...a single deviation between tests can render any and all data meaningless. In part through these laboratory experiences, I have learned that true understanding comes from the teaching of central concepts rather than brute-force memorization. In short, you don't learn THAT 62=3, you learn WHY 62=3, allowing you to find 82, 122, 93, and all the others (this technique can be extrapolated to many of the graduate test prep tutoring work I do). Similarly, I...

...the University of Colorado, Boulder. In December of 2014, I received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Astrophysics with minors in Computer Science and Physics. Since graduation I have hiked from Mexico to Canada on the Pacific Crest Trail, a journey which I learned a tremendous amount about myself and the environment which we inhabit. This period of introspection made it clear that I should seek to be the best person I possibly can, and...

...is a lifelong process. Each teaching situation is an opportunity to influence positively how a student sees him or herself as a learner. Learning takes place over the course of a school year, semester, quarter, week, or in a five minute time frame (such as with a substitute teacher). The math problem or the causes of the American Revolution may be what the student is learning but the context of the situation is always making...

Until Covid, I was teaching math and reading to children who were falling behind in normal classroom settings, as well as running an afterschool program. I have worked extensively at summer camps in both New England and the Portland area (Oregon Zoo and Portland...

...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...

...useful later in life. When it comes to the actual material, I believe that there is almost always more than one way to approach a problem and that students should figure out what works best for them. I've studied learning and memory extensively, so I'm always ready to offer up advice. Not everyone learns the same way, and that's fine! While it's ideal for students to gain a deep understanding of the material, when it...

With 10 years of tutoring experience and 5 years of leading my own classroom, I've developed the ability to create supportive, student-centered environments tailored to individual needs.

I'm confident that with the right encouragement and strategies, all students can reach their academic goals.

My goal is to help students with their subjects and make sure they enjoy studying those subjects; I believe that to successfully understand...

I taught mathematics in public schools for 13 years and am always excited to help students discover the patterns seemingly hidden within. I listen carefully, ask questions using words students already know, and use stories and humor to help them feel comfortable so new learning can really sink in. I also provide memory tricks to help students get what they've learned front and center when they need it!

My education in more advanced courses allows me to provide students with more resources and multiple perspectives that would promote their understanding of the materials. In addition, my teaching positions and knowledge have equipped me with the most up-to-date information and resources for student learning and effective instruction. I...

...my parents have graduate degrees, and both of them are teachers. Coming from that background, and being a child who always enjoyed learning, I found it only natural that I wanted to become a teacher myself. There is nothing like the kind of impact a good teacher can make on the course of your life. For that reason, I love being involved in education and having the chance to help students learn. I love having...

I am a motivated tutor and would love to use my academic and industrial experience to teach students math, science, computer programming and electrical engineering.

We had an enourmous volume of students from pre algebra all the way through calculus come through our constantly crowded lab, and hence have a 4 year tutoring marathon under my belt!

I'm your bud, here to work through fun science problems,...

Biochemical interpretations of the world around us fascinate me, and I would like to share my excitement for the subject with...
