Sam
Physics professor who loves one-on-one tutoring
I am a physics professor at the University of Arizona. I found out during the pandemic that I really like online teaching, and I realized that I sincerely miss all the one-on-one tutoring that I used to do at earlier stages in my career. Putting the two together (online tutoring) has been really rewarding for me. I especially enjoy teaching advanced topics like general relativity. When taught correctly, general relativity is an amazingly accessible subject, given its profound implicatio... Read more
Kaushal
Experienced Math and SAT/ACT Tutor
Hello! I'm KB, a senior at UArizona with a 3.97 GPA. I have worked part-time as a private tutor for 6 years. My goal as a tutor is to eliminate my students' need for a tutor in the first place. To do so, I address the most common root cause: Students aren't taught to think critically and adapt on the fly to problems they haven't seen before. Instead, they're taught to memorize solutions to cookie-cutter problems. My solution: I heavily emphasize understanding of core concepts and the "wh... Read more

Encouraging and Knowledgeable Tutor in Medical School
Reflecting on my teaching journey, personal experiences have shaped me as a tutor and medical student. As a General & Organic Chemistry Supplemental Instruction (SI) Leader, I crafted lesson plans, fostered a supportive environment, and instilled confidence in students' chemistry knowledge. At Kumon, I worked with 50+ students, using assessments and customized assignments to address their gaps in math and literacy, witnessing their growth and reinforcing my belief in tailored instruction. ...

Vinyas
Experienced Math and Physics Tutor
Hi, I’m Vinyas! As a graduate of a STEM-focused high school, I’ve taken advanced algebra, calculus, and physics courses for years. In my experience, these subjects are often filled with rote learning and obfuscated explanations, to the detriment of students. When I teach, I try to explain abstract concepts in an understandable and relatable manner, whether it’s showing the link between integrals and addition or torque and opening doors. This builds a deep, intuitive understanding of mathemati... Read more

I had a lot of experiences working with children and students both in China and here in the U.S. Since I came to the U.S, I’ve been a Mandarin teacher at a Chinese cultural center. As a volunteer teacher, I taught the Maliping Mandarin Class for different grades, the Advanced Adult Mandarin Class and Chinese Calligraphy Class. I interacted with students with different levels of Mandarin skills and also learned a lot from several experienced teachers. I believe that my language skills and ... Read more

I am currently in the process of applying to the MS Applied Geo-Spatial Sciences program at NAU. I have taken the majority of the course work needed for the degree (24 out of 36 credit hours).

Paul
Experienced, Understandable and Memorable Math Tutor
One of my teachers of graduate probability at UCI was Ed Thorpe, who wrote the book on how to beat Las Vegas at blackjack. Hopefully your teacher will be clearer than he was. Probability is the mathematics of chance. Theoretical probabilities are based on a ratio of the number of ways a certain event can occur to the number of ways anything could Read more
