Des Moines Math Tutors

Hi all, I am a recent graduate from the University of Iowa, who studied economics and finance. I'm currently work in financial services as a financial analyst. I have tutored all levels of math throughout high school and entered college studying economics-it's my passion. Throughout college, I tutored students in accounting, macroeconomics, microeconomics, calculus, and statistics. I have experience with technology and software utilized in today's business environment-excel, crafting emails, power point, Bloomberg, Zoom, and many more. In the past I volunteered as a salsa instructor-my passion for teaching others started here. My teaching philosophy is simple, "simplifying concepts to where anyone can understand". Just like in business-less is more. Given my experience, I believe I can help your students develop an understanding of math, economics, but I can also help them develop the skills needed to think critically about what they learn and apply that in their day-to-day lives.

I love to learn. I will provide you or your child with an engaging and fun learning experience. I have always had a passion for teaching. In high school, I volunteered with a 2nd grade classroom during my free periods from 2011 to 2012. In college, I tutored stage lighting. From the fall of 2018 to spring 2019, I worked with the Schiller Park School District, in Schiller Park, IL, as first a substitute teacher and then as a paraprofessional at Kennedy Elementary School. I assisted in the self-contained special ed. preschool classroom as well as working with students K-3rd grade in the elementary special ed. classroom. Currently, I am a tutor part time at Huntington Learning Center in King of Prussia, PA. I am comfortable tutoring reading comprehension, phonics, vocabulary, reading strategies, English, U. S. history, and writing grades K to 12. I also tutor math grades K to 6th grade.

Hi! My name is Matthew and I am originally from a small town in north west Iowa about 90 miles from DSM. I graduated from Iowa State University with a degree in elementary education specializing in math. I have been out of teaching for two years, and have since pursued another career. I worked at a small private school in West Des Moines starting as a 5th grade teacher, and transitioned to a math teacher for grades 3rd-8th. Please contact me if you have any questions or if you would like to discuss possible services. Thanks!

I have worked with students through my time throughout college, both in the school setting and out of the school setting. I spent my last year in college tutoring after school. I have experience teaching and tutoring math, reading, and writing. I have a teaching license and teaching endorsements in reading and special education. My full time job is as a K-4 special education teacher and I am available to work with students after school or on weekends. I understand with the current times you may not wish to have someone come into your home. I am more than willing to set up online tutoring sessions or if your child is struggling with a specific topic or area I can create pre-recorded lessons for that area.

I was a lifeguard for 4 years and a swim instructor for 2 years. I have taught group and private lessons to ages 6 weeks-12+ and adult. I will be a mommy-and-me swim instructor in the fall and am very comfortable with all skills levels and ages. My teaching training includes water safety skills such as treading and safe entry/exit, and also focuses on swim team techniques. I am also available for subject tutoring in areas of reading, basic math and American Sign Language skills. I was a student mentor with Everybody Wins Iowa while in high school and am comfortable with elementary aged children. I am working towards my Bachelor's Degree in Environmental Policy and Planning with a background in Engineering.

Hi! I'm Jayne! I'm am a local photographer of families and art. Most of all I'm a huge lover of kids! Up until a year ago I was a nanny for two AMAZING children. Sadly for me it was time for them to start school/daycare so I'm no longer able to nanny them. Now I've decided to go back to what I love and look for a new amazing family to be apart of! If I was YOUR nanny, I would be love to give these services. - create a loving and happy environment for them. - teach them basic skills such as math, reading, colors, etc. (I did this with my last family and it helped a lot!) - take photos of them everyday and send them as updates to you so you never feel like you're missing out on precious time with your babies -drive them to school, classes or events - take them out to do fun things such as scavenger hunts, going on hikes and more! We will NOT be watching tv all day. - clean and cook for your children so you're allowed to come home to a stress free zone.

I am a middle school math and science teacher looking for a family during the summer months. I have had previous experience in caring for children outside of my two years of teaching. I come from a large family and have always loved caring for my many nieces and nephews. I adore pets, being active, and cooking and baking.

I facilitated online learning for a Kindergartener learning under the hybrid model. Subjects included: Reading, Writing, Math and Science. I am here to help your child identify their learning style, develop personalized study strategies and troubleshoot on tricky subjects. I am passionate about helping your child find the ways that they learn best. As a young student, I received tutoring and that experience not only filled in the gaps I had in my education, it taught me about who I was as a learner. With me, your child will not only spend specialized attention on the subjects they need, they will learn how to use their natural strengths to find success in areas that prove a little tricky.
