...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.

...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 love cooking and baking (it's vaguely scientific, right?). I rowed in high...

While I tutor a variety of subjects, my passions are Biology and Chemistry. In my free time, I snowboard, read, cook, hike, watch movies and TV,...

...experience in the health care profession. While at Highline, I tutored college students who struggle in their classes. I worked with a very diverse group of students whose age ranges from 16 to 40 and they come from many different backgrounds. I remember when I was a college student, I went through the same things that they are going through which makes it easier for me to work with them. With my experience and knowledge,...

...are especially fun for me. (Though I am very comfortable teaching math as well). I spent my junior year abroad: first in Montpellier, France, studying French literature and art history, then at the University of Cambridge, studying Shakespeare! I love to travel, and hope to do more of it in the future. I also enjoy helping students with their French language learning goals, so that they can get the most out of their travel experiences...

...students achieve their goals. Preparing for a standardized test can feel overwhelming. But you really can be prepared. Careful, concept-oriented preparation can help ensure that students don’t run into anything radically new on exam day. My preparation strategy aims to give students the instruction they need to recognize as many problem types as possible. Sitting for a standardized test can be a stressful experience for many people. I try to give students a firm toolkit...

...and Harvard, but I'm waiting to hear back from a few more schools before I make my final decision about where to go. I've taken the SAT, GRE, and the LSAT, so I'm a pro when it comes to standardized tests. I got bitten by the teaching bug while in graduate school, where I worked as both a teaching assistant and a tutor. I absolutely love the moment when my students finally understand a topic...

...the world around us opens up so many doors, its a shame that learning has developed a reputation of being not 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,...

...all ages from subjects ranging from math to geology to, again, English, and I taught six quarters of college English at WWU. I ask that you: -Ask questions! This is the number one missed opportunity for students at all levels. This will directly assist your own learning as well as help me calibrate that and future sessions. -Seek connections. What causes what, how do these two things relate, how can A be applied to Z?...
