Award-Winning Calculus Tutors serving Redmond, WA

...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 and teach my own lesson on mass extinctions taking what I learned from observing the teacher teach over the last couple months and implementing my own style as well. My volunteer experience is...

...American Dance Theater. I am thrilled to be carrying my love for mathematics into the future in the form of tutoring. There are few things more beautiful or satisfying to me than the way complex equations break down into simple, easily solved calculations. My goal in tutoring is to ease the stress that frequently occurs when a student encounters a difficult problem and to show students how to put equations into terms with which they...

...middle and high school students. I tutor in a broad range of subjects, but I am most passionate about sharing the elegance of Algebra with any attentive student, and I enjoy helping students to relate to even the most abstract elements of History. I firmly believe that strong foundational knowledge and analytical skills are essential to education, and allow students to approach complex academic and personal challenges with confidence and efficiency. In my spare time,...

The subjects I tutor includes but not limited to Traditional Mandarin Chinese, Data Structure & Algorithm (Java) and Frontend Web Development (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React.js). I believe that everyone learn things differently and it's the my job to find the most effective and efficient way of learning for each student. My teaching philosophy are positive...

...here in Seattle. Being a PhD student, a majority of my time is spent doing mathematics, but during my free time I practice computer programming or mess around on an instrument. I used to play piano and violin quite a bit, but over the years I have played less, and it is just an occasional hobby now. Of course, despite my busy schedule I always make time to hang out with friends, whether through gaming...

...first time I took standardized tests, I understand that even with a solid knowledge foundation tests like the ACT require a substantial amount of exam specific preparation. While my engineering background provides me the opportunity to tutor more advanced math, science, and engineering subjects, I enjoy helping students of all ages and ability levels learn. In my free time, I love to play sports, ski and travel and have been to many countries including Peru,...

...of computer science. I also worked as a physics tutor for an introductory physics course. During high school, I tutored elementary school and middle school music. When it comes to learning, I think it is most important to realize that everybody has a distinct learning style. This process of finding the right teaching method requires patience, creativity, and communication. I really enjoy and am inspired by seeing my students succeed and begin to be able...

...Furthermore, I have experience tutoring and laboratory assisting, both of which involved guiding peers to a greater understanding of course material and eventually success. Science is my favorite subject, sounds broad but it is true, I have honestly enjoyed all my science classes. From general biology, to genetics, from ecology, to biostatistics, I like it all. Science is amazing because it is so experimental and complex, but once understood truly fascinating and question-inducing. Math and...

...student needs. Asking for help is not indicative of stupidity or weakness, nor is failing to comprehend a topic the first time it is broached. I work with students to help them determine the learning style that works best for them. I have never been a fan of memorizing facts, so whenever possible I like to tackle concepts in a manner that will explain the “why.” In my own learning I find I can grasp...

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...

...their quantitative reasoning abilities. In particular, I like to help students to understand how the subjects they are learning apply in the real world. For example, using statistical methods to predict how well a professional baseball team will perform, or how prime numbers can be used in modern day cryptography. I have found that the best way to make abstract mathematical concepts interesting to a student is to show how that concept is relevant today.

...the most satisfaction. During my time at Harvard, however, I saw that the realities of academic science conflicted with my earlier vision of life as an academic scientist. My time at a fast-paced research-focused institution highlighted those conflicts and has motivated me to pursue teaching the sciences to high school students. Students have described me as "efficient, effective, [and] fun," "an absolute pleasure," and "a phenomenal teacher [] a natural." One student wrote, "I'm so...

...I went overseas for a year as a Marine Reservist. When I returned, I taught high school math classes for three years. Budget cuts sent me to a middle school where I taught the high school credit classes there as well as coached the math team. I have a lot of teaching experience and have learned tricks and techniques from excellent teachers. I look forward to helping you reach your academic goals, nothing gives me...

I recently graduated from the University of Washington's rigorous Mechanical Engineering program. I have over a year of professional tutoring experience. This includes experience with middle school, high school, and college students. It also includes experience tutoring students with various learning disorders and attention/retention issues, as well as students who are very quick to learn.

...as well. I worked for the Math department to provide support for students in lower level classes and feedback on assignments to address any misunderstandings. I was a teaching assistant for the Economics department where I held office hours, one-on-one meetings and review sessions to meet with students and help them grasp the concepts. I also created helpful problem sets and visualizations. I worked for the university learning coop as a tutor where I was...

...very good with all levels of students, from elementary school up to college and beyond. I am very patient and understanding by nature, and have a knack for getting to the root of any problem in order to help students understand it themselves. I am not interested in simply just giving you the correct answer. My ultimate goal is to help you develop a deeper, more solid foundation for the subject so you can go...

...pharmacy school at VCU to pursue a career as a pharmacist. During my time at Virginia Tech, I have tutored elementary and middle school students in science and math. A true sense of reward comes from teaching young students. Most of my students struggled and were often afraid to say what they thought because of the fear of being wrong. As a tutor and mentor, my role is to create a comfortable learning environment where...

...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 find a method or style that works best for them!

...concepts work in their head. And exactly how the concepts are pictured is dependent on the learning style of the student, which I will help them discover through the process of tutoring. Discovering this learning style is incredibly important both to me teaching a student, but also to teach a student how to approach learning on their own in the future. Knowledge of this will make their study time more efficient, and help them understand...

...School while taking AP Calculus AB, I was a peer tutor in my school's Pre-Calculus course. Other tutoring experience comes from volunteering to help my peers in their math and Computer Science classes. I am an avid programmer with experience across a wide range of technologies and languages, including NodeJS, MySQL, C, C++, and Objective C. Most of my experience in Computer Science comes from personal projects and my own curiosity. Learning new things is...
