Although I am a staunch believer in lifelong learning, I always aim to impart in my students the importance of learning as a vehicle for enriching both themselves and those around them: rather than secluding in the proverbial ivory tower, students should be empowered to be the rising tide that lifts all boats with them. I specialize in teaching English literature, ESL, world and US history, drawing and...

...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 to help you...

...students the skills necessary to succeed in science and mathematics, particularly in grades 6th through 11. Most of my teaching methods and exercises are derived primarily from a student's current textbook, and by practice problems which I create from 'real world' situations. In addition, I have helped a number of students prepare for the SAT and ACT writing component by offering critical advice on how best to organize and defend a position on any given...

...secondary education. I am a Texas and Washington certified teacher with an endorsement in math. Before I moved to Washington I spent 2 years teaching PAP Geometry and PAP Algebra 2.

...school. The subjects I tutor include test prep, math, and English. As someone who recently went through the US testing system for college admissions, I know how stressful AP tests, SATs, and ACTs can be. As a tutor, I aim to help students feel as prepared as they can for these standardized tests, giving students the confidence to succeed. In my spare time, I enjoy doing pilates and yoga, listening to music, and hiking.

...a friendly, empathetic, and encouraging tutor. My favorite subjects are mathematics and computer science, but I'm not into those lame equations you have to memorize. I love the applied stuff, where you get to use the equations you learn in projects you enjoy (the memorization comes naturally that way). That's why I believe programming and mathematics go hand in hand. You learn some math, and then make a program applying the principles, e.g. using partial...

...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 learning disabilities: ADD,...

...to succeed. I tailor lesson plans to different learning styles and abilities. With the extra attention I give, my students consistently tell me they have learned more than they ever thought possible for themselves.

I have flexible hours and diverse teaching and tutoring...
