Award-Winning GRE Tutors in Phoenix, AZ

...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 understood, rather than formulas memorized. When helping students prepare for standardized tests I...

...Phoenix over the past few years, and am excited about sharing my knowledge and passion for learning with others in the area.I have a knack for explaining complicated ideas to people in simple terms, enjoy deepening people's understandings of issues, and value education highly.

...for LyondellBasell in New Jersey. Between these positions, I returned to my undergraduate campus in Indiana. I performed research for one of the leading professors in my engineering concentration and often tutored co-workers in college math and physics classes. While studying for the GRE, I developed my own study system and approach which has been passed on and used by several friends. My teaching style can be best described as knowledge gap identification. I believe...

...school, but was interested in learning about the ancient civilizations of Greece and Rome. I developed tailored lessons plans for him, helping to teach him Greco-Roman mythology, Roman history, and Latin translation skills, and planning additional challenge assignments drawn from my Classics major and thesis in comparative mythology. To further supplement his education, I also worked with him to prepare for a number of contests in the Classics; within a year of starting this experience,...

...my students! I love the feeling of helping a young learner gain confidence and independence in their learning skills and subject matter. My personal philosophy is that any subject can be fun, we just have to figure out how to make it so! My personal style is to use what the learner is interested in to make the subject more fun! Who says you can't use Pokemon to teach math, Minecraft to teach science, or...

...to my tutoring: every student is different, and I adapt my teaching methods to those differences. The most important thing I do is make sure each student understands what they're trying to learn, not just tricks to get through their homework. If there's some basic skills missing, I make sure to go back and polish those up before getting back to the main problem. At the end of the day, I want the student to...

...and citizen, I strongly support the importance of education because of its ability to empower and improve people's lives. I have made it a priority of mine to tutor in my community as it allows me the opportunity to give back to the students of Phoenix. Given my affinity for problem solving, mathematics teaching, character development and building personal relationships, I am a great candidate to help you progress your learning and advance your thinking.

...standardized test prep. From high school to Stanford, I have learned that lectures are often difficult for students to follow. They can lose confidence in subjects because the information is not presented in a way that is effective for their learning. My job is to work with students to figure out the best way to learn challenging material. This may involve breaking down complicated ideas into consumable parts, discussing concepts back and forth, or working...

...them to be the best they can be. I graduated from Texas Christian University with a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre and Psychology, and I am beginning a Master of Fine Arts program in Theatre for Youth and Communities at Arizona State University in Fall 2020.

...to be solved. When working with young learners, I see myself as tutoring not just the child, but the parents as well. I want to equip learners with the tools they need to be successful outside of our sessions. I have experience working with students with a variety of special needs, including ADHD, autism, behavioral issues, and lack of motivation. My approach to test prep sessions is to equip students with the best strategies for...

...disorder. The subjects I tutor are varied, but I focus on statistics and mathematics through pre-calculus along with test preparation and essay writing. I am also available to tutor psychology and German (beginner- and intermediate-level). Although I enjoy helping students improve in all subjects, I find that tutoring for standardized tests offers particularly rewarding experiences given the potential impact on students' future academic endeavors. My teaching style involves helping students find their ideal learning style...

...the world. My favorite part of tutoring is helping others express themselves, and my methods get results. I have had many students come back to me again and again to help them with assignments due to the positive feedback they have received on assignments I've helped them with. I also have firsthand experience as a test-taker, having taken the ACT, PSAT, SAT, LSAT, and GRE and received above 90th percentile marks on all of them....

...and making light bulbs go off in students mathematical learning. I was a full time high school math teacher in Northern California for two years, but came to realise that I missed the individual attention that tutoring gives. Math is not an easy subject for many individuals, and with the new common core standards many students are seeing their math brains being stretched in multiple ways. I aim to break down math material into small comprehensible...

...in real life experiences. The experiences allow better integration of abstract concepts into reality, concreting what you know and leaving you with a desire to find out more. I attended college at Northwest Missouri State University and received a B.S. in ACS-accredited Chemistry in 2008. I have therefore had a lot of chemistry, including organic and p-chem as well as algebra, trig, geometry and multi-variate calculus. While I was a tutor for the Chemistry/Physics department...

At UMD I worked in the Veterinary Medicine department as a grant manager, and at Stanford I worked in the Radiology Department at the School of Medicine...

...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 tutoring experience have certainly made me a better educator.

...to what they observed on such events and places. I got my bachelor's degree in biochemical engineering at the Technological Institute of Merida, located in the south of Mexico. A great area to be exposed to natural phenomena and the outdoors, which was the perfect scenario to study sciences at the highest level.
