Tutors

I teach hundreds of students every semester. With degrees in physics and mathematics, and minors in biology and computer science, I became an interdisciplinary science graduate student at Arizona State University (ASU), where I completed a Master's Degree in Bio-Electrical Engineering. I seek to undo the damage and negative effects students often suffer/endure from poor teaching practices. I strive to replace this distaste with a passion for the fundamentals of the subjects, just as a long line of teachers have done for me. I am constantly researching new ways, and inventing new tools, to teach. Currently, I am writing a book that will make these creative teaching ideas available and inspire further progression in education. Please contact me for professional, high-quality, state of the art tutoring. My extensive background knowledge of how language, art, and science intertwine allows me to appropriately teach children or college graduate students. Here is a brief summary of my teaching experience: 1. Private Math, Science, Language, and Writing instructor and tutor: 14+ years. 2. Over the past 14 years I've developed a specialty helping students with disabilities and learning disorders, most especially (I have extensive experience with) ADHD, but also Dyslexia, Anxiety, Autism, Spectrum Disorders, OCD, OCPD, PTSD, Vision Impairment, and others. 3. Math & Science Tutor Staff: (a) 6 months as a volunteer in a Chandler-Gilbert Community College (CGCC) tutoring center. (b) One year as an employee in CGCC tutoring center. 4. Mentor for Wildcat Middle School 8th Grade Science Classes. 5. Physics Student Mentor - I assisted incoming freshmen students with their transition to the University of Arizona (UA) physics department. 6. Physics Factory Assistant - Helped UA math professor perform exciting science demonstrations and experiments for visiting junior high students. 7. Physics Undergraduate Council - I assist with the retention of UA physics undergrads by offering support and guidance. Represent the interests and needs of these students when meeting with the department head and faculty. 8. My family used to run a summer school for kids. As a teenager, I was a (fun) math teacher for 3 months every summer! 9. I come from a long line of teachers. My mother, both of her parents, and their parents dedicated their lives to education and teaching. 10. I have also tutored foreign students (Italian, Indian, Vietnamese, Chinese, Spanish) in English pronunciation, writing, accent reduction, et cetera. 11. Graduate Teaching Associate: 3 years. I currently teach hundreds of undergraduate students each semester at Arizona State University, while working on a book about science education, with aspirations to become a college teacher and educator.

I am seeking to work Tu-Th with two or three families who have preschool-aged children (3-5) and are seeking structured care comparable to, or exceeding in quality, that which would be found in a childcare center. I am currently a preschool teacher at a center on campus and prefer to work exclusively with a small group of families. I would like to focus the day on early math and literacy, inquiry-based science experiences, and open-ended arts experiences. Prefer a home environment, provided by a family that can host the group consistently. Availability between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 5:30 pm,

Greetings! I am a certified teacher who has taught pre-K through 8th grade. I love children and seeing their self-confidence skyrocket! Let me help you help your child!

I am a certified teacher with bilingual (Spanish) and ESL endorsements. I hold an M. S. Ed. as well as a B. A. in English and Spanish. Whether you are an adult learner wishing to make dramatic progress in less time, or you are looking to boost your child's academics, I can definitely help you out! I taught full-time for many years, but now I split my time between being a stay-at-home mom and a self-employed tutor. I provide thorough assessment, create individualized lessons, communicate with school staff, and give you ways to extend the learning throughout the week. I'll keep it positive, fun, and meaningful. All levels of ESL, all subjects pre-K-8, high school English and Spanish. $40/lesson at my home or $45 at your home or public place. I do days, evenings, and weekends, but I'm especially looking for adult students or others interested in weekday daytime appointments (generally at my home in Brookfield) starting this fall when my own kids are back in school. Any q's, message me!

My name is Jared. I was born and raised in Lake Charles, LA. I have over 10 years of experience tutoring math and other subjects to students of all ages and backgrounds. I have had numerous success stories, gaining positive feedback about my ability to make math seem much simpler than previously thought, and my ability to understand different learning speeds. I graduated from Sowela with an associate's degree in Accounting and I currently have a career in the field, enjoying every bit of it. I have tutored many students in accounting and computer courses such as Word, Excel, and Access as well.

Have you ever felt like you've hit a wall that you can never seem to surmount when it comes to your studies? If you are constantly struggling with your academics, investing large amounts of time into your schoolwork, only to get C's in return. I received a B. S. in Cognitive Science at the University of California - San Diego. I have considerable experience in the management of ADHD, first and foremost my own. I have dealt with the trials of having ADHD my whole life. Over time, I'll prove to you that it is not only very manageable, but that you can do way more than you thought you could. I additionally have experience tutoring people with Dyslexia, Asperger Syndrome, and helping slow learners in general, especially math. If you're tired of the same grade, the same teachers, and the same lessons allow me to be your tutor. I've worked with little kids, teenagers, adults, and the elderly. My first session is always free. James

I've tutored high school students in everything from algebra to geometry to AP Calculus, and college students up to Calculus II and statistics. Math isn't work to me; I love it, and any time I get to explain it, it's super easy for me to get excited! I've found this really helps me in making the experience of tutoring the subject fun and engaging for my students. The challenge of explaining a concept in just the right way is a fascinating one, and I really live for the moments when I see that glimmer of understanding; it s the best! When I'm not tutoring, I'm studying! I'm a math major, but I'm also a competitive public speaker and debater, so I've got the linguistic skills to really help elucidate concepts! Looking forward to teaching you some math!

Hello! My name is Chris, and I am a Senior at the University of Central Oklahoma. I am majoring in Applied Mathematics, with minors in Statistics and Economics, and will be graduating this Fall! I was placed in Advanced Math when I was in 6th grade, and made A's in every single math class I ever took after that point, up to and including AP Calculus BC. In the 4th grade, I was able to solve 100 addition, 100 subtraction, 100 multiplication, and 100 division facts in 6 minutes. Additionally, I made a perfect score on my Algebra 2 End-of-Instruction exam when I was in high school, and have been the recipient of numerous mathematics scholarships/awards in college. Mathematics has always been a huge passion of mine, and I know from my own experience that having people around me that have a great passion for the subject helped me to get to where I am today, and I would love the opportunity to help your child do the best that he/she can! I am mostly available in the evenings and on weekends!
