Award-Winning Elementary Math Tutors for Students in Seattle, WA

...shaped my teaching philosophy. I value listening to my students the most in the process of tutoring. From my experience as a tutor, I have learned that every student has a different way to tackle the same problem, and as a tutor, it is my job not to teach my way to get to an answer, but guide my students on their own way. Outside of tutoring I enjoy playing soccer, basketball, and almost any...

...student's base, and help him/her improve rapidly. I love motivating and building the student's confidence. Knowing that I enjoyed Math and Physics, I pursued an engineering major. I graduated in Civil Engineering from Georgia Institute of Technology in 2011. I work as an engineer full time, and I do tutoring on a part time basis. I would be a great fit for students who want to work together on a regular basis and build their...

...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 try to put forth this effort and learn in all areas of my...

I have happily taught math and robotics at the Middle School level for the past 7 years. Before that, I was a Title One math specialist at the elementary level. Going way back, I started my teaching career in an Early Childhood Center, teaching a mix of first and second graders.

...minute of it! I've also served as an administrative assistant and part time tutor at a tutoring company for two years, aiding students from 4 to 17 in subjects like: SSAT Prep, ACT/SAT prep, and general tutoring. I've also worked with students who have been diagnosed with some form of learning difference. Much of my time with the tutoring company included not only me being responsible with administrative duties, but also the tact to help...

...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 the look on a kid’s face when they learned something new. Later throughout my undergrad I...

...by the international design firm IDEO. While typically used in startups to develop new innovations, I've found it extremely handy in tutoring. Every student is different and so are their difficulties, so a finite set of ways to present a concept or tackle a difficulty is potentially limiting. In my experience, it's much more effective to use an adaptive framework like design thinking to identify the root of students' issues and find/develop a solution that...

Hi, I am a recent graduate from Whitman College with a degree in Economics and Psychology. I love to play soccer, climb rocks, and bake pies! I am tutoring to keep my academic skills up before going back to graduate school next year. Looking forward to working with you!

Hello! My name is Brendan and I am a committed educator who believes success is possible for anyone.

...of 2017. I have always been very proficient at math, scoring high grades in class as well as achieving high AP and SAT scores. I have experience tutoring friends and classmates unprofessionally and have achieved positive results. I want to apply my skills to the field of engineering, but will need to work part-time jobs in order to fund my college education. I see tutoring as a great way to help support myself as well...

...tutoring is creating that feeling of joy that comes with learning. When the subjects are interesting and fun, the effort fades away. I have worked with AmeriCorps' City Year program and spent a year watching over thirty students trying to complete their freshman and sophomore years of high school at the same time. I was also a general tutor for the whole school after hours. I learned a great deal about the nuances of working...

I have tutored in both individualized and group settings for various purposes, including SAT test prep, supplemental learning, and as a primary teaching resource. To that end, I have endeavored to truly understand my students on a personal level to make sure that the way I am tutoring them is the best way for them to learn. I have constructed lesson plans for both a single person and an entire 30 student classroom.

...AP tests (10 AP tests taken, including 5's in Calculus AB, Spanish, Biology, Statistics, US History, Comparative Government and English Language). As a tutor in the humanities I bring a strong command of writing mechanics and research and argumentative strategies, as well as background in history (a subject in which I've completed a minor) and Spanish (including a summer immersion program in Spain). As a math tutor I bring strong communication skills, test taking experience...

...orgullo, y confianza que venga cuando se alcance, por fin, una habilidad acadmica. Por eso soy tutora. Tengo un doble-BA en la literatura y los estudios latinos, as que yo me especializo en los asuntos literarios -- del nivel basico en la primaria hasta los ensayos en la universidad. Traeme tus tareas de escribir, tus poemas que te confunden, tus desafos del fnico, y yo har lo mejor que puedo para explicartelo bien claro y...

...on the phrasing or analogy until I find the explanation that clicks with a student, utilizing artistic methods like visual arts or dance to help explain things, or finding ways to take the chore out of learning, I go above and beyond with my students. I think learning is fun as well and have a diverse range of interests from English and Literature, to Economics and Math, which I also think fuels my tutoring ability...

...In my spare time, I like to read and draw. But recently, as my new year's resolution, I've starting kickboxing and I am getting very interested in that workout. Overall, I am a good listener. I like to help students find and resolve their main problems with the subject through interactive conversations and advise better strategies to improve not just their grades but also students' confidence level of the subject. I am a knowledgeable and...

...find the bottom of one. For ESL learners, I empathize. I was born in Germany, and I had to learn a great deal of English when I came to the States. In some ways, I was fortunate in that I had an early start, but this really means I have had a long time to practice. When you have had such a long time to practice, you can sound like a native too. In the...

Throughout my time as both an undergraduate and graduate student, I have enjoyed teaching others and helping fellow students learn and understand new concepts.
