Award-Winning Physiology Tutors in Kirkland, WA

...of finding the style of learning that is most effective for them. What works or makes sense for one student will not necessarily work for the next student, and so it is essential as a tutor to be able to explain the same concept in a variety of different ways and to be able to determine when a student has fully grasped the concept. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with family and...

...up along the sandy beaches and bustling cities of Massachusetts and after college, I decided I wanted to embark on an adventure, so I relocated to Seattle. During my undergraduate career, I tutored college students for three years in math, biology, some chemistry, writing/English, and a myriad of other subjects. Although I majored in the hard sciences, my favorite subjects to tutor in are English and writing. I enjoy reading student's original thoughts and helping...

Teaching is best accomplished in a setting that is supportive, engaging, and trusting. These attributes help build confidence and excitement about learning, and...

...fabulous opportunity to study a broad range of sciences in detail. I completed my teaching degree at Oxford University (UK) a couple of years later. Having completed my teaching qualifications, I had a number of very rewarding years teaching Biology and Chemistry to high school students before moving to Seattle for my husband's job in 2008. In addition to my teaching experience, I have tutored a number of students in the UK, adapting my tutoring...

...advantages humans have. As a prospective medical student, I know what it is like to sometimes not fully understand a concept or subject. As a student who at first struggled to learn some of the toughest material, I learned from mistakes and shortcomings how to effectively learn and understand any concept. I love to teach people how to tackle a problem, how to truly grasp an idea for a strong foundation, and how to apply...

...high school science and religion courses in Ogden, Utah. During this time I earned my Master of the Arts in Teaching degree from the University of Portland which licensed me to teach at the secondary level.

My interest in...

...(Seattle) and will be graduating in the Spring of 2015 with a B.S. in Bioengineering. I have experience working with students as young as kindergarten to as experienced as undergraduates in college. I tutor reading, writing, science (physics, chemistry, biology), mathematics (all levels up to calculus), and MCAT preparation. My teaching style revolves around discussion of the material and doing practice problems to test understanding. I am very patient and don't get frustrated easily. Outside...

...from Virginia Tech with a B.S. in Chemistry and Biochemistry. I am currently attending pharmacy school at VCU to pursue a career as a pharmacist. During my time at Virginia Tech, I have tutored elementary and middle school students in science and math. A true sense of reward comes from teaching young students. Most of my students struggled and were often afraid to say what they thought because of the fear of being wrong. As...

...most passionate about subjects that can be applied to human medicine, including Anatomy, Physiology, Cellular and Molecular Biology, Pharmacology and Microbiology. I believe that rote memorization is ineffective. It is better to seek to truly understand the fundamental principles of a topic and then use that information to reason out the best answer on a standardized test. My goal as a tutor is to give my students that fundamental understanding, and also teach the "test-taking...

...was that moment when my friend finally connected the dots between the concepts and gained a sense of confidence at the end. I had to use all sorts of methods: drawing cartoons, wildly gesturing (even though we were in a library) and coming up with all sorts of analogies. I remember being pretty drained from squeezing out all my energy to help my friend understand the material. But all was paid off when she finally...

I would be delighted to tutor students in any subject, and I am happy to help with standardized test prep, study...

...well. As a student, I have come to the realization that students don't do well in classes that are strictly lecture based. Students learn in several different ways, and I will adjust myself to those learning styles, whether auditory, visual, kinesthetic, or some combination of the three. I will commit to teaching students that are seeking furthering their minds and intelligence. Generally, I tutor students from grades K-12. The subjects I tutor are as follows:...
