Award-Winning Tutors from Arizona State University

Hi, I'm Jake, a graduate of Arizona State University with a bachelor's degree in Finance and a strong passion for teaching. My tutoring journey began in high school, and since then, I've been committed to helping students of all ages achieve their academic goals. Mathematics is my favorite subject to teach because it allows me to hone my analytical skills while simplifying complex concepts for others. I believe that learning math should be a practical experience, so I often relate it to real-life scenarios. My approach is highly adaptiveevery student learns differently, and I tailor my methods to fit their needs. When working with students who lack confidence, I start with tasks they can easily manage and build up from there. I've seen how this approach can transform a student's attitude toward learning. In addition to my passion for teaching, I'm focused on advancing my skills in analytics and finance. Tutoring not only allows me to help others but also sharpens my own skills in math and analytical thinking. I'm a firm believer that teaching is the best way to learn. I hope to inspire my students to become lifelong learners who question everything and see the world from multiple perspectives. Math may be black and white, but life is full of shades of gray, and I aim to help my students navigate both with confidence. If you're ready to take your understanding of math to the next level, let's connect. I'm excited to help you succeed!

I love to have fun while tutoring! Whether it's a silly example or anoutrageous pneumonic device to remember a concept, I like to have agood time while we learn. It doesn't have to be like pulling teeth. Ialways look forward to my tutoring sessions! I am an MBA graduate fromthe Arizona State University W.P. Carey School of Business which isconstantly ranked as one of the best MBA programs in the nation. Ireceived my undergraduate B.S. in Business - Accountancy from EasternIllinois University. Now, I work as a Financial Analyst for PetSmartperforming testing and measuring the financial effectiveness andimpact of proposed new store initiatives. The best part is bringingour pets to work on Fridays! I've tutored everyone from Jr. High toCollege in Business, Statistics, Accounting, Economics, Math, andother subjects. I also took part in a Supplemental Instruction Programwhile completing my degree that can best be described as a TA/tutorhybrid program. I enjoy spending time with my family, baseball,traveling, and running... and tutoring! :)

I am a passionate English teacher who happens to also have a strong algebra and geometry background. I believe in helping students become successful in whatever area in school is needed. In my 26 years of being a teacher, the only failure is in not trying, so encourage you sometimes to think outside of the box and find ways that will help you be successful as a student.

My goal as a tutor is to enable students to understand and learn the subjects of chemistry, mathematics, biology, and physics. I achieve this by using an interactive step by step approach to learning, working with the student, answering questions as we go along, rather than just lecturing. This interactive step by step approach works well for learning how to do calculations and understanding concepts. My qualifications include two Bachelor of Science Degrees from Arizona State University and I have over 2000 hours private tutoring experience. I'm also the published author of a General Chemistry Tutorial Workbook (ISBN: 9780975906606). Thank you, and I look forward to working with you.

I am interested in bettering your educational experience in the Life Sciences, Chemistry, and Math! If you or your child is struggling with math or science courses or, perhaps, is preparing for a standardized test that requires application knowledge in these areas then I may be the guy for you! I am also interested in tutoring individuals who are working towards acceptance into a professional school that might have been out of school for a while.I have experience in private tutoring to elementary/middle school through college level students in math and the sciences and have helped many achieve goals that seemed unattainable. I have done this by establishing what areas of the subject are most troubling to students and focusing on them by using a variety of different sources. I have many textbooks and class notes, manuals, etc. that the students can use to have multiple viewpoints on the same subject.I also believe that a person learns best when they are able to recap and teach the subject to another individual. Therefore, I provide not only the details in a subject, but also a bigger picture motif that enables the student to make real-life connections with what they are learning and gives them enough understanding to be able to "teach" the topic.As someone who recently graduated Arizona State University with a B.S. in Microbiology, I understand the hardships that many students must face in large classroom learning environments and so I can relate to younger or more mature adult students. I have much experience in working in a lab setting where application and science work in tandem so I realize the necessity in flexibility and the importance in explaining the exceptions to the rules that we learn in science.My studies have led me to pursue a career in dentistry and I will be beginning dental school at UCLA in the fall so I am also an ideal candidate for more specialized test prep. such as for the DAT, OAT, PCAT, and MCAT. I am also available for ACT test prep. and I am flexible and open to new endeavors and experiences!

I am currently a student at Arizona State University studying for a Bachelor of Science in Exercise and Wellness. I have many younger siblings, and therefore, have been a tutor my whole life. I love helping people to grasp new concepts and see that light bulb go off in their head. Knowing the joy of tutoring I have helped multiple classmates, friends, acquaintances, and family members in almost every subject. I now tutor people in math, chemistry, and anatomy. Math, however, is my favorite subject to tutor. There is nothing more rewarding than helping someone finally realize the difference between sine and cosine or finish a homework problem that has trapped them for hours. I tutor in a style of patience and confidence building. I firmly believe that with enough practice and self-confidence, anyone can become a "math person". Outside of academics, I love sports. I enjoy pickup games of basketball, football, and volleyball with friends. I also love going to the beach and traveling to new places.

I have been an educator all my life. My passion is teaching music. I love to connect students with their musical abilities and help them gain confidence in their own skills.

I am a graduate of Harvard University. I received a dual Bachelor of Arts in Astrophysics and Earth & Planetary Science.

Working with students is one of the most rewarding jobs that anyone can do. I strive to be a valuable stakeholder in the education of next generation. I have 6 years of teaching and tutoring experience across the four core academic subjects (ELA, Math, Science, Social Studies) with a strong educational background in social studies. I graduated with my Bachelor's from Arizona State University with Honors and ahead of schedule. Although I have a bias towards math and social studies tutoring, I do tutor all subjects at the secondary (6-12) level. I believe that all students should be given the flexibility to succeed and that every learning style must be accommodated for.

I'm dedicated to creative expression and helping those who need it find a way to get their ideas out of their heads and onto the page.

I am a bio-medical engineering student with a minor in mathematics at Arizona State University. I absolutely love science and mathematics and look for any opportunity to help others to understand why these subjects fascinate me. I am currently in my senior year at ASU; I have a 3.96 GPA, and I am married with two young boys. For the past two years I have been working for the University Academic Success Program at ASU helping students excel in math, physics, and chemistry. Those I tutor come from a diverse background and often require assistance with advanced topics within the aforementioned subjects. Prior to starting my academic path, I spent 8 years in the Army. Half of my military career was spent as an air defense coordinator, and the other half as a respiratory therapist. I have a very broad set of skills and life lessons that I fall back on when I tutor. In my youth I was disinterested in education, and I joined the military when I was 19 because my grades did not leave me with many other options. The Army gave me the opportunity to rethink how I look at the world. I want students, especially young students struggling to find meaning in what they are doing in school, to grasp the impact that education can have in their lives if they embrace it.

I attend Arizona State University as an undergraduate student working towards a degree in Biochemistry. I am passionate about learning and helping others learn.

Hi there! My name is Jen and I live in the Pacific Northwest with my spouse, my dog, and my two cats. I have a combined 10 years of experience tutoring elementary - early high school students how to read, write, and establish a strong foundation in mathematics. Professionally, I support folks with intellectual and developmental disabilities learn employable skills, find employment, and maintain it.

I recently graduated from Arizona State University after attaining both a Bachelor's and Master's degree in biomedical engineering. These degrees gave me a strong background in many academic subjects, particularly science, math, and writing. As a student I worked as a math tutor at ASU's math tutoring center, giving me experience tutoring students 1 on 1. Additionally I worked as a camp counselor for kids ages 4 - 15, as well as a manager for a small company comprised of teenage workers, so I have much experience teaching and working with kids of all ages. My passion for academic tutoring and helping others improve their academic skills led me to Varsity Tutors, where I love helping students improve their academic and study skills and make improvements in their classes.

Although I believe classes and tests are very important, what I value most are the opportunities for practical experiences that I have had in my preferred subjects. Having the ability to use what I have learned in realistic settings has helped me to learn how to apply what I have been taught and shown me what areas to focus improving on.My hope is to help all the people I tutor to gain confidence in their subjects, and to be able to use said subjects in a 'real world' setting.

A Physics student, music lover, and photographer. Against my will, in the course of my travels, the belief that everything worth knowing was known at Arizona gradually wore off. In this respect my travels were very useful to me. "A method is more important than a discovery, since the right method will lead to new and even more important discoveries."--Lev Landau.

Having over 10 years of experience as a second language educator at the novice and intermediate level, from the K-12 age group to the university, I have learned to keep in mind external factors that affect the students’ development as a second language learner. My approach to this issue has always been and will continue to be proactive, involving the cultivation of a positive rapport with the students, creation of positive and safe learning environment and a high emphasis on the content of the material. When the students are provided with comprehensive activities that are interactive, culturally significant and meaningful to everyday life, they are more likely to be motivated and focused on applying what they know from various aspects such as cultural appropriateness, prior knowledge from life situations and other disciplines to assignments or cumulative projects, rather than when they are instructed to complete individual disconnected activities that tend to bring out their frustrations and flaws in an isolated context as they are not directly presented with the significance of the tasks.

I am a junior at Arizona State University and am pursuing a degree in Social Work with a minor in Mathematics. I completed two years in Civil Engineering, until I realized I wanted a people oriented field that enabled me to aid people in various situations; thus switching majors. I have previously tutored in a middle school, high school and online environment - and have also worked as a college mentor for different ASU programs. I am excited to keep on tutoring in mathematics and helping students understand and learn, not just memorize. There is potential for any dreams of any student to come true that is why I enjoy tutoring, and I want to be the support and encourage and to prepare the students. My hobbies include but are not limited to hiking, swimming, meeting new people, trying new foods, expanding my knowledge by learning new things and living the adventure that life is. I really enjoy and am excited to help students and invest my time and resources in a great investment - our future leaders and generation!

I have been a chemistry and biochemistry tutor for past 5 years, and have tutored both privately as well in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at Arizona State University. In addition to working as a tutor, I currently work as instructor at Glendale Community College and Paradise Valley Community College. In the fall I will be starting my first year of medical school in Philadelphia. With that being said I have plenty of experience and knowledge with material presented in pre-med, pre-dental, and pre-pharmacy course work and have tutored many individuals who are pursuing these fields. My subjects include general chemistry, organic chemistry, and biochemistry. As a tutor, I encourage individuals to think critically and logically when assessing difficult problems. My overall goal as a tutor is to break down difficult concepts and simplify the information for my students, not only making it easier for them to understand but increasing the likelihood that they will remember the information long term. I truly find great joy in helping students grasp the difficult concepts presented in their core science classes and seeing them become more confident in the process.

I have extensive experience in English, Writing, communication, public speaking and classroom teaching. I have been trained and educated in effective public speech, rhetoric, persuasive argument, and humor.

I have been teaching math for the past 5 years. I am an expert in all maths Algebra and below, and am very passionate about teaching. My favorite approach is to explain in various ways and randomly quiz to make sure the topic is known even in the middle of another thought

Veteran and motivated educator looking to help students achieve their short-term and long-term goals. Experience teaching grades 1-12, as well as Special Education. Graduated from University with a 3.9 and currently hold a 4.0 while pursuing a Graduate degree. K-8 content specialist, 9-12 Special Services teacher, and 3-12 Standardized Testing tutor.

I firmly believe that language arts and writing help us understand, interact with, and express ourselves to the world. Mastering these skills will improve your relationships, opportunities, and hobbies. I can't wait to help you on this journey!

I am majoring in Biological Sciences (with a concentration in ecology/biology), and also have a minor in French. I have been a tutor on and off for many years, working with students in the 6th-12th grade range, along with several college level students. I love helping people succeed in difficult areas of study, like math or science. I firmly believe anyone can do well in these courses! Not just the "smart" kids. When it comes to math, I think that it can be difficult to succeed in a school system that only favors certain types of learning. This puts some students at an unfair disadvantage. Everyone can be good at math! It simply depends on how they're being taught the material. Currently, I tutor in Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Statistics and Geometry at all levels. My approach to teaching math is to really take it slow, and to never rush my students. Based on a combination of what I see in frequent tutoring sessions and what I review in completed supplementary homework, I will adapt my lessons to better fit the student- whether that means spending extra time on a certain topic, or moving forward to newer material. Science, just like math, tends to be a subject that can be very frustrating! Similar to math, the way science is presented in a lot of classrooms isn't a good fit for comprehension for a lot of students. I utilize the same approach as I do with math when it comes to science- take it slow, and really evaluate how my student is doing. I am passionate and love science, and I want to help students find that same understanding and appreciation for it. I currently tutor in Ecology, Chemistry, and Biology.

I hold a B.S. in Mathematics from Arizona State University and bring over a decade of professional experience to university-level mathematics instruction. As a CRLA Certified educator tutoring since 2013, my methodology focuses on building a rigorous conceptual understanding of the mathematical architecture rather than relying on rote memorization. I specialize in dismantling complex gatekeeper courses, including Calculus, Differential Equations, Discrete Mathematics, Finite Mathematics, and Statistics. When students hit a wall in these advanced subjects, it is rarely a lack of effort. It is almost always a breakdown in foundational logic. My remote sessions utilize a premium digital whiteboard workflow to meticulously map out exact logical pathways and repair these foundational gaps. This first-principles approach rebuilds analytical independence and guarantees absolute precision for engineering, business, and advanced science applications.

Hello, I am a robotics engineer from Arizona State University. I truly love making an impact on people's life, and helping them achieve success. Together we can do anything we put the work to.

I am a Psychology major at ASU, graduating December 2015. I have a lot of experience teaching including being a teaching assistant for a psychology 101 class of over 450 students. I created exams, study guides and ran study review sessions.I am very friendly and personable and love teaching all subjects, but psychology is my favorite. I know everybody learns differently and I love figuring out which teaching styles work best for each student. Psychology involves many theories and abstract concepts so I find it helpful to provide real world examples that can help my students really understand. Personally, I learn best when I can receive the information from multiple sources. So when I teach, I like to do the same, taking material from textbooks, power points, silly videos, or even TV shows to further understanding. I also believe that teaching a concept really helps the learning process. I encourage my students, once they have mastered a topic, to try to teach or explain it to someone else. Being able to do this really means you fully understand.When I am not tutoring, I like to go long boarding or play my electric guitar. I love going to concerts and my favorite genres of music are alternative and hardcore. I also have an interest in fashion and photo shoots.
