...engineering and an MBA. I've worked in educational technology to empower hands-on learning that supports college curriculum. I've volunteered for FIRST Robotics and in elementary maker spaces to help students connect their classroom work to real-world applications. I love to work with students of all ages from fundamentals to advanced subjects. Whenever I can I will apply the curriculum to my experience or advanced education to make learning interesting and show why it matters.

I am a Seattle-based actress and singer originally from Illinois -- I moved to the Seattle area in 2000. I also work part-time at a non-profit guardianship firm downtown.

...5 years, I have had the opportunity to teach students ages 8 to 16, in subjects ranging from Algebra 1 and Chemistry to AP subjects and various coding languages. When I teach students, my main goal is to make sure they learn the material they desire to learn. As simple as this sounds, students across all grade levels struggle to learn in all kinds of learning environments. As a tutor, I strive to make sure...

...I speak both English and Mandarin. Intense projects and a heavy course load have helped to build a strong foundation in math, physics, and programming. When I came to this country, I was forced to overcome many language problems. I think the most important thing in tutoring is helping students find their own interest and stimulating their desires to get good grades for themselves. Work hard and play hard is the best way to succeed....

After graduating, I spent three years in Africa and Asia working in sustainable development and teaching English to both adults and children, before moving to Paris to pursue a master's degree. I received my graduate degree in international relations and diplomacy from the American Graduate School, writing my thesis on the effects of domestic politics on US foreign policy in the Middle East.

...tailored to the learning styles of each student. Some of my methods are learning games, practice problems, memorization, learning by example, and reverse teaching. In my tutoring practice, I value patience, creative learning, and short and long-term goal setting. With older students, I can offer support and guidance during the research, writing, and editing processes. If relevant, I will give students homework between sessions to practice vocabulary, increase understanding of certain concepts, and/or become familiar...

I love working with youth, especially high school students--so much that I've devoted my life to it! And I am committed to educational equity, helping students from...

...homework. I realized that I had a knack for explaining mathematics in simple terms. I also realized how fun it is to teach math and how rewarding it is to watch a student grow in their understanding. From there, I continued to tutor privately. While in grad school, I also got the opportunity to be a teaching assistant. My approach to teaching is to work through examples with the student, guiding them along the way...

...things in a way that they can comprehend. And second, of a deep belief in the interest and importance of the thing taught, a concern about it amounting to a kind of passion. I believe a teacher ought also urge his students to think critically. It's almost always the case that rote memorization of facts or data cannot impart the same deep understanding of some subject or issue that becomes possible through critical examination and...

...tutor. I tutor in many subjects related to the English discipline, from High School English to general test prep, but I most enjoy opportunities to discuss reading samples and other pieces of literature with my students. I enjoy all things related to reading and writing, and the satisfaction that comes with overcoming a particularly challenging prompt or essay assignment. Helping students grow their own appreciation for these aspects of the educational experience is even more...

...subjects of the SAT, ACT, and GRE. When I was in high school, I earned a National Merit Scholarship. I have been tutoring adults since I was an undergraduate, and I have also tutored older elementary school students, middle school students, and high school students. Most of my students are aiming for scores that will help them get into highly selective universities. Some of my students also have ADHD, autism, or communication disorders. All of...

...graduate school at Rutgers University for Astrophysics, and in the meantime, I am tutoring and working on various academic projects. I have been tutoring math, physics, and astronomy for 3 years. My approach is to help individual comprehension rather than rote memorization. I'm interested in a lot of things outside of just tutoring! I enjoy bouldering, playing the guitar, programming, and hiking with my girlfriend and dog. If you live around the University of Washington,...

While I am here to help students do better in their classes I am also here as a mentor for schooling in general. I am always willing to help out with students who need more help outside of their classes. If there is a non-academic issue that arises while tutoring I will always do my best...

...I have to stay on my toes to teach and so I'm constantly learning new things. When asked what my favorite thing to teach is...that's a hard question! I'd have to say I'm most passionate about kids and teens. I'm also very interested in psychological aspects of growing up. It's challenging! This being said I love working with people of all ages on Nursing and Psychology. I also enjoy teaching kids science. My background....I wasn't...

...science since I was a little kid (I was that weird girl playing with dirt and rocks during recess). I did what I like to call the "Nerd Trifecta" in high school: math team, knowledge bowl, and science olympiad. I've tutored since I was in middle school, and I love finding an explanation or analogy to help someone else really grasp a concept! I'm applying to grad school now, and in my spare time I...

...the keys to lifelong learning. Often the journey to academic success is not a solo one, and I am grateful for the opportunity to share what I know in a way that inspires and educates students. My passion for education stems from a desire to become more aware of the world around me and to help others do the same, whether in the form of writing a paper, passing a test or understanding new concepts....
