Award-Winning AP Physics 1 Tutors serving Tacoma, WA

...began tutoring around the same time, working with the same student for three years. We focused primarily on organization, studying strategies, and any subject matter that gave her particular trouble. Outside of tutoring, I am a working actress! I love having the freedom to create something meaningful to put out into the world. I also enjoy taking walks through the ENDLESS Seattle parks, trying to find as many dogs to pet as possible!

Hello! I am an engineer by training, who is looking to help young people cultivate love and interest for math and science!

I am a professional scientist with multiple years of experience in the biopharmaceutical field. I have spent time in the classroom with elementary aged students and am comfortable with this age group. I am also familiar with AP classes and ACT/SAT preparation. I look forward to sharing my love of learning with students and helping them achieve academic goals!

I am a potential friendly mathematician who is also interested in computer programming.

...enjoyed my algebra and AP calculus courses. In college I have taken many courses that use applied math, including finance and physics. I have experience tutoring kids at many different levels. For 5 years I worked with students 1st grade through 4th grade Hebrew reading and writing. I have also volunteered in a AP Calculus AB classrooms helping students understand the coursework. I love working with students and I think that every student can excel...

...is a highly competitive program that requires proficiency in nearly all areas of high school and college level science and mathematics subjects, which is why I chose to teach these subjects on the Varsity Tutors platform in 2018 (my freshman year of college). When I'm not tutoring, I like to spend my time running, hiking, reading, coding, and doing research. If there's anything else you'd like to know about my background, feel free to ask...

...as a skill that can be learned, like reading, rather than a talent you are born with or without. My tutoring style is hands-on. I believe that working through examples is the best way to solidify the concepts one is learning, especially when it comes to physics and math. I like working through an example with a tutee, and then having them solve some problems on their own. Outside of tutoring, I love playing piano,...

...of true understanding. When I see someone's face light up when a complicated set of ideas is distilled into a viscerally understandable (and exciting!) bite-sized concept, I get a sense of fulfillment like nothing else. Learning math or science is all about that one moment where everything "clicks" into place, and when it happens, you notice. That feeling is what drives my love for mathematics, science, and other related disciplines, whether I am experiencing that...

...I first started developing my love for STEM while attending Montessori school. As I continued with my education from a catholic high school to the University of Washington, I found my enthusiasm for problem solving became more and more engrained into my everyday life. I believe that success within any field of knowledge comes from continual curiosity and questioning of the models and methods presented before an individual. My favorite physicist David Hilbert famously spoke...

...love sharing my interest in science and culture with students of all ages. I enjoy creating STEM demonstration sessions for local middle schools and mentoring for the Girls are the 5th FUNdamental Force Program as the executive chair and founder. In my free time I enjoy baking cupcakes, iceskating, and taking walks while listening to my Spotify Daily Mix. I hope to support all levels of learning inside and outside the classroom!

...on creating a productive environment but encouraging creative learning in STEM and finding joy and energy in those subjects. I am an electrical engineering graduate from the University of Illinois (2017). On a technical level, I focus on mathematics, especially linear algebra, differential equations, and calculus up until multivariable; I subsequently also have experience in all math levels below those. My EE background also means expertise in circuit theory and electromagnetics, covering most of E&M...

...the University of Washington as a Clinical research coordinator, working with children and adolescents who have experienced trauma in childhood. I intend to apply to Clinical Psychology PhD programs within the next few years. My love of theatre, psychology, and math all work together to help me become an effective tutor. I love finding creative ways to make content clearer for my students' unique learning styles. While I am capable of engaging with a wide...

I am currently a Master's mechanical engineering student at the University of Washington. I have a BS in ME as well as a minor in math from the UW. Throughout my undergrad and graduate studies, I have taken many math and science courses and built a strong foundation in the field. I am especially comfortable in algebra, calculus, and physics. My other interests include basketball, badminton, and making music.

When I tutor, I am working to share my excitement for learning. Each student is different and deserves to have a personalized experience, and I take pride in identifying my students' learning styles and tailoring their sessions to fit their relationship with academics. My primary goal is to help my students achieve theirs.

...experience teaching through working as a Teaching Assistant for Organic Chemistry I and II and Synthesis Lab I for the Georgia Tech BEST Study Abroad Program and through volunteering at STEM educational outreach events as president of the Georgia Tech chapter of Student Affiliates of the American Chemical Society. I enjoy teaching as a way to share my passion for science and believe I offer a unique perspective as a current student in STEM.

...work in school was the most common thing. Some of my friends even asked me to help their little sisters or brothers during long breaks, and the outcome was always outstanding. I always take two steps while tutoring others. Firstly, I will understand how the student think about the problem. Secondly, based on student's own idea, I will guide him/her to get the answer. I believe that what really matters is the method and thought...

Having a masters degree in Aeronautics and Astronautics, I understand the importance of math and physics in this world and relish sharing it with others. My students have ranged from grade school to undergraduate students. During my masters, I have been a TA in the fields of Engineering Statics and Thermodynamics

...real world applications. I will be attending the Foster School of Business this Fall and am excited to learn leadership and management skills to compliment my technical base. As a student I hope to focus on Product Management in Technology, and strengthen my community involvement through tutoring and educational volunteer opportunities. I will be focusing on tutoring high school and college level Math and Science courses, as well as preparation for Math and Science portions...

...University for college students and I used to teach programming classes through Coding With Kids. At Vanderbilt University, I am pursuing degrees in Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, and Mathematics. I tutor mostly math, physics, and chemistry, but I like physics most because of the problem solving aspects. My teaching philosophy is to focus on the basic concepts and make sure those are cemented, then to later focus on the nuances of problem solving. Outside of...

...I've tutored multiple friends and family members, and have been told I have a gift for teaching. I've been tutoring both college and high school students for 2 years. I'm excited to do what I can to help you understand more! My teaching style includes a lot of motions and visualizing, equating problems to more familiar experiences, and step by step instruction.
