Award-Winning Math Tutors for Students in Vancouver, WA

...was incredibly rewarding, as the evidence of my daily work could be directly observed, and the difference I was making seemed to have 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...

...flow, grammar mechanics, and citation style. When working with papers, I follow strategies that we were taught to use at the writing center, which include reading papers out loud to help find problematic sentences, doing reverse outlines to check the organization and effectiveness of the papers argument, and teaching the sandwich method of using quotes to help students avoid overusing other people's words. My favorite concept to explain from my time working at the writing...

I have the most experience tutoring lower division engineering classes such as this (physics, statics, strength of materials, mechanics) but also enjoy and am comfortable with a wide array of math subjects from algebra to calculus. I am a very interactive and hands on tutor, and believe a free-flowing dialogue between student and teacher is essential for maximum learning...

...has a unique way to learn. Some children are auditory learners, some are visual learners, and others are a combination of both. It is easy to learn in an environment that makes children curious and not afraid to take chances. Children need to use their mental abilities and social skills, take what they learned, and apply it to life learning. A teacher is to guide and help them but not enabling the child by being...

...in a virtual school. I focus on reading. I also teach social skills and study skills. I have worked with students ranging from kindergarten through ninth grade and have enjoyed all of my experiences. Reading skills are so important that no matter what I am working with a student on, be it science, social studies, or even math, we will be practicing and improving out reading skills in that area of study.

...his free time volunteering in the medical field, I got extremely excited about perusing a job that involves helping students who are currently in the same shoes that I was in years ago. With respect to tutoring experience, I would like to say that I grew up tutoring my younger sister and cousins pretty much throughout Elementary, Middle and High school.

As your tutor, I hope to get to know you and your interests,...

...algebra to test prep. When I was in college, I continued my passion and tutored freshman level mathematics and accounting. During my first year in Portland I was part of a tutoring company in which I tutored several students. Needless to say, math is my passion. As a student who has taken loads of math classes, I have watched my friends struggle through not only the subject but the teaching methods. My experiences as a...

...at Oregon Health and Science University. I graduated cum laude from the University of Oregon with a degree in biology and a minor in chemistry. I have a lot of experience tutoring biology, biochemistry, anatomy, and physiology at the college level as well as working with students of all ages with math, science, and English. I love creating an interactive learning environment where the student and I work together towards solving problems rather than just...

My goal is to get my students to the point where they no longer need me. I like to focus on the underlying concepts so that students can apply what we learn in our sessions to problems they haven't seen before. After our sessions, my students should be able to have a concrete plan when attempting a new problem and be able to extrapolate their knowledge of concepts to master the details.... Concepts first, details later....

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....

Hi, my name is Ben. I've been math tutoring for 6 years now. I have experience working with age groups from elementary age students to college students. I try to make math comprehensive to everyone I teach by demonstrating solutions to problems as best I can and also working with what they know. I believe that asking questions and making as few assumptions as possible is to solve any problem, no matter how complex.

...I worked as a tutor and/or a teaching assistant for more than three years during school and always enjoyed doing it. I love to learn about everything, and being able to pass on that love on learning is a big part of why I tutor.

...enjoyment I find with these subjects with students that are struggling. I believe every student, regardless of the subject and individuals' capabilities can succeed. With enough effort and help, even the hardest of subjects can become much easier. Outside of tutoring, some of my hobbies include cooking, exercising, soccer, and video games. Other than cooking, each of these hobbies have been a part of my life since I was a kid and continue to partake...

...describe my tutoring style as fun and adaptive. I understand that while a majority of students struggle with Math, making it fun usually helps take away many of these struggles, as well as limits a student from becoming bored or disinterested in the subject.
