Christian Homeschool Tutors in Glendale, Arizona (2026 Guide)

Glendale has a real bench of homeschool families across the West Valley — Arrowhead, Peoria border, Deer Valley, Westgate — and the Christian tutor pool has grown to match. If math, reading, writing, or high school sciences have become a battle, a tutor is often the fastest fix, and Arizona's ESA covers the cost.

Why Glendale Families Hire Tutors

The three most common triggers:

Math has stalled. Usually Saxon Algebra 1, Math-U-See Zeta, or Teaching Textbooks Precalculus.
A struggling or dyslexic reader. Orton-Gillingham, Barton, or Wilson-trained specialists.
A student with an IEP or special learning needs — ABA goals, adapted materials, executive-function support.

A tutor is not a school and not a co-op — just a qualified adult meeting with your student a few hours a week in one subject.

Christian Tutors Serving Glendale

Two local tutors currently in the directory:

Sara Delgado Tutoring — Dyslexia-trained tutor with 26 years of experience. Elementary math, reading, and writing plus high-school math through Algebra 2 and Business Math. Hands-on, individualized approach for a range of learners.
One Kingdom: Special Education Services — In-home teacher and tutor serving Preschool through post-secondary students with IEPs. Targets IEP and ABA goals, adapts curriculum, and builds vocational, independent-living, and daily-living skills for students with mild-to-severe intellectual disabilities.

Beyond these, most Glendale families source tutors from three additional channels:

Their co-op — Classical Conversations, Scholé, and other Christian co-ops maintain informal lists of trusted tutors.
Microschool teachers — Teachers at Glendale Christian microschools commonly tutor in afternoons and on weekends.
Online tutors — For high school math, Chemistry, Latin, and test prep, online works well and expands the pool statewide and nationally.

Arizona ESA for Glendale Tutors

Tutoring is an approved Arizona ESA expense. Individual tutors need at least a high school diploma; tutoring businesses need accreditation or a signed attestation. Payment through ClassWallet — direct pay if the tutor is a registered vendor, otherwise reimbursement with an itemized invoice showing tutor name, date, subject, hours, and rate.

Special-education tutoring is explicitly allowed for ESA students with disabilities, and awards for those students are substantially higher than the standard award.

Vetting a Christian Tutor in Glendale

Ask about their statement of faith and teaching background.
Confirm subject specialty and grade-level fit.
For dyslexia or IEP support, ask specifically about training (Orton-Gillingham, Barton, ABA, IEP experience).
Ask for homeschool-family references specifically.
Confirm ESA vendor status or reimbursement flow.
Do a trial session before committing.

Tim Ansley Music Lesson(The Psalmist)

I've been blessed to have been able to use the God given talents in music to play trumpet and auxiliary percussion for 50+ years. I had the privilege to have had opportunities to play in many different settings, professionally and voluntarily with most of my time spent in worship settings at the church my family and I attend.I was the instrumental music director at a private Christian school for 6 years and ran 2 different music schools catering to home school families. I teach Private Music lessons focusing on all brass instruments(trumpet, trombone, tuba, etc.), auxiliary percussion, and young elementary recorder. I teach beginning and intermediate levels on most brass and percussion, and up to advanced level on Trumpet. I will teach private and some mixed groups. I can come to your home school group meetings also to hold lessons. I look forward to serving your families and helping to train up your children in their God given talents.

Forsaken Cowboy Tutoring

I'm a software developer with 7 years of experience. I have been an instructor in computer programming at both STEAM Studios AZ and iCode. I've taught robotics and drones, web development, game development, Scratch/Blockly, and 3D Modeling. I can help students learn how to use cloud and AI tools, if that's wanted. I also have the ability to teach enterprise level development using many different types of technologies: cloud services, containerization, container orchestration, software pipeline development, Git or subversion, microservices, databases, logs, and testing. I'm also skilled in cyber security. I worked for a short period of time as a Security Operations Center Analyst, triaging tickets and diagnosing potential threats. I've held a cyber security certification for 8 years. I would be happy to train your child in blue teaming. I individualize my learning plans to suit the needs of the student. Younger children will likely start with Scratch or Blockly, and robotics, so they can see the way programming affects the world around them. Older students will focus on more abstract topics, using what they learn to create websites and other programs. I have access to various hosting services that can help us host a website for free. The most exciting part of teaching is seeing when a struggling student catches on to a topic and excels. As a Christian, I ensure a family friendly environment for my students and can teach them at your home or in a public location in Metro Phoenix. We can discuss availability, but I'm most likely free in the mornings and all day on Saturdays.
