Becoming a tutor for the first time made me realize how much I...

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.

...the past two years at the middle school and high school levels. I really enjoy being able to help students succeed. I was a French Studies major at Fordham University, with a pre-medical concentration. As a result, I am passionate about a wide range of subject matter from the sciences to the humanities and want to share my passion with students at any level. Currently, I work in cancer research while I apply to medical...

...from University of Washington in Biology and Environmental Science. I specialized in Ornithology, the study of birds; I'm a big bird nerd. I've had experience tutoring biology, math, and environmental science for the Athletic Department at UW and serving as a Teacher Assistant for UW's Biology Department, including a biodiversity seminar to Peru. Just like the D1 student athletes I work with, academics sometimes don't come naturally, but I look forward to fixing that false...

...I love seeing my enthusiasm for learning reflected in others. I am excited by seeing students "get it." I have tutored elementary instrumental music, taught environmental science lessons, and mentored undergraduate research assistants. As a strong student throughout my formal education, I bring clarity and knowledge of academic subjects. I learned how to succeed in the system of papers, projects, quizzes, and standardized tests, and I look forward helping other students achieve academic success, toousing...

...students who need help. I understand that Math can be complicated, and it is not something you get right away. I believe with practice and skill one can be better able to understand it. I know this because I also grew up not liking Math but ironically ended up teaching it. I believe you need to be patient and understand the student's strengths and weakness in order to effectively teach Math to students. Relating Math...

...learn hugely rewarding. I completed an undergraduate degree in Natural Sciences at Cambridge University (UK), which gave me the fabulous opportunity to study a broad range of sciences in detail.

Math is the way we describe what we discover with science. I have been a substitute teacher for all grades and all subjects in a rural district, then later worked in a maximum security Juvenile Rehabilitation facility. There, I worked at aiding teachers and individually...

...doors, its a shame that learning has developed a reputation of being not fun. When students learn how to harness a difficult concept, questions are answered and new ones are discovered. I have studied motivation in educational contexts and have held various teaching/mentoring roles. Having graduated 1st in my class with a Masters degree, I know what it takes to succeed in academic settings. It is effort, not innate ability, that makes people excel. I...

I love discovering how things work, and it makes me appreciate the world that I live in that much more. Last year I volunteered at Nova High School helping out with a biology class as well as tutoring math on occasion. I even got to plan...

...wildly gesturing (even though we were in a library) and coming up with all sorts of analogies. I remember being pretty drained from squeezing out all my energy to help my friend understand the material. But all was paid off when she finally understood and even scored above average in that test the following week. Even while studying in UW, I took time to shadow local high school teachers and enrolled in programs that gave...

Always be seeking, improving, and wondering. I have taught middle school for 17 years and try to pass on my love of learning to each and everyone of my students. I believe all students can be successful learners, although they may learn best in a wide...

In my free time, I enjoy hiking, reading, writing, and playing badminton.
