Award-Winning Chemistry Tutors in Vancouver, WA

I am a MD PhD from Germany who has been living and working in the US now for more than 2.5 yrs. I love teaching students, seeing them improve themselves while learning. Nothing makes teaching more worth it than creating that spark in a students eye, because he/she either really understood something or is just fascinated with the topic and wants to know more.

...skills than ever, so it would be remiss of us not to emphasize intellectual growth. The subject I am most passionate about tutoring is mechanics since this is usually a student's first exposure to synthesizing physical theories with mathematical concepts. Overall, I take a conversational approach to tutoring where I try my best to relate the material to the student's life experiences while drawing more conventional analogies that are proven to make the concept click.

Hello! I am a recent graduate from the University of Oregon and the Robert D. Clark Honors college. I studied neuroscience and entrepreneurship while graduating with magna cum laude. Currently, I am pursuing a masters in social and cultural psychology with an emphasis in political psychology.

...enjoy exploring the ever-changing NYC landscape, stumbling about the internet learning whatever it has to teach me, studying politics both as an art and a science, as well as my guilty pleasure of watching the NFL and the occasional Newcastle game. As an HIV vaccine researcher for several years, I was taught many obscure facts and techniques. As a specialist in assay development (making up new experiments), I created even more. All of these techniques...

...art, and reading good literature. I am currently reading books by Robert Louis Stevenson and Sir Walter Scott. One of my highest pursuits has been the study of education. I have been studying Waldorf and Montessori educational theories, among others, as part of a journey to better understand the learning process, especially as it occurs during early stages of childhood development. I hope that these studies will enrich my tutoring practice, and give me further...

...a real impact. This opportunity prompted me to continue tutoring. My experience working in a high school showed me how different each student’s ability in any given area can be. The understanding that each student learns differently and therefore requires a different approach was an important lesson that I learned through my time tutoring in Springfield. I believe that any help in a student’s studies can be useful, and that I can offer practiced guidance...

...become a teacher. I recently graduated with a B.S. In Environmental Biology and I have since worked on ecological studies of population structures, and most recently worked as a zookeeper, caring for animals and teaching guests about conservationism. I recently moved from Florida to Oregon for the nature, the people, and for the opportunities. I love to hike, to travel, and to play music. Most of all I love good stories, whether in books, video...

...science at the primary and secondary level alongside philosophy. My personal philosophy on education is that we are all both students and teachers and we all continually learn from and teach one another. Teachers and tutors act to facilitate new discoveries, and the best teachers strive to develop a personal learning strategy for each student so they may succeed themselves. I've served two AmeriCorps service terms after college and recently moved to Portland May 2014...

I hope to help students who are struggling with their science subjects by being patient, knowledgeable, and able to find a solution to their confusion or struggle.

I currently work with students K-12 in language arts and math. I am comfortable with a wide variety of learning styles, as well as teaching online. My background is in biology and conservation biology, and I am currently a part-time student in Portland, OR learning about Geographic Information Systems.... I believe no one is unteachable. A person only needs a teacher to connect the topic to something the student is interested in!... I would learn a...

...your background or where you are from because math is universal. Numbers are the same everywhere. This helped in my university environment because the diversity of the campus was quite large. I enjoyed this because I got to meet different people. Of course, physics and engineering is always my love. Many of my colleagues got together to tackle our problems together. I have taught many people and also learned quite a bit from others. I...

...on mining the NCBI DNA database and collecting information on specific transcripts. I look forward to every new student I tutor for a myriad of reasons! First, both teaching and learning are much easier in a 1-on-1 scenario, because the tutor must only focus on the growth of a single student. Additionally, the student and tutor can actually discuss the subject to really build an understanding of it. I incorporate lots of real-world applications and...

...realistic and supportive, and to help you gain the skills, knowledge, and confidence to achieve your goals. My first time tutoring was back in elementary school, as an accelerated math student, I had time in the mornings to tutor 3rd grade math. When I was in graduate school, I tutored a collegiate athlete during the summer. My preference is to work with elementary age students, algebra students, accounting students, and intro to French students.

I believe that any student can learn. I believe that the only reason a student may be struggling is because material isn't being taught in the way that suits the individual. I try to uncover the different ways each student learns and present information in ways that make more sense to each student. I always try to make learning personal.... I believe that any student can learn. The only reason they may be struggling is because...

...grade levels. I enjoy teaching all areas but especially love math and reading. These are passions of mine, and you can often find me reading my own books whenever I have time. I believe that a positive environment is the key to learning. When students are happy, safe, and enjoying their tasks, they acquire new information much more quickly and easily. It is my mission to always create this environment with my students and those...

...my Bachelors in Chemistry, Botany, Zoology. I have passed all my CPA exams and have worked in companies as an Accountant & Marketing Executive. I would love to teach introductory & intermediate accounting. I have conducted Math and English after school intervention programs and helped kids who were at risk of academic failure. I took it as a challenge and helped all those kids succeed. English & Math are the foundational subjects. Children who develop...

...that I???ve graduated, I???m applying and interviewing for medical school, volunteering in the rural, underserved community as an EMT on an ambulance, and helping young children with special needs in an impoverished city. A lot of people ask me why I chose medicine. One reason why I???m pursuing medicine is because I???m passionate about teaching others, and that???s why I???m here, because I truly enjoy it. I enjoy helping others in MCAT prep, biochemistry, and...

...likes to struggle through material that they don't understand and don't find interesting. I like to help students personally connect to the information they're learning, as well as understand real world use for that information. Patience is key to being a good tutor, and I strive to always be patient and understanding with a student who is struggling. I am extremely passionate about the Spanish language, as well as Psychology, and I hope to pass...

Hey everybody! My name is Anna Miller. I recently graduated with an MPH in Epidemiology. I have been tutoring math, biology, and test prep for over five years, and I hope I can help with any math questions you may have.

...I wanted to be a scientist. As a high school student, I was exceptionally mediocre at school. Fortunately I was accepted to Western Washington University. It was my time at Western that I found what I was capable of. Chemistry, and mathematics are such daunting subjects, I never imagined I would be able to grasp them, after all academics were not my strong suit. Through hard work, endless study sessions, and a blossoming passion I...
