Award-Winning Calculus Tutors in Everett, WA

...a Peer Tutor for the University, where I tutored mainly Mathematics ranging from Pre-Algebra to Calculus. I enjoy tutoring math the most; however, that may be due to the amount of time I've spent doing so. I would love the opportunity to tutor a student in less-frequently requested subjects like Philosophy! My teaching philosophy is a mix of formal training and personal methods. I earned Level II certification from the Collegiate Reading and Learning Association...

...taken the PSAT, ACT, SAT, SAT Subject Tests, and AP Tests, so I understand the difficulty in finding a way to master both the material and the tests. I am well aware of the challenges that standardized tests present and love working with students to come up with a tailored arsenal of strategies and approaches to make the test easier and less intimidating. I have years of experience with reading comprehension, essay writing, critical analysis...

...those who have yet to see the wonders of mathematics in the hopes that they too might want to further the field themselves one day. As Edward Frenkel said in an interview on the subject of mathematics, "This is the coolest stuff in the worldthat's what it is and yet everyone hates it. Isn't it ironic?" Students are taught mathematics in a way that obscures its true beauty, and it is my hope that I...

...University (2015) with a BA in Environmental Biology. I first started tutoring during my gap year between high school and college when I helped build a local tutoring service with a friend. Even though that tutoring service is no longer operational, I continued to tutor students throughout my time at Columbia. As a tutor, I understand that each student is unique. Instead of doing to same routine, I like to develop a tutoring strategy that...

...computational math sciences with a focus in science and engineering from the University of Washington. After graduating from the University of Washington, I enrolled in Teach For America. I taught high school chemistry and physics for two years in Arkansas. Although I have several years of experience as a science teacher, I actually prefer to tutor math. I think math is the foundation for many sciences and a solid understanding of math can lead to...

...students that I am open to all answers and that no one is ever truly wrong. No one should feel that their contribution to a learning environment is ever wrong. In addition to mentoring elementary and middle school students, I have also tutored freshmen chemistry and surely enough, the fear of being wrong still persists in these students as well.I told them what I told my younger students about how being wrong helps us to...

...I grew up believing myself to be incapable of understanding math and science concepts, and I was a very underachieving high school student. After owning and operating a successful residential painting business for many years, I returned to school at the age of 30 to study music theory. While fulfilling the degree requirements, I found that I had been mistaken, and I was in fact capable of achieving a level of academic success which I...

...animals on exhibit and about conservation. I worked there throughout high school, and through it got to learn how fun teaching could be. On a typical day I would talk with hundreds of people of all different ages, backgrounds, and interests. I learned to be flexible in my teaching strategies, shifting focus and tailoring my talk for each group that I got to talk to. I got to make learning fun and exciting. I loved...

...from Ohio State University with a degree in Astronomy and Astrophysics. While achieving my degree, I had the extraordinary opportunity to work in the Astronomy department as a student instructional assistant. This experience not only exposed me to a variety of learning styles, but it reinforced my respect for the tremendous responsibility that we as educators have to students. My teaching philosophy is based on flexibility and compassion; traits that I feel are fundamental for...

...solve challenging problems or to understand puzzling phenomena. As a tutor, I love the moment when a student finally understands a troublesome concept, and a light bulb goes off in his or her head (often accompanied by an “Ohh!”). There’s an explanation that does the trick for everybody, and we just have to find it – that’s my teaching philosophy. I like to use lots of analogies and stories in my explanations, because anchoring difficult...

...major in philosophy and a minor in mathematics at the University of Washington, I was fortunate to be exposed to very different learning and teaching styles. I also learned to appreciate that very smart people can think in very different ways from each other and that people who are outstanding at some subjects inevitably need help with others. I always bring this insight to bear on tutoring, where I work together with the student to...

...and mentoring students for over thirty years. I've taken a lot of classes too. And in my experience, there are two types of teachers. The first type wants to "challenge" the students by making things are hard as possible. The second type helps the student really "understand" the subject by making it as easy, and clear, and straight forward as possible. I always try to be the second type. My goal is that every student...

In addition to my teaching and tutoring duties, I designed individualized lesson...

...Graduate from the University of Washington Seattle for high school math. I enjoy teaching math to my students, but I mainly like to focus on helping my students develop independent study skills that will support them through life. What this means is building up the analytical skills that they will need to prepare and study for assignments and tests when they're going to go to college. There's only so much one can do in teaching...

...science disciplines through the National Society of High School Scholars. I earned a dual bachelor's degree in ecology and contemporary dance performance, while continuing to mentor and assist my peers. Although these fields of study may seem to lie on opposite and seemingly unrelated ends of the academic spectrum, I have found that they molded me into an equally rational and abstract thinker and creator. This complementary form of education has allowed me to connect...

...student improve. My boss would designate the most difficult students to me, whether in academic difficulty or in attitude, and I learned many ways to help bolster a healthy learning environment for all kinds of audiences. I hope to apply my experiences from serving as a teaching assistant, instructing at Kumon, and hosting study sessions outside of school to Varsity Tutors, where I will set forth all of my knowledge and experience to help your...
