Award-Winning ACT Science Tutors serving Scottsdale, AZ

I believe in teaching so that my student learns the material in a way he/she is comfortable with. Anyone can impart knowledge but a good teacher imparts knowledge in the most compatible way so that the student doesn't just learn, the student will understand.

...a variety of subjects, but my favorite subjects to tutor are writing and grammar. For the last three years I have tutored almost exclusively in college-level essay writing. I believe every student has the capacity to be a great writer. In each tutoring session, I teach concepts and principles of writing that students can apply immediately and for future writing assignments also. I also enjoy helping students prepare for college admission tests. I am a...

...last semester studying in Prague, Czech Republic, travelling extensively and broadening my perspective. I also received the Flinn Scholarship, a prestigious full-ride award given to 20 of the best and brightest students in Arizona out of a pool of nearly 600. My tutoring style is 100% student-first. I want to make sure we're operating exactly at the level and pace where the student feels comfortable, and using educational techniques that work for this student in...

...students I tutor, helping them realize their skills and increasing their confidence in the material. It is extremely important for me to see my students succeed not only in school, but also in the other activities that they pursue. When I am not at school or working in my lab, I like to rock climb and boulder (mostly indoors), read books, participate in the occasional yoga classes, and I absolutely love doing jigsaw puzzles.

I am a mechanical engineering student at Arizona State University. I tutor algebra, calculus, and physics.

Hi! I am currently a sophomore at UCLA studying computer science. I am very passionate about tutoring as I love making education fun for kids and have experience working in the tutoring field. I worked at Mathnasium for two years tutoring students of various mathematical levels and currently participate in a tutoring club at UCLA.

One thing I've learned in my years as a student is that very few people learn material in the same way or at the same pace. This is why I love tutoring! A student must be given the tools they need to learn in whichever way is most beneficial for them.

...I graduated, I decided it was time to move somewhere with a warm winter. I had visited Arizona before and my favorite baseball team, the Cleveland Indians, play Spring Training games in Goodyear. So, I knew it would be a good place to go and have been teaching ever since. I taught in Casa Grande, then the West Valley for several years. Since the 2016-2017 school year, I have been at Paradise Valley schools teaching...

...a chronic adventure-seeker and a lifelong learner. My favorite aspect of the current landscape of education is the use and implementation of technology. It allows us to explore, connect and be free. With my current dissertation, I am hoping to prove that the modern student may actually learn more efficiently in an online environment. When I’m not teaching, my passion is spending time with my wife and my family traveling, fishing, surfing and most importantly,...

...my four years in high school that connected high school tutors with peers, middle school students, and potentially students from an underfunded local elementary school in attempts to make academic help more accessible. I tutored in a number of different math classes at the time. In college, I worked with a tutoring agency to teach 6-12 year old student Python, Java, Scratch, and Web Development. My goal is to help you learn concepts and solve...

...a landscape contracting and maintenance company and have owned several other businesses...I am a serial entrepreneur. I believe in community service, serving my community as an elected city council member (3 terms), Board President of the YMCA, and twice President of my local Rotary club. I have discovered a passion for mentoring and teaching, as it connects me with a younger generation. My greatest tutoring success story is my daughter, who just graduated from Columbia...

...ability, eventually you will be presented with a problem that stumps you. When this happens school becomes frustrating, annoying, and dispiriting. I am very familiar with these emotions (having spent hours agonizing over singular homework questions) and can empathize with any student who feels the same. However, challenge is a requisite for growth. As a result, I do not coddle students but instead push a student past their comfort zone so they can flourish in...

...me. Tutoring helped put me through university, and I intend to continue to help others succeed in academic and artistic endeavors for the rest of my life. As a dedicated tutor, I am committed to fostering a supportive and engaging learning environment where every student can thrive. With a passion for education and a belief in the potential of every individual, I tailor my approach to meet the unique needs and learning styles of each...

...learn, all while helping others learn, too. I am most passionate about math and English/grammar, and I think those are very foundational subjects for higher education and potentially your career! I have experience tutoring ages ranging from preschool all the way through college. I am very familiar with both the content and the application of content toward test preparation (ACT/SAT). I am a nationally certified EMT, and I have experience working in the field, so...

...sophomore level math classes as part of my membership in the Institute of Industrial Engineers during my years in college, and have worked in an elementary school environment where my duties as a technology coordinator occasionally required me to instruct students. For me, the biggest thrill in any job is visibly seeing that "light bulb moment" as someone crosses the boundary between confusion and understanding. Thank you for taking the time to consider me for...

...at Urbana-Champaign and love helping people out in all math or science areas. When working with students, I think it's very important to understand that everyone has strengths and weaknesses. I want each session to be a positive and enjoyable experience and have the student leave thinking, "I really understand this much better, and maybe it wasn't so hard after all." If I can do that and instill confidence in my student, I consider it...

...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 focus on taking practice exams and working with students on the areas they need the most help. Outside of school I enjoy hiking, gardening, reading, and cooking. I like to explore new ways of doing things and being outside. I like to...

...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 Percy Jackson to teach grammar?

...to tutoring is fostering independent learning. Tutoring should never be just giving a student the answer to a problem. It's about encouraging critical thinking: asking questions about the problem designed to allow the student to draw their own conclusions. This process both builds the student's confidence in their knowledge of the subject and sets them up for future learning when a tutor may not always be around. I am very easy to reach and will...

...a Master's in Trumpet performance. After graduating from NAU I came to Peoria. I am currently the Director of Instrumental Music at Peoria High School. I teach Concert, Jazz, and Marching Bands, Orchestra, Math, and I spend a great deal of time helping my students with history, government, and English as well. As a teacher I strive to develop in my students, free thinking, and analytical skills. These goals are primarily achieved through a Socratic...
