Award-Winning Physical Chemistry Tutors serving Tucson, AZ

I am a physical chemist with 14 years of industrial experience, one year of US government experience, 15 years of undergraduate chemistry teaching experience, 5 years of postdoctoral experience, and 20 years of military experience.

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.

...me throughout to improve my teaching skills. My experience teaching various levels and branches had helped me immensely to tailor my methods to best fit different individuals. However, I enjoy teaching general chemistry to undergraduate students the most. I believe in chemical thinking to generate curiosity among the learners and motivate them to learn chemistry. I strongly encourage the "active learning method" as my teaching strategy in order to improve their critical thinking, problem-solving, ability....

...is my favorite subject to tutor, as it marked the point in my academic career where I began to actually enjoy math. My tutoring style is one that values fundamental understanding and critical thinking. I would rather a student walk away with a deeper understanding of their material, rather than a list of memorized steps. On a more personal note, when I am not pursuing math and science, I spend my time geeking out with...

I enjoy helping others learn and understand what they are being taught. There is no right or wrong to do something.

...and for myself as an educator. By staying updated with the latest trends in education, technology, and career development, I am able to offer materials and guidance that are relevant, innovative, and impactful. I take pride in my ability to connect with students, build trust, and foster an environment where learning is not only about grades but about growing as a thinker and a problem solver. My goal is to help students achieve their academic...

...courses for the Chemical Engineering Honor Society. From that experience I learned that having a solid understanding of the basics is the best way to learn new concepts. As a current student I understand the struggles that many of you are dealing with. I can bring a fresh perspective to these topics, and share what helped me to succeed in these courses. Outside of school and work I like to hike, cook, and play soccer.

...areas, I found that I was most passionate about teaching Calculus and General Chemistry. In helping struggling students prepare for Standardized Tests, together we always seem to have the most fun (with remarkable advancements) prepping for the Critical Reading and Writing portions of the exams. While tutoring, I try to not only teach students how to do the problems they are struggling with, but how to understand the underlying concepts and how they fit together...

Experience includes over ten years of lab and field based applications of chemistry, biology, and engineering principles to help achieve environmental quality standards. I have held project management positions responsible for the development and execution of standard operating procedures, health and safety plans, data collection, analysis, and summarization. Analyses and research has been conducted on regulated and emerging organic and inorganic contaminants in soils, submerged sediments, drinking water, wastewater, surface water and ground water systems...

...on my knowledge and skills to people in need. During my time at Pima, I found myself the most helpful when I tutor in Chemistry and Math. Math is a subject that has a special place in my heart; chemistry can be related to our everyday life, which sparked my interest. I believe that any question asked is a step closer to understanding the material, and I encourage my students to ask any question that...

...dynamics, and mechanics of materials. One of my favorite subjects to tutor was algebra because often I was working with students who were coming back to college with a memory of hating math. I made sure to take extra time and care with these students and while doing so, I got to watch as the light bulbs would go off and their dislike of math began to change. I understand that math and physics can...

I have 5+ years of experience working in STEM education, specifically for Biology and Math. I have worked with both middle school and college-level students. My goal is to create an encouraging and nurturing environment so that students are able to find the fun that is intrinsic to learning.

...an individuals 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,...

...I understand the difficulties many students undergo during the semester and with my guidance I can help students understand difficult concepts in interactive and collaborative new ways. I am passionate about helping others, I believe in guiding students to find their own way of learning, to develop transferable skills they can use in the future. Each of us learn in a different way, it is just a matter of finding what best works for us.

I recently completed grad school with a degree in geology. I have a broad background in the physical science and math. I look forward to helping you out with standardized tests, math through calculus, chemistry, and physics.... Anyone can master any subject with enough time and the right teacher.... I ask the student what they think they are having issues with and work through some general practice problems to try and determine exactly what subjects need...

...and I am excited to help you achieve you or your students academic goals. I received my Bachelors degree in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology from the University of Arizona. I am also currently pursuing my Masters in Environmental Engineering. I have multiple years of experience tutoring and am presently teaching high school juniors. I am very patient, passionate about my field, and understand every student learns differently. I look forward to helping you master your...

I have been tutoring for over two years. My main subjects are any math below calculus 2 and general chemistry. But, I have done some tutoring for English and reading as well! I am currently a freshman at The University of Arizona and I'm working on a Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering. I'm very outgoing and I always try to adjust my teaching style based on how the student learns best!

...to discover it for themselves and they understand why it works. Ultimately, I enjoy teaching because both the student and I can simultaneously improve in a process that never ceases to make us better. When I'm not teaching, I enjoy pretty much any activity that gets me outside, especially if that outside happens to be in the woods or near the beach (I am from Florida after all...). While outside, I usually find myself running...

...Bachelor's degree in Cognitive Science and Biochemistry & Cell Biology. I have served on admissions interview committees for Rice and Baylor College of Medicine, have mentored and edited essays for numerous college and graduate school applicants, and served as a private tutor and classroom instructor for Advanced Biology and Chemistry courses for 3+ years. I am passionate about creating custom, individualized teaching plans for each student. Feel free to reach out for any math, science,...

...science courses at the University of Michigan. Post-graduation, I have continued to tutor full-time in addition to doing research through the Michigan Clinical Outcomes Research and Reporting Program. I believe that all of the students I work with are intelligent, but often lecture-based learning does not fit their personal learning style. I love working with students to bridge this learning gap, helping them to genuinely understand course content and master homework and exams.... I am very...
