Award-Winning Algebra Tutors in Vancouver, WA

...connect with students, so that they can engage in understanding their subject and acquire learning tools to attack new material confidently. My favorite subjects to tutor are English, Math, and Social Studies. Studying U.S. and World History is a personal passion; delving into STEM topics, such as 3D printing, microbiology, and chemistry, is a self-educating goal. I believe education is inspiring the desire to engage in learning, then, providing lucid instruction so that the individual...

...is that tutoring should by no means follow a one-size-fits-all approach. In my tutoring practice I focus on treating students as unique individuals, determining what is effective for each student, and getting to know each student's particular academic needs and goals. When it comes to SAT prep, I believe that understanding the material is always more important than simply understanding the test. I teach specific testing strategies and tricks, but I ensure that at the...

As an ME student at MIT, I've learned a lot about math and science, and I'd love to share that knowledge with students here. I've taught over thirty students in standardized test preparation, English, German, and various kinds of math and science.

...SAT prep program. From these experiences I gained a broad knowledge of how best to tutor people of different ages and backgrounds. I recently took the GRE test and I performed well on the SAT back in high school. I have a strong grasp of the tests and I would say that tutoring the writing/verbal portions of these tests is my strongest suit. I also love reading and writing, and I love to share my...

...Latin. I love everything about Latin, from its structured grammar to its beautiful poetry, but my favorite moments are when a student recognizes the root of an English word and realizes how a language thousands of years old still relates to their life today. Regardless of subject, I help students develop critical thinking skills and study strategies to gain the confidence they need to succeed. Outside of tutoring, my interests include theatre, art, and reading...

I am originally from Madison, WI, and although I have now lived all over the world and settled on the West Coast, I consider myself a cheese-head for life. In high school, my family moved to Spain where I learned and became fluent in Spanish....
