Award-Winning Pre-Calculus Tutors serving Bellevue, WA

...Bachelor of Science degrees in both Mathematics and Computer Science. I tutor both subjects. Everyone has a different learning style; my goal as a tutor is to find out what my student's learning style is and adapt my teaching accordingly. I'm passionate about helping students because I was a student myself in the same situation. Being willing to accept help for a subject is half the battle. I'm here to help fight the other half.

...helped in the past tell me that they have gone on to learn the material much better. When I work with students I like to help them figure out how to do a problem themselves. My style is to not just work through problems for them but instead help them figure out how they can do these problems with all of the knowledge they all ready have but used in a slightly different way. I...

...one of the greatest 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 I would like to be your tutor. I've been a tutor for 5+ years working with individuals, in groups, online and in person. Most of my time tutoring has been with student who are looking to improve their SAT ACT and SSAT scores but I have also worked with a variety of AP tests. If I were to describe my teaching style, when it comes to standardized tests I'm not someone who likes to...

I worked as an Admission's Mentor my senior year and can provide insights into college admissions process. t I love getting to know each of my students and their goals for the semester. I do my best to incorporate a student's interests into my lessons to demonstrate how the material is applicable to their own lives. At the same time, I love to use visuals to teach...

...college level mathematics and statistics, and I have enjoyed helping students to develop their quantitative reasoning abilities. In particular, I like to help students to understand how the subjects they are learning apply in the real world. For example, using statistical methods to predict how well a professional baseball team will perform, or how prime numbers can be used in modern day cryptography. I have found that the best way to make abstract mathematical concepts...

...with a Bachelor's in Mechanical Engineering with a mechatronics focus from the University of Washington, Seattle. Familiar with engineering prereqs such as calculus, chemistry, and physics. Well versed in general mechanical engineering classes (CAD, statics, thermodynamics, etc) and mechatronics classes (controls, embedded, instrumentation, etc). Past experience interacting with elementary and middle schoolers and worked with college undergraduates throughout my time at UW.

...bird nerd. I've had experience tutoring biology, math, and environmental science for the Athletic Department at UW and serving as a Teacher Assistant for UW's Biology Department, including a biodiversity seminar to Peru. Just like the D1 student athletes I work with, academics sometimes don't come naturally, but I look forward to fixing that false assumption. In addition to tutoring, I love playing soccer and I love traveling. I look forward to connecting with you!

...cum laude from Yale University with a B.S. in Economics and Psychology, and I am currently working towards a MSEd at Johns Hopkins University. I've been tutoring for nearly 10 years, in subjects ranging from ESL to econometrics, and I love any opportunity to help my students address their individual learning needs. In my spare time, you'll probably find me enjoying an iced coffee, taking care of my plants, or doing a crossword puzzle.

...Science Center. I also have several years of tutoring experience with middle school students on individualized education plans. I developed a passion for science and mathematics while at college. One instructor in particular fostered this passion by setting high expectations, providing every tool necessary for us to succeed, and sharing his own enthusiasm for the subject. I like to emulate this strategy with my own students leaving them excited and empowered to achieve their goals....

...my tutoring sessions as possible. I believe it's important to acknowledge, forgive yourself for, and learn from your mistakes. If you've ever thought or told yourself "I'm just not a math person", I would love to change your mind. I try to teach my students to have a positive growth mindset in order to reach their goals and gain confidence. I have programming experience with Python and HTML5 & CSS. I've studied both at Western...

...quantum mechanics, the physics of the subatomic realm. One of my advantages as a math tutor, in particular, is that I have first hand experience with many of the applications of mathematics, i.e. to Astronomy, Physics, Economics, and even to "soft" sciences like Psychology through Statistics. Getting students to understand the broader picture of why math is important has proven to be very effective in providing positive motivation for learning math. Math and science aside,...

...back to the original practice problems and ask the student to solve it given their new understanding. Once they have mastered those, I like to give a few of my own problems in that topic to allow students the opportunity for more practice. I repeat this process however many times is necessary so that the student is now a master in that subject. Outside of academics, I enjoy playing tennis and the drums (two hobbies...

...that I am leading involves conceptually designing and physically manufacturing models of idealized airfoils to test in aerodynamic efficiency (computational fluid dynamics) programs I have written in MATLAB. When leading a tutoring session, I like to go through problems methodically, and break them down into their simplest components and concepts before explaining the full solution. I find that this way, complex concepts in calculus and physics become easier to remember, when they are grounded in...

I am currently working towards my bachelors in materials science and engineering from the University of Washington @ Seattle. During my time at university I've been a mentee several times, and now that I'm in my final year and have seen the benefits of mentorship, I am happy to begin mentoring others. This desire to support students extends towards tutoring where I am comfortable to tutor math and science of various levels.

I have a PhD in Fisheries Science with concentrations in Environmental Management and Statistics. I've been a tutor for over 5 years, for ages ranging from elementary school to high school. I believe that with hard work and dedication, any concept can be mastered. I like to cater my tutoring style to the individual student, based on their own strengths and weaknesses in the classroom.

...years, and I love what I do. The best part of my day is when my students are experiencing success and confidence in their math skills. I've taught Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Precalculus, and Calculus. Trigonometry has always been a solid part of my Algebra 2 and Precalculus classes. Many students have said they understand math after I've explained it. My goal is to help my students reach their goals.
