Award-Winning Tutors in Scottsdale, AZ

...student's understanding of a topic was faulty. Over time, however, I developed a keener sense for the hurdles that students sometimes face when learning, as well as the most efficient ways to overcome them. I also developed more patience and empathy through tutoring - I often remembered feeling the same confusion about a topic that my students were feeling the first time I had learned the material. The skills and perspective I developed through this...

...the insect exoskeleton. I also earned my Master's Degree in Biology at ASU, and I described 10 species of weevil (snout beetle) that were completely new to science. As part of my degree program, I have taught several different science classes. One of my favorite parts of being a doctoral student has been teaching and working one-on-one with students. To me, there is nothing more rewarding than seeing something 'click' for a student. My interdisciplinary...

...it means deviating form normal techniques. I have tutored both kids and peers in the past. I have found that for kids, especially in mathematics, relating to something they enjoy makes the experience more enjoyable. Regarding peers/college level students, I can relate to them very well, because I have been through exactly what they're going through and I believe the number one trait is patience. I never rush a student and treat them with the...

...others out. Recently, I have volunteered in hospitals, as well as partaken in many formal tutoring programs, such as a class in my high school in which the subject material was the best way to encourage and motivate students for long term success. As a tutor, my goal is to instill confidence in students, develop a curiosity for the world, create a fascination for the fundamentals, and imbue motivation for learning from within the learner....

I like helping my students figure out their own learning styles and then helping them maximize on their strengths. I tutor a wide range of subjects but the sciences are my personal specialty. I am fascinated with the building blocks of matter and love learning and teaching about them. If you need help with biology, chemistry,...

...SAT, and GRE. I have nine years of tutoring experience, tutoring students from elementary age to graduate level, as well as working with students with special needs. I particularly enjoy tutoring mathematics, biology, and helping students prepare for standardized tests. I can also tutor in writing and reading, since I have experience as a professional copy editor. My focus when tutoring is student understanding. I believe academic goals are more readily achievable when concepts are...

...I have a passion for teaching and helping people with this beautiful language. I am originally from Morocco, which is a French colony, and go to France almost every year to meet with my friends. I also studied philosophy in French and love discussing the French culture with anyone who is interested in learning more. I have over five years of experience in tutoring and teaching and I am more than happy to help anyone...

...research involving public health related water microbiology, specializing in Legionnaires’ disease. Education is a passion of mine. I hope to one day become a professor and am actively involved in a number of science education outreach programs, most focused on K-12 STEM exposure. In addition to working as an Arizona State University Writing Center tutor for three years during my undergrad, I have provided private tutoring in a variety of subjects over the last 12...

...and strongly believe that an educated world is a better world. If I can help with that mission in any way, I'm excited and motivated to do so. Since I was in elementary school, I was always the "go-to" girl to help others in my class. I have found that I have a natural gift for helping people feel good about themselves (kids and adults alike) and have translated that gift in my work as...

...love teaching and have always enjoyed helping others be successful. I love all subjects, but I love history the most. Teaching is my passion, but I do expect students to be able to have a fun and structured learning environment. I've realized that students do best with consistency and genuine care. I try to make my classroom fun and structured! My students get to enjoy their learning experiences and I get to enrich their learning...
