Award-Winning AIMS Tutors serving Tucson, AZ

...remember, I have had a love for teaching. In elementary school I would come home in the afternoon and 'play school' with my stuffed animals, creating and grading worksheets for them. Throughout school, I continued to take every opportunity to assist friends and classmates. Now, in graduate school, I have had the opportunity for training in teaching strategies and philosophy, as well as hands-on work assistant teaching undergraduate psychology courses. I find that I am...

I am currently student teaching 7th grade English in Tucson. My educational journey at Northern Arizona University to become a certified teacher with a degree in psychology is nearly complete. I have experience tutoring students with various abilities and interests for differing lengths of time. I look forward to meeting you!

...and learn rather than to teach them information directly. This means that I ask a lot of questions and help students find the answer on their own. Hence, my goal with tutoring is to help the student develop enough skill at learning to make the tutoring unnecessary. I am currently working toward a Bachelor's in Sciences in computer sciences from the University of Arizona, after which I will get my Master's of Fine Arts in...

...up for some intensive tutoring--3 hours a day, 6 days a week, for one month. On a grading scale (UK), where a score of 75% or higher is an A (and I was hoping to reach the 75% mark), I scored a 100% on my final exam. I was shocked, amazed, and ecstatic. I felt empowered to pursue any field of higher study. The tutoring that I received helped fill in the gaps and solidify...

...in handy. The past 6 years I have been teaching high school where I have tutored for standardized testing with the goal of increasing test scores. I currently enjoy teaching all levels of high school English and Art. I believe in focusing on the objective on hand while treating every student as an individual. Extensive knowledge and high test scores are worthless if the teacher cannot impart that knowledge on the student. I do this using...

...clear argumentative writing. I also had a chance to display my passion for charting the development and influence of big ideas through History. After returning to Tucson, I completed a teaching credential in secondary (7th-12th) education from Pima Community College. With my MA, I am most qualified to teach Philosophy; however, I am "highly qualified" according to the State of Arizona to teach a wide range of subjects, including English, Social Studies, History, Middle School...

...the most progress possible. Effective studying involves efficiency, effort, focus, and most of all, having a passion for the material. Having been a student myself for so long now, I feel very well equipped to provide each student with the best tutoring experience possible. When I'm not in the research lab or tutoring students, I'm usually hiking, climbing, reading, or watching films. I began bouldering last year, and it has become a passion of mine....

Hi! I'm a recent graduate with a degree in Psychology. I have a passion for learning and teaching, and an understanding of individual learning styles. I love helping a student figure out what they need to succeed and watching them do things they never though they could!

...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 try to strike a good balance between learning,...

I am a passionate educator with a love of learning and teaching! I have three years of teaching experience (grades 1-5) at a technology school.

I hold all students to the highest expectations and believe that all children are capable of success.... My philosophy is centered around the core concept of...
