Award-Winning ACT Science Tutors serving Vancouver, WA

I previously worked as a credit recovery online teacher in Denver, CO, and San Diego, CA. I recently moved to Portland with my husband and am hoping to return to teaching once the pandemic is over next year. In the meantime, I want to continue working with students in my community, doing what I love best: teaching!

My name is Tara and I am a rising junior at Vanderbilt University where I'm double majoring in Engineering Science and Economics and double minoring in Scientific Computing and Business. I have plenty of experience in the college application process as well as in internship recruiting. I have interned at Nike and Facebook.

...have been tutoring math and test prep on and off for several years, since I graduated with my Mathematics degree in 2005. I also recently completed a second bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering. I like being a tutor because I enjoy helping people find a connection with the world through math and physics. I also enjoy working with students of all ages and backgrounds to find a learning method that suits them the best.

...suit of mine, but I also enjoy trigonometry. I believe that teaching is about building a comfortable but professional relationship with each student. It is part of my job to come to understand each student and to be able to educate each of them in a personalized manner. Every student is an opportunity to mentor. Education is not only about learning academia but also about developing socially and morally. My goal is to build helpful...

...graduating, I hiked from Canada to Southern Oregon on the Pacific Crest Trail before going home to Georgia and teaching adult volunteers to be informed and effective monitors of absentee ballot processing during the election. I am a proud product of Atlanta Public Schools, and I think that every student has a right to an engaging, eye-opening education. I enjoy teaching many subjects, including SAT prep, Math, Science, and Reading, but my biggest passions are...

...that anyone can understand a concept if taught with the right method. Math often becomes blurry to students, and they give up. My goal is to show them that math is not some magical unknown subject, but has very specific rules that tell you how to get the problem done. It can be very satisfying and even beautiful when something clicks in your brain. I intend to share that with students, so they can become...

...any student I work with, to build and maintain trust, and I work with them off of that base. I understand that all people have distinct learning styles and needs and I try to anticipate those needs and account for them in any lessons and practice I do. My passion is special education, as I believe every child has more potential than we know and it is our responsibility to help unlock it.

...and be able to apply what they have learned when encountering new problems and questions. When I'm not working I spend my time hiking at the Sandy River Delta with my husky puppy, Kili, or whipping up new vegan recipes. I love to read, especially modern fiction and historical biographies, and try to travel as much as I am able; my most recent trip was to Italy, and this winter I am heading South to...

...and raised in Portland, OR, but I currently live in Rhode Island, where I'm working towards a Bachelor's Degree at Brown University. If there's one thing to know about me, it's that I love to learn, no matter the subject. Learning is a life-long process that can take you anywhere in life. But this doesn't mean it's always easy. It would be my privilege to help you overcome the obstacles you encounter on this journey.

...chemistry, and piano. I have strong interests in many different subjects. I had the chance to work with and observe a biology classroom while I was taking my education course in college. In high school, I also tutored elementary students and loved being able to help them get excited to learn. I am extremely passionate about my love for education and would love the chance to get to know and help out any and all...

I am a second year naturopathic medical student. I'm originally from the Midwest. Whenever I have time, I love reading, running and cooking! I also enjoy hiking and exploring the PNW as much as I can.

...learning and show definitive progress. My end goal is to help students understand their work and thrive in academic environments. I am currently getting my honors bachelor's degree in Business Information Systems with minors in Writing and Computer Science. My interdisciplinary background allows me to understand the thinking of each student and tailor my plan to their needs while maintaining knowledge in various fields. While I tutor a wide range of subjects, I am most...

...sign right up. I tutor a bit of physics and computer programming as well. Test prep, too. But who am I? I am a math music philosophy nerd. I love Gauss almost as much as I love Bach and I love Bach almost as much as I like Hegel. So chat to me about that stuff if you are so inclined. But you want to just chill and have homework help? That's quite all right,...

...I've had experience working not just as a high-school tutor but as a kindergarten and pre-K teacher. In my opinion, a good tutor needs not only to be knowledgeable, but sensitive to the ways that every student learns differently. I am prepared to work with my students, at their own pace, to ensure that they aren't just completing the work, but fully understanding and internalizing the material. Other than tutoring, I enjoy going to school...

...reader's undivided attention. This sort of writing does the work for the reader, bringing them exactly where the author wants them to go. The reader would likely not be able to put their finger on it, but it is this level of behind the scenes writing mechanics that makes a piece truly great. This knowledge was hard earned. In the arduous process of learning I discovered and was taught many techniques that helped me along...

...additionally began helping peers with their writing difficulties. I believe every student can be an outstanding writer or test-taker, the key is just to find the right individual approach. Students aren't all alike and there's no one right way to learn. I really value the chance to find the method that works best for each student and to watch them succeed. Outside of tutoring, I am a musician and social media consultant. I enjoy hikes,...

Hi! My name is Mason and I am currently a medical student at OHSU. I have been tutoring for 10 years, and worked throughout college as a math tutor. I've been living in Portland for two years, and am a Oregon native, growing up in Bend. When I am not in school I enjoy spending time outside hiking and running.

...of specializations including employee relations, leaves of absence, multi-state payroll operations, and legal immigration. I am a graduate of Yale University, with a passion for helping students gain admission to their college of choice through admissions essay review and feedback. My teaching style involves learning new concepts by way of real life examples and scenarios, good humor, and a no-stupid-questions mindset. I always encourage my students to pursue the manner of learning they find most...

...past few years, I have also tutored students independently, primarily focusing on Algebra/Algebra 2, Physics, and Chemistry. Students have often said that I am a very clear, patient, and thorough tutor. I believe it's important to let students do as much of the work independently as possible so that they stay involved in the learning process, and I also find it valuable to relate previous knowledge to new material. But most of all, I just...
