Hello! My name is Chase and I'm currently a junior at PSU majoring in Physics. I've always enjoyed helping people who are struggling with math and science. It's challenged me to articulate complicated ideas in the form of analogies that tie together abstract concepts and real world experiences. I strongly believe that science and math are subjects that should be understood, and not feared!

...the sea. I am an instructor for a science based summer camp where I teach the fundamentals of science to K-5 students. My favorite part about my job is showing how exciting the world is around us when you dive in deep enough. I love relating subjects like math and physics to the real world to encourage students to want to learn more. When I have some free time, I like to go on hikes...

...a tutor (in home and online). In fact, substitute teaching is a lot like being a tutor. Beyond subject matter content, teaching is always about the self-esteem of the student. Learning is a lifelong process. Each teaching situation is an opportunity to influence positively how a student sees him or herself as a learner. Learning takes place over the course of a school year, semester, quarter, week, or in a five minute time frame (such...

...to Latin, and I love finding new ways to explain complex topics to students. I have a degree in Aerospace Engineering with a minor in Math, but I also have an extensive background in Latin Language, standardized test preparation, grammar, and writing. I'm currently pursuing a Master's Degree in writing, in an attempt to balance my education between the arts and the sciences. I'm excited about having the opportunity to explore new topics with you!

I am a firm believer in the benefits of math and find it...

Math Major at Portland State University. I enjoy helping people learn math!

...that I truly enjoy teaching. It's very rewarding to help others learn new skills they can use to succeed and improve their lives. Through my experiences, I've observed that students learn best when context and purpose are given for the subject matter, and when straightforward instruction with relatable examples are provided. It's unfortunate that too many students suffer because unfamiliar concepts are thrown at them in an unnecessarily complicated way without any explanation as to...

...recommended by professors to serve as a tutor in biology, chemistry, and neuroscience courses for four years. Additionally, at University of Portland I worked in a neuroscience laboratory investigating neurologic correlates of depression and addiction. Currently, I work in the emergency room and am in the process of applying to medical school. My favorite subjects to tutor include cell/molecular biology, anatomy, physiology, general chemistry, behavioral neuroscience, social psychology, sensation/perception. In my free time I like...

I believe in God. I believe He loves everyone. I offer the opportunity to those who are interested, no matter who you or or what your situation. If you would like me to try and help,...

...developing techniques to teach topics on which my pupil knows little to nothing to begin. Further, this information had to be passed on with no margin of error, as a single deviation between tests can render any and all data meaningless. In part through these laboratory experiences, I have learned that true understanding comes from the teaching of central concepts rather than brute-force memorization. In short, you don't learn THAT 62=3, you learn WHY 62=3,...

Hey everybody! My name is Anna Miller. I recently graduated with an MPH in Epidemiology. I have been tutoring math, biology, and test prep for over five years, and I hope I can help with any math questions you may have.

...my friends whenever I get the chance. As a tutor, I try to figure out what methods work best for each student I work with. I fully understand that teaching is not a "one size fits all" sort of thing and everyone learns in different ways. My objective is to find out what works best for the student first, and then go from there. I like to make learning fun and enjoyable so that students...

...student at the University of Michigan Ann Arbor pursuing a major in finance and a minor in mathematics. During the summer of 2017, I suffered a serious knee injury that ended my dreams of playing college basketball; consequently, I shifted my focus from basketball to getting into some of the top institutions in the country. This is something my parents, who are both immigrants with PHD's, always wanted for me and thus, I spent the...

...Life has been far more enriching with both an education and the opportunity to assist others with their education. Additionally, the world we are entering is more demanding of critical thinking skills than ever, so it would be remiss of us not to emphasize intellectual growth. The subject I am most passionate about tutoring is mechanics since this is usually a student's first exposure to synthesizing physical theories with mathematical concepts. Overall, I take a...
