Award-Winning AP Physics 1 Tutors serving Seattle, WA

The last 30 years my life have revolved around physics and science in general. I've always had a very hands-on approach, and I feel it should be the same for teaching and learning. Just memorizing formulas and numbers is challenging at best. However, if you learn the real...... Work with the student to understand not just how an answer is found but why anyone would want to.

Providing guidance in science and mathematics to help students understand the real-world applications of scientific and mathematical concepts in their everyday lives. I have a B.S.E. in Aerospace Engineering and a B.S. in Sustainable Energy Materials and Technology, and I am pursuing my M.S. in Aerospace Engineering.... Learning science and mathematics through real-world applications that show how concepts can actually be used to solve real problems.... I'd ask them about topics they feel uncomfortable with, as...

...their problems and achieve better results. My tutoring style differs depending on the subject I'm tutoring. For Mathematics based subjects, I tend to take a graphical approach; focusing on addressing weak-points in understanding by presenting the material in a different, more intuitive and visual way. For Political Science, I focus on building contextual and theoretical understanding of the underlying theories and critiques. Outside of academia, I enjoy playing chess, reading, hiking, biking, skiing, cooking, and...

Hello! I am a current MIT student majoring in computer science. I love teaching math and computer science and look forward to working with you!

I'm currently a freshman at Pacific Lutheran University majoring in mathematics and technical theater design. My primary goal in any tutoring session is to gather a deeper understanding of any topic we cover together. Above all, I hope to make a little piece of someone's life a bit easier.

Hello! My name is Brendon Davis and I am a student at the University of Washington. I am studying molecular biology and I hope to some day do research on diseases. Learning is a passion of mine, and I love to share understanding and ideas through tutoring!... When I both learn and teach, my goal is to make connections between various subjects and one's own experiences. By sewing a thread through various concepts and into other...

...learning of the concepts. As such, I have 18 years experience and expertise in teaching introductory Physics courses (both Algebra and Calculus-based) at college/university level. My experience and education lends to me having not only comprehensive understanding of Physics and Math, but also a deep understanding of how to present/explain in ways that make it easy to pick up the concepts and apply them to word problems. I focus on concepts as well as study...

...had him as my Section Leader. He was super enthusiastic about the topic, so that generated more enthusiasm among us (the students). He was really helpful when we asked him questions during lab or during office hours. Also, David brought other applications of the topic (and some tangential subjects) we were learning about during the section, so it's good to see that he had more outside knowledge of how something could be used." These comments...

I received my Doctor Degree in Civil and Environmental Engineering in University of Nebraska-Lincoln with the full scholarship and 3.84 GPA in 2015. I have the confidence to teach and tutor subjects of undergraduate level and under subjects, e.g., mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology. All you need to do is giving me a try.

...I enjoy enriching their understanding of the universe and enabling their critical thinking. My students learn to understand proper time management and how to break down activities. I also like to make sure my students feel comfortable with analysis, editing, note taking, and other methods to give them a competitive edge. The fuel students should use is intrinsic motivation, enjoyment, and the thrill of delving into a topic they can use to expand their horizons...

I enjoy meeting new people and to engage in learning with them!

I am a former physics researcher who has tutored math and physics on a one-on-one basis for several years. I have a very individualized approach to teaching that takes into account the goals of the student.

...current events in science can be understood as well. I believe that if a subject is relevant and interesting to a student, they will be more eager and excited to learn. While a student, I learned through peer study groups that the act of teaching is one of the best ways to learn and master a subject. I employ this strategy when teaching, as having a student attempt to teach back the material is an...

More than 5 years experience with tutoring. Pacific Lutheran University Elementary Education with Middle Math and Middle Science endorsement. University of Washington Major in Geography and minor in education. Fluent in Mandarin and English.

Regardless of gender, race or history, I believe, that with the right mindset, anyone has the ability to learn anything they want and accomplish their goals; I was born in a small town in Mexico called Irapuato. 23 years later I graduated college with a mechanical engineering degree from one of the most notorious programs in the nation. Whatever your goals, I'd like to help achieve them.

...on my knowledge of the coursework to others In addition to working for Varsity Tutors, I also do SAT/ACT and curriculum based prep for The Bellevue Learning Center, an in person tutoring company. In high school, I worked as a ski instructor, giving me direct experience in teaching people of varying ages. Additionally, participation in study groups was one of my most frequently used study techniques as a college student. While participating in study groups,...

...taught several undergraduate chemistry courses, including: general chemistry, organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, and high school chemistry. I absolutely love teaching students. I most enjoyed when students understood the concepts and could apply them to new problems. I believe it is most important for students to understand the concepts, rather than memorize specific formulas, reactions, or mechanisms. By learning the concepts, you can apply the concepts to problems to more challenging problems. I hope to get...

...about the material. Those two attributes are something I strive for while tutoring. Attending college has allowed me to gain a lot of experience tutoring various math and physics classes. When I work with my students, I focus on the logical steps to understanding the material. Then applying that knowledge to problem solving techniques. In math I tutor classes ranging from Pre-Algebra through Differential Equations. In Physics, I tutor the lower division classes.

I love to learn and to teach. Studied physics and electrical engineering in college. Lifelong music nerd.

I embrace a student centered approach to student learning. This means that I let the student lead the discussion of a particular problem. I have been teaching for 6 years at the high school level, having come off a BS in Math with a minor in Physics from UC Merced(go bobcats).
