Award-Winning Algebra Tutors serving Beaverton, OR

...for the subject and not someone who just have good grades (although I have both!). I want to help if you are confused, lost, or overwhelmed with all the information you have to know. When I teach, I like to be clear and organized, so I can effectively guide you through the complex concepts rather than let all the information boggle you down. I like lists because long paragraphs just become a messy pile of...

...projects. Ideas are applied to writing, mastery of mathematical processes or performance techniques. Feelings of confidence motivate kids and stretch into other parts of life—problems become challenges to tackle, rather than disappointments to avoid. Gaining mastery is supported by trust. Setting achievement goals is risky. Students need to trust their teacher and themselves. Building trust and relationships is another one of my chief strengths. I believe kids learn in a system of relationships and in...

I am a current undergraduate student at Wake Forest University and I am majoring in Political Science and minoring in Psychology. I primarily tutor high school students in literature and writing but I also tutor students in Algebra (middle school and high school level). As a tutor I incorporate visual learning with a clear structure and notes to help students gain the most from each session.

To me teaching is all about getting the light bulb to go on. People have different learning styles; the tutor's job is to determine the most effective learning style for each student.

...the last three years teaching at a camp and developing a passion for informal education. I enjoy seeing the moment of realization when a student understands a concept that they have been struggling with.

My college physics classes gave me a chance to utilize...

...Having grown up in Puerto Rico, I am fluent in both conversational and academic Spanish. Over the past five years, I have taught a variety of physical science courses at the collegiate level to both pre-college, college, and advanced high school students from which I have cultivated a strong student-centered teaching philosophy based on responding to the needs of my students. While I tutor a variety of subjects, my favorite is Geology because it allows...

...needs it, tutoring various friends and neighbors throughout high school. I love to tutor Math, Economics, and Physics because there is so much to explore in these subjects and so much relation to the "real world" that it is enjoyable to see students discover the usefulness of these studies. In my free time I love to go on hikes, play any sport I can find, and nerd out over all the recent Baseball Statistics.

...my coursework in Spanish. Since graduating in 2019, I have worked as an Americorps volunteer in a bilingual (Spanish and English) elementary school. Until Covid, I was teaching math and reading to children who were falling behind in normal classroom settings, as well as running an afterschool program. I have worked extensively at summer camps in both New England and the Portland area (Oregon Zoo and Portland Children's Museum). In my free time, I love...

...that every student has their own learning style, strengths, and challenges. That's why I tailor my approach to meet the individual needs of each student.

As an Adjunct Professor at Washington State University, I have taught a variety of courses, from introductory biology to upper-level courses in behavioral ecology. In my research, I...

...students come first. When a students mental health is addressed and answered for, their identity validated, learning flows like no other. We are programmed to learn, excited to learn, sometimes we just have to convince the students that the material they are to learn is pertinent to them. This have proven true, no matter the age of population. This idea has always remained true; treat the students as individuals with their own goals and aspirations,...

I have always had a passion for education. While pursuing my MS degree I was awarded a highly competitive Teaching Assistantship, which allowed me to experience teaching general biology and human anatomy at the university level. My strengths include being able to portray complex concepts and ideas in innovative ways to cater to all learning types, in addition to my strong interpersonal skills with diverse populations.

...to help students who need extra time and an extra resource to succeed in their math pursuits. I have helped students who are taking independent study classes, students who are behind in their public school classes, and students who are studying for state exams. I know that most people don't share my love of the beauty of mathematics, but I hope to convince them of how math is such an important part of our everyday...

...Microbiology . Having taken the Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT) a seven hour standardized test, I know how to test prep. I have two younger siblings who I have regularly helped with homework. I focus on relating concepts to the students knowledge and using everyday examples. Having worked full-time, and volunteered, while being a student full-time for most of my college career, I have had to stay organized and manage my time. I am also...

I want to help students of all ages and abilities find love and motivation in school, just like I did from amazing teachers when I was younger. I have experience with working with children between the ages of six and twelve years old from coaching gymnastics, and I also tutored high school freshman in pre-algebra last year.... Students can become independent learners by encouraging them to work on difficult problems on their own at first, rather...

...to give 110% everyday, you'll only end up burning yourself out. But 1%...just try to make yourself 1% better today than you were yesterday...and by the end of the year you'll be over 365% better. It is the small steady changes and growth that make us great! I believe that each of us has the ability to exceed all our own expectations. That is why I tailor my teachings to the student's methods of learning...

Life is an adventure and the need to learn - and know how to learn - is the most important skill to have in (my) toolbox. As a teacher, trainer, coach, I strive to help clients grow while helping them learn how to learn, and, most importantly have fun in the process.

...tutoring English for foreign learners for the past several years, and as a language learner myself, I understand the challenges and needs that come with learning a new language.

I got my degree in World languages & Literatures from Lewis & Clark College in Portland, OR where I had the opportunity to...
