Award-Winning Trigonometry Tutors serving Maple Grove, MN

...for IB subjects as well. I often led study sessions and tutoring sessions as the officer of Outreach for the Society of Physics Students at UF. My main motivation for tutoring is simply that I love physics and math, and find them immensely beautiful. I want to share that love and illustrate concepts visually and intuitively rather than through mechanical computation. There's a quote I can't track down along the lines of "Do not attempt...

I enjoy teaching math because to the student who doesn't understand, it is a riddle with no answer. By teaching them how to recognize the type of problem and how to decode the clues, the student gets to be on the other side of the riddle, the side on which they solve it and feel good about it.

A former math teacher in Minnesota, I moved to North Carolina to do more dancing and see a different part of the world. I've worked as both a math teacher and in banking, so I know what you need to know for 'real life.' Most recent subjects taught: Algebra 1 and 2, Pre-Calculus.

...abundance of novels that stack up precariously on every surface in my room, causing occasional avalanches. Throughout my education I've frequently made use of online resources like khanacademy, letting me learn more about math, physics, and other subjects than I could through school. However, sometimes it was difficult to find the resources I needed to learn as much as I was capable of learning. I chose to tutor on this website so that I could...

...am committed to finding effective strategies for facilitating understanding for each student, rather than just process. Special notes for Competition Math: I placed first in the Twin Cities (St. Paul / Minneapolis, MN) HS league twice, with one time being a tie. I qualified for the AIME twice exam via high AHSME scores. I was on the MN state ARML team twice. I have also sat the Putnam exam, a college-level competitive test.

...to facilitate their learning and school engagement. I have graduated recently enough to remember what school and class are like. It's an exciting time in life, but it can bring challenges too, at any level of education. That's why I'm here to collaborate with any students who can benefit from my tutoring. I hope to show clarity, professionalism, and respect in helping students master their work and continue to feel eager about learning.

...the science section is that it's not really about science knowledge -- it's about the ability to quickly absorb and synthesize information and recognize patterns. All the background a student needs is to understand the principles of the scientific method. I help students to recognize the different types of questions and passages on the Science ACT, and to understand what the test is looking for. A common exercise I have students do is to identify...

I am a current Ph.D. student at the University of Minnesota studying social psychology. I received a B.A. in Psychology and Mathematics/Statistics from Luther College in 2016, as well as completing a minor in environmental studies. I was a math tutor for three years as an undergraduate and worked primarily with first and second-year undergraduates in Pre-calculus and Calculus I.

I believe a fundamental understanding of math and science allows students to properly analyze any situation and learn how to obtain solutions. I will work with all my passion and energy to impart fundamental understanding in order to enable students to think critically and solve problems in unique ways.

I graduated from Lawrence University with a B.A. in both math and physics and a minor in computer science. I have experience tutoring high school students in calculus and helping college students with their homework for intro physics and math courses. I love math and enjoy helping others understand and master concepts that they are struggling with.

...I have had extensive training on the subjects of Music Theory and Ear Training exercises, I am also a capable Math tutor! I have long held a belief that Math is the music of the universe, and would be excited to help with your everyday homework or help you prep for the SAT exam. Math can be just as beautiful as a Mozart Sonata, or a Puccini Aria, and I try to convey not only...

...so strongly in the ability of education to transform students' lives, and it is always my hope that my passion rubs off on the students I work with so that they might become lifelong learners themselves. I would describe my teaching style as "supportive independence" since I believe strongly that students will struggle to learn if they don't feel supported but will never become self-sufficient learners without a teacher guiding them to independence. I typically...

...teaching or tutoring, but I have also been trained in techniques for tutoring all subjects included in standardized tests, especially the SAT. My tutoring style comes from my firm belief that a student will grow when they genuinely have their interest piqued, and the best way to do that is for their instructor to genuinely show passion and interest in the subject in order to pass that excitement on to their students.

...a lot of subject matter while working as a teacher, and this has helped me relate to students the best by understanding the learning process they are going through. My goal for students is for them to be confident with everything they learn and to know how to get the best scores on their exams. To help students understand difficult topics, I will often draw or write my own examples that are not included in...

...begin my Ph.D. in Mathematics at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. I have worked as a tutor (ranging from middle school to high school/SAT math) since 2010, and have also enjoyed tutoring other subjects, such as SAT English, physics, and chemistry. I am extremely invested in making challenging topics less intimidating and am happy to work with students of all levels! I have worked as a math tutor since 2010, and really enjoy working...

...to ignite a passion for these areas in other students as well. I have personal experience in tutoring for the ACT. I scored a 36 on both the reading and English portions of the ACT. I was also ranked in the top 5% of students who took the PSAT. Essay writing is another specialty of mine. I have qualified for the National Speech and Debate Association tournament and have helped students write speeches and essays,...

...fulfill my desire to become a math teacher. Most of the decisions that I made throughout my life were influenced by my mentors. Now, I've been teaching for more than five years and have found a great fit with Connections Academy. I continue to focus on one important attribute to high teacher efficacy, which is the notion that even under the most extreme circumstances, I believe that students can learn math no matter what. In...

...to go to graduate school and study molecular evolution. For the last 12 years however I have been a middle and high school teacher. I have taught a large variety of subjects in that time though chemistry (all levels) and genetics are my favorite. I prefer to begin tutoring with a new student by asking a lot of questions to help me identify the key reasons for their struggles. Depending on the nature of their...

...that will help enhance people's lives. The most challenging thing facing society right now is education. Education is the power of knowledge. With it, we can change the world we live in and create a better future. As a tutor, I can empower young adults by creating a base knowledge of concepts that they can apply to solve more complex problems. As a chemical engineer, I have seen the application of these concepts and I...

...moved further up on the ladder of education. I have interest in studying things related to mathematics. Mathematics broadens the knowledge and makes one thinks deeper and sharper. Mathematics is used as an essential tool in many fields such as natural science, medicine, engineering and economics. This motivated me to study science in the senior secondary school and to major in Agricultural Economics at the undergraduate level. I obtained my elementary and high school education...
