Award-Winning AP Physics 1 Tutors serving Tucson, AZ

...at least 4 scores of a 5 (I have yet to hear back about 4 tests). I am a national merit finalist. I have tutored my peers and underclassmen in the past, generally in math, and they told me that it greatly helped them. In my free time, I like to read novels, run, play with my dog, go hiking, do art projects, play the trumpet and swim. In high school I was in band,...

...year through the UofA's Center for Recruitment and Retention of Mathematics Teachers. During this course I was mentored by two high school teachers who had me help during their classes. This experience gave me a good base for designing lessons and introduced me to common problems students have and how to work past them. After completing this course and earning a listing on the math department's website, I tutored through the rest of my college...

...background includes Advanced Placement workshops in Calculus AB & BC, and Computer Science and Statistics. As well, I have participated in many National Science Foundation opportunities in Math and Computer Science. I have taught AP Statistics, AP Calculus AB and BC, and Computer Science A and AB (when it was offered). My rate of passing for all AP courses is over 90% ( and over 50% scoring a 5). I am currently retired from the...

Hi. I was a data analyst for 20 years in the corporate world, and now I am transitioning to being a secondary math/physics teacher. I am passionate about learning, and hope to bring a fresh perspective to these subjects.

...However, they need to be taught some simple basics on how to read for comprehension, write using evidence, problem solve using diagrams, and finally, study using a strategy. When any deficiencies have been addressed within the subject area, then the student becomes capable of understanding new concepts and then continuing successful progress on their own. As a tutor, I will make every effort to identify the student's deficiencies that need to be strengthened while maintaining...

I graduated with a B.S. in Physics and currently work as an electrical engineer as I pursue my M.S. in Electrical Engineering. I am a scientist at heart and enjoy helping people find their spark in learning. My approach to learning which has helped many students is to teach proficiency in the skill, followed by, or in parallel with, explaining the concept from as basic a principle as the student would like.

...with a Pre-Law emphasis. I have been a tutor for my entire high school life and love working with students in many different age ranges. I also love engaging with academic material in a different perspective and love to be of help to students struggling to understand what they learn in class. I have mostly tutored in physics, math, and have plenty of experience in critiquing and peer-editung essays through my AP Seminar and AP...

...is easy for me to relate to those who are at a loss in regard to physics. In high school, I was one of the many students who are heard to say, "I'm just not good at math." Through practice, however, I was able to vastly improve my problem-solving abilities. As a tutor, I want to share this experience with others, and show them that instead of thinking "I'm not good at math," they should...

I graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with a Bachelor of Science in Physics. I work with students in a variety of subjects, including Math, Physics, and Chemistry. I have experience working with students on the Autism spectrum and with ADHD.

I am currently a third year physics student at the University of Arizona. I have prior tutoring experience, and can cover many topics in math and physics. Outside of school I like rock climbing, hiking, camping, and snowboarding.

Anything worth doing doesn't come easy. That being said, my goal is to make true learning as smooth as possible, and hopefully, we'll have some fun in the process.

...interest in that subject, so my first goal is to always help a student discover what they think is interesting about the subject. Once an interest is formed, appreciation and understanding easily develop. My approach to tutoring subjects that center around problem solving, such as Chemistry and Physics, is to go over a variety of example problems and learn all the different methods to solving such problems. For subjects with more abstract concepts, such as...

I'm an ASU engineering student and I love teaching physics. I've worked as a Teaching Assistant in the Engineering department teaching Statics and I want to make Physics more approachable for other students. I can explain a Physics concept or problem in a dozen ways until it makes sense to you.

...favorite subjects are Calculus and Chemistry, but I have proficiency in tutoring and teaching most of the pre-med courses such as physics and organic chemistry. As a final note. I was born and raised in Brazil before migrating to AZ. I have been heavily involved with education since I started college. For part of my volunteer time, I would help international students feel welcomed in university given that I used to be a foreigner myself.

I'm almost a doctor! Ask me anything! I studied Human Physiology in college in addition to all the pre-requisites for medical school. I'm a 4th year med student now and can answer any questions related to that as well :)

...have. I'm a National Merit Scholar with a 35 ACT score, and I have years of experience tutoring in math. I can cover a variety of subjects ranging from elementary math, to pre-Algebra, all the way up to Calculus. I also specialize in test prep, especially relating to the ACT and SAT. Furthermore, I have multiple 5 star reviews from previous students, so you can guarantee that you'll be in good hands!

...to high school here in Tucson at Catalina Foothills and I studied abroad in Vancouver Island, Canada for two years, completing the I.B. diploma. My philosophy of education is focused on sharing my own passion for a subject and developing a similar appreciation in the students that I work with. I believe that this passion is essential for effective learning to happen, namely learning should never be rote memorization that fades away after an exam...

...education, I was employed as a physics tutor, assisting students with physics and mathematics coursework, where I honed skills in conveying information effectively to students at all levels. I also served as a teaching assistant, providing instruction in the use of telescopes and related lab equipment. I also have experience in the instruction of student musical ensembles, and can maintain a professional and productive learning environment. I look forward to assisting you with your educational...

...them feel what it really means to be ignorant about another's culture. It was my ability to develop imagination that changed the image that my classmates had on Africa; for most of them, "google Africa and you will find monkeys, gorillas, and war." The projection of personal identity can be very challenging especially for immigrants in the United States, as seeing through my personal experiences. One way to project personal identity begins with the refusal...
