Award-Winning Tutors serving Marquette, WI

...UW as well. Education has always been important to me, and tutoring allows me to share that passion with others. I first got into tutoring through a volunteer program in high school, and I continued to tutor during my undergraduate studies, which was some of the most rewarding work I've ever done. My engineering background has allowed me to take a wide variety of math and science courses, including Caclulus, Physics, and Chemistry, a few...

...that in order to give useful feedback to a student I need to observe and listen to them just as much they need to listen to me. Only then can I see what they need help understanding and how best to approach explaining it to them by building on their strengths. I think it's important to allow students time to think about problems and try to approach them on their own before giving them guidance...

I have a lot of experience teaching & tutoring and have completed a wide variety of standardized test with excellent scores.... Start by trying to achieve a broad understanding and refining it as needed.... Introduce myself, meet the student, and identify areas of strength and weakness.... Short breaks, fun problems.... Ask leading questions until the student understands, and then try to build a deeper understanding.... Try to make the passage seem more approachable or put it...

...I am currently working on my doctorate in Environment and Resources at Wisconsin-Madison, studying tiger ecology and conservation with sub-field foci on predator ecology, and modeling population dynamics. My tutoring strategy is to tackle topics of highest combined difficulty and priority first, and to do so in a manner that accommodates both myself and my student. I've found in past teaching experiences that the most rewarding and meaningful results come from direct engagement with students,...

My name is Garrett Tusler. I am a graduate from the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities with a degree in Spanish and a minor in Teaching English as a Second Language. I have teaching and tutoring experience in both fields and I am excited to meet with you and discuss personalized lesson plans and work with you towards your goals in language learning!

...their goals in science and math courses. I enjoy being a resource to help students struggling in math and science, as these subjects can be difficult to understand. I employ a variety of strategies including mnemonic devices, physical manipulatives, and drawings/diagrams to accommodate different learning styles. Typically, I have the students attempt to solve a problem and then ask leading questions whenever he/she gets stuck. If the questions are more conceptual in nature, I start...

I connect with people best through sharing ideas. The majority of my spare time is spent trying to simplify or find alternate proofs of basic theorems to make them more intuitive.... Focusing on beauty solves many problems a teacher faces. If I am attending a lecture about The Great Gatsby, I will be eager if the speaker tells of the beauty she sees, rather than a quick and dirty type of analysis. I regularly talk to...

...student of the world, but I miss interacting with young students. I love teaching because I love learning, and I want to help other people find that same love of learning that I had growing up, because that guides me through life. I especially enjoy teaching writing and math. I'm sure this is heavily influenced by the fact that I learned those skills from two of the greatest teachers I ever had -- my mom...

...pushing me to challenge my students equally. I currently tutor math and computer science as part of the GUTS program, and analyzing different solutions to the same problem help me understand people better as I get some insight into their thinking, which helps in building strong relationships. This also makes the tutoring less about trying to memorize concepts to pass a test, but to properly engage with the content, so that it can further be...

...was in elementary school and I love helping others out. One of the best feelings in the world is seeing a student finally understand a subject or a concept after a lot of hard work. I believe anything is possible with some patience. I absolutely live by the phrase slow and steady wins the race. I will make sure every student I work with will understand every subject down to the tee, no matter how...

...on my ACT. In my free time I play basketball, listen to music, write programs, and watch movies with my friends. I specialize in math and science of all kinds, I really love teaching biology, chemistry, and physics. I also can prepare students for the ACT. As a sophomore I have already taken physics, calculus, biology, intro chemistry, and organic chemistry. I believe I am able to break down very complex ideas to make any...

...the study aids that are available on the market for every standardized test that I teach. While this isn't a great strategy for everyone, I find that my knowledge of the tests and the best study materials/methods is far deeper after having gone through all the work by myself than if I had had help. I know what doesn't work, but more importantly I know what does. It's my job to make your life easier...

...90% over the last four years. Also, I am really good at teaching computer programming and my specialty is Java. I've taught "AP Computer Science A (Java)" for many years and am the lead author of the "5 Steps to a 5: AP Computer Science A" review book published by McGraw-Hill. I love to see my students learn. My students tell me that I'm really good at motivating them since I get so excited about...

...2016. I graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in May of 2016 with a BA in English Literature and a certificate in Global Cultures. I'd love to help with any ACT/AP English prep, as well as any other English-related teaching services required. I believe learning works best when the subject becomes relevant for the student, not just as something they "have" to learn, but as something that can help make life worthwhile. Learning should be...

...will help them to advance in their studies. I am good for this job because I have patience, I know different ways to explain concepts, and I know the subjects that I am trying to explain. I have been a tutor in the past and achieved good results from students. I have experience with math and science subjects since I studied Biology, Engineering and Administration at a University level. Outside of academic work I like...

Over 5 years of tutoring experience with elementary and middle school children with various subjects from math to chess to writing. Strong believer in positive feedback and motivating the students. I would describe myself as a friendly, high motivated teacher and student!

As a Health Coach I use motivational interviewing to help clients feel empowered to make decisions without being judged or feeling inferior. It is very rewarding to aid clients in the learning process and to celebrate...

...experiences teaching secondary social sciences in Wisconsin. Again, the demographic was predominantly special needs and students at risk. Licenses and certifications are essential elements of any teacher's portfolio. Experience gives life to the titles; however, the skill to build functional and compassionate relationships makes a teacher. Above all else, a teacher must be genuine and connect with a student in a way that demonstrates to the student they are important, capable, and entitled to the...

...have been able to help someone who struggles with academics. In my academic years I was an introvert. It was very difficult for me to engage in questions in the class setting. I am certain I would have benefited from a tutor for some of the difficult classes I had to take to earn my science degree. It is my greatest wish to help students who may struggle as I did in the classroom setting.
