Award-Winning AP Physics 1 Tutors serving Tacoma, WA

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.

...teaching others college level concepts as I did being taught. These frequent study sessions helped me learn ways to become much more effective as a tutor. A large part of my responsibilities as a ski instructor was communicating with both my students and their parents and working with them to develop more effective ways to help my students get the most out of each teaching session. Although the subject matter of the courses will be...

...studies and organic chemistry when I attended graduate school. I have tutored and 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...

...of experience tutoring while holding a BS in physics. When I was a student, I always appreciated tutors and teachers who were engaging and made me excited 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...

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).

...I understand that many students may struggle with their science classes, and certainly not because they are incapable or lack talent. From my own experiences in high school and undergraduate STEM programs, I understand that the material is frequently taught poorly and/or in uninteresting ways that can make it difficult for students to succeed. I am excited to help any student struggling with their science classes to improve their confidence in studying difficult subjects!

Hello! I'm Chris, a fun-loving math tutor who enjoys helping students of all ages see math in a light that helps them expand their horizon. I've worked one-on-one with students for about 7 years now. I enjoy understanding and learning from my students on top of showing them mathematics in a way tailored to them.

...with tutoring is to help other students find their passion for learning as well! I first started helping out in a classroom when I was 12. My middle school had a special education center and I had the opportunity to work with a class of high-functioning, non-verbal 3rd graders for a year! Throughout high school, I babysat the four children of a family friend on a regular basis, helping with (elementary level) schoolwork whenever required....

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.

...year ago I graduated from Ballard High School in Seattle. In High school I participated in FIRST Robotics and discovered a passion for things that move, prompting me to major in mechanical engineering. I have always enjoyed math. In high school I 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...

...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 me during...

...Oberlin, I performed fieldwork to help with a study of methane emissions in Spain, and I worked with the International Pulsar Timing Array in Holland and Australia to discover new pulsars and clouds of interstellar hydrogen. I also tutored individuals and groups in physics, math, and astronomy. My favorite subject to tutor in is math. While math is often seen as intimidating, I like making it fun and engaging. I think it's important to see...

...Seattle, specializing in Nanoscience and Molecular Engineering. My goal is to help students reach the point where they won't just be able to ace exams, but will in fact be able to teach material back to me, since that is the sign 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...

...deep passion for educating the next generation of scientists and engineers. 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...

I am a senior physics and Spanish language major! I love sharing my interest in science and culture with students of all ages.
