Certified ACT Math Tutor in Washington
...approach is to work with the student to first understand the problem and then to logically think through the process of solving it, thereby more fully learning the material. I am a big fan of drawing graphs and figures to understand a problem. In addition to working with numbers, I love the outdoors and enjoy backpacking, hiking, and Ultimate Frisbee. I am also a dork who indulges in jigsaw puzzles, sci-fi/fantasy literature, and card games.

...something else, creating a more complete picture. It's therefore always important to have a solid grasp of the basics - to understand the previous steps - before learning each new topic. My approach to tutoring thus focuses less on memorizing formulas and more on understanding why these work and how you can arrive at them yourself. I have always enjoyed being able to help other people and my somewhat unique outlook on mathematics, coupled with...

I use familiar analogies as needed to paint a picture of the models students should imagine to successfully solve problems and wrap their heads around the concepts. After learning with me, you will be able to navigate any problem because you will know the subject backwards and forwards, from the ground...

...worked as a classroom tutor in various Los Angeles high schools, tutoring a variety of subjects ranging from English to Physics. Of the subjects I taught, my favorite is definitely Math, and Algebra in particular. Because many students struggle with Algebra, I find it satisfying to help students understand concepts and build their foundation of knowledge. Working in classrooms was great, but I am excited to be able to work one-on-one with students and build...

Charles: Washington ACT Math tutor
Certified ACT Math Tutor in Washington
I am recent graduate of the University of Notre Dame with a passion for education and experience in multiple teaching arrangements as both a student and an instructor (such as Oxford tutorials, Goethe Institute German language classes, seminars, and standard tutoring). I have a background in working with children in after school programs and camp counseling and want to share my energy for learning in a professional environment.... A successful education starts with the right motivation. I aim to uncover that motivation through asking what students hope to achieve and placing those goals at the start of the learning process. If students have a strong sense of "why" they want to learn, "how" to learn becomes a matter of clear communication, diligence, and effort on part of both the teacher and the student.
