Award-Winning Phonics Tutors serving Redmond, WA

...I have designed and taught two of my own courses as instructor of record, both on Roman History. I find the most enjoyable bits of teaching is taking students through a work - historical, literary, whatever - and helping the student discover the references and connections the author of that work was making, what he or she was trying to say, and to whom - to try to uncover someone else's intellectual world.... I think the...

I am currently getting my Physics degree at Seattle University with minors in mechanical and electrical engineering. I have a passionate for helping students and a drive to inspire them to use the tools from a variety of subject areas to solve problems and achieve their goals.

I recently graduated from Southern Methodist University in Dallas with degrees in Statistics, Economics, and Spanish with a minor in History. I'm fairly new to Seattle and so excited to help learners of all ages! I have experience in Statistics and other STEM subjects, as well as Spanish and leadership/communication skills. I'm excited to teach and learn alongside students!

I am a college student working towards a B.A. in English with an emphasis in Journalism and am passionate about all forms of writing. I have been published in a local newspaper and am currently part of my school's newspaper team. Helping young writers grow and build confidence is important to me. Writing doesn't have to be scary!

...of our less keen abilities rather than let 'em get us down. We don't have to excel at everything to succeed in life, and the same goes for school. In fact, mistakes are evidence of trying, and trying helps us discover those unique strengths that give us an edge. Writing is my all-time favorite subject and I love to help my students become confident writers, too. Thesaurus.com and spell check are certainly must haves, but...

...and teaching since I was in school myself. Altogether, I have been helping friends, family, and clients with their school work and business work for over twenty years. I have always believed that it is possible to have fun and learn at the same time - and I happen to believe that learning is fun! It is always a great privilege for me to be able to help another person get one step closer to...

...have worked as a CNA for 3 months and volunteered for a girls run club in my community. I was a reading tutor for 3 years at an elementary school and worked with a wide range of 3rd to 5th graders. My interest is in medicine, but I enjoy teaching students because it's exciting to see the "aha" moment when everything clicks. It is incredibly rewarding. In my free time I enjoy skating in my...

...was also accepted to Tufts University and the University of Southern California, where I was awarded a merit scholarship, and waitlisted at Harvard University. I have tutored underrepresented elementary school students to improve their reading comprehension and edited college applications for high school students. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about English, Literature, and Reading. As a first-generation low-income student, I understand the importance of education as a form...

...Math but I'm also very talented in the areas of science and language arts. My Dad was an engineer, and my Mom was an English teacher. They made sure I understood the world as well as possible. Please let me do the same for you! When I'm not molding minds, I like to explore the world. Traveling has been a passion of mine since I was a child and I can't seem to get enough!...

...students have said of me, " She's tough, but in a good way" "She's the best instructor I've ever had" "She has a great sense of humor" "Thank you for getting me into the University of Washington." I have an abiding love of life, I am endlessly curious about the world I live in and it brings me joy to share whatever knowledge I have with my students, young people who have their whole lives...

...level--at this point two years' worth working directly with both students and professors--but just as important as that, I understand just as well what it's like to need that sort of tutoring as well. I understand the importance of a non-judgmental atmosphere in which all questions can be asked without fear, of a friendly and empathetic peer who knows why difficulties arise and how to overcome them, and of a source not just of knowledge,...

...tailored learning that grows out of what they're curious and passionate about. Along with reading and writing tutoring, I can also offer students mentorship and tutoring in their creative interests, especially in visual art, design, performance art, creative writing, music, art history and ecological design/planning. These tutoring areas are also where I work as a freelance artist, so I can offer mentorship for young artists to understand and pursue these interests in a professional context....

...areas, I have seen my students grow dramatically in both their skills and confidence. I worked extensively with curriculum development and teacher training in an English-speaking K-12 school in Indonesia, which grew to more than 600 students and received international accreditation in less than ten years. I have visited many countries in Southeast Asia. Besides traveling and spending time with family and friends, I enjoy running, gardening, and playing the piano and flute.

For four years I taught English in Japan to grades K-9, and what I learned was most important in teaching is to simply have a relationship with the children and be patient. Not everyone learns in the same way or at the same rate, and it's sometimes just an issue of finding a method that clicks. ... My teaching philosophy is to lead the student through the problem, and, as much as possible, to let the...

...such as conventions and homeschool summits, working in the schools as a para-educator in special needs classrooms, and more. During the Covid-19 crisis, I continue to work with children on a regular basis through Zoom Youth Group, Sunday School and other organizations that support special needs. My preferences for tutoring are for Pre-K to 4th grades. I love Reading, Creative Writing, Penmanship and Small Motor Skills, Spelling, Language Arts, Grammar and Report Writing, Geography and...

...modernist literature, composition studies, and linguistics. After graduating, I completed a CELTA certificate in ESL teaching, and worked as a one-to-one ESL instructor in Paris for three years, teaching students of every age and level (as well as improving my French, while still speak on a daily basis among my family). While I am passionate about literature, I receive the most personal satisfaction as a tutor by helping students to develop their critical thinking and...

...I find joy in helping others reach their ACT/SAT goal(s). Having tutored ACT and SAT prep full time for going on 5 years, I can efficiently assess a student's strengths and weaknesses, develop a personalized tutoring plan, communicate strategies to better approach the test, teach concepts, and guide students to success. Adaptation to a student's needs is the key to success for both student and tutor. I have ample experience working with students that have...

I have a strong passion for helping students not only reach their education goals but get the most out of the process of learning, let's make it fun and have a good time!

...all levels of students, from elementary school up to college and beyond. I am very patient and understanding by nature, and have a knack for getting to the root of any problem in order to help students understand it themselves. I am not interested in simply just giving you the correct answer. My ultimate goal is to help you develop a deeper, more solid foundation for the subject so you can go beyond just passing...

...throughout my years at school, and have continued to tutor and teach since then. I really enjoy helping students grow their own sense of self-confidence and watching them grasp the material. Sometimes all it takes is a little extra explanation that is hard to get in the classroom when the teacher is focusing on so many students at once. My style is pretty laid-back. I'm friendly and patient, and I will do what I can...
