Award-Winning PSAT Tutors serving Seattle, WA

...15 years; I love working with people and helping them grow intellectually and personally. My main areas of focus are: psychology, history, philosophy, and writing. I have a master's degree in history and a master's degree in psychology. As a tutor, I do my best to be: patient, understanding, creative, and hardworking. Each student is unique and thus arrives with his or her own set of challenges and strengths; I strive to encounter the student...

I'm interning in the transportation sector while I finish up my undergraduate studies at the University of Washington in Seattle. I once had a great Calculus tutor myself and I'd like to help others with the skills I have. My favorite topic is SAT Math. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

As the oldest of five children, I have extensive experience as both a mentor and a teacher. I received my undergraduate degree from Emory University in Anthropology, with a focus on religion and philosophy. After graduating, I spent three years in Africa and Asia working in sustainable development and teaching English to both adults and children,...

...efficiency in the testing environment through unique strategies and techniques. My sessions are generally really laid back and there shouldn't be any pressure. I am also well versed in Computer Science, especially Java and Android Development. In the past two years, I interned at the Boston University Computer Science Department as well as University of Washington Medicine and can offer you advice on finding opportunities outside of the classroom. In my free time, I create...

...since I was a little kid (I was that weird girl playing with dirt and rocks during recess). I did what I like to call the "Nerd Trifecta" in high school: math team, knowledge bowl, and science olympiad. I've tutored since I was in middle school, and I love finding an explanation or analogy to help someone else really grasp a concept! I'm applying to grad school now, and in my spare time I love...

I'm a graduate of Washington State University with a BA in English who is looking to help others expand their knowledge of literature. I find the analysis of literature to be very interesting and hope to inspire those I work with to feel the same way. I am most versed in early American literature but am familiar with many other types as well. I seek to promote close reading strategies and emphasis on aesthetic analysis.

...disorders. This experience has also helped me fine-tune my ability to aid in homework management and study skills. This past year, with the Covid-19 pandemic and subsequent stay-at-home mandates, I have refined my online tutoring skills and am now proficient at aiding students electronically using online tools and video conferencing software. I graduated with my Associate of Science degree at the same time I graduated with my high school diploma. I then went on to...

...a tutor in several capacities 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...

I tailor my lessons based on my student's needs. Everyone is different, with different goals, so I try to focus on what they need to achieve those goals.

...6th, 9th and 10th as well as one-on-one and small group tutoring in French. I plan lessons that bring art, food, games and geography together with language practice. For younger students, I incorporate puppets and role play as well as song and movement. For older students, I make the more academic aspects of written and spoken French transparent and achievable by listening to students and breaking down complex ideas. I have a near-native accent and...

...graduate degree in progress. During this time, I have also collaborated on research with the departments of Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and Computer Science. During my studies, I have been a Tutor and a Facilitator for various courses, such as PreCalculus, the Calculus series, Linear Algebra, Multivariable Calculus, and Differential Equations. My focus throughout my studies has always been on synthesising what I've learned into the most understandable components for my students, tailoring the content to...

...bard for a second grade teacher. He got me hooked on the Odyssey, which ended up defining my academic life. Writing, myth, journalism, linguistics, history: it's all a part of this huge story, a story with lots of parts we're all working on. I'm a nerd about how it works, and I've studied it from a lot of angles. As a tutor, I'm all about helping people find their voice and that part in the...

...My experience as a tutor has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. Students often gave me positive feedback on my tutoring techniques, and I've seen many of them succeed in their classes after using the tutoring center and getting my help. I think the best qualities in a tutor are patience and empathy. As a tutor, I've always tried to put myself in the student's shoes and try to find different...

...when I was 17 and I quickly realized I was a natural teacher, but more importantly, I discovered I truly enjoyed teaching. For the 3 years I attended law school, I tutored college students in English, Psychology, Literature, and a variety of other subjects. One of my favorite authors once wrote that the ability to impart knowledge consists of two things: first of a natural talent for dealing with students, for getting in their minds...

...the focus of my study was on polymer and materials science. While at UO, I taught freshman and sophomore chemistry classes, and I still keep in touch with many of my students. I also previously earned a Bachelor's degree in biochemistry from the University of West Florida. I have lots of experience teaching and tutoring chemistry students of all levels, and I also have done some work in the past with SAT test prep. I...

...plan to use this experience to pursue a Ph.D. in cognitive neuroscience (the study of how we form and access memories). My interest in neuroscience fuels my philosophy of education. I think all students have a profound capacity to learn and my role as an educator is to help the student unlock their potential. In my time as a teacher and even during my own education, I had the opportunity to work with many peers...

...Russian language. I have several years of tutoring experience with students ranging from ages 9-75. I love teaching languages and science, and I am always ready to tailor my lessons to fit exactly what my students need and want! In addition, I taught ESL to 9-65 year-olds in France for 1 year, HS biology in France, and ESL in Russia for 1 year. I am fluent in French and love teaching the language.

...my students and asking clarifying questions to understand the root of their difficulties. I try to challenge students to critically engage with their material, as well as providing examples and supplemental materials that are suited to their learning style, allowing them to approach the subject from multiple angles until they find one that works for them. I believe in patience, but I also believe that if something is not working, there is another method out...

I am entering my fourth year of chemical engineering at the University of Washington. I have always loved math and science, as I feel they are subjects that are easy to tackle with fundamental steps that apply to various problems. I look forward to helping you all achieve your goals!

...that everyone can be successful. The same strategies won't work for everyone, and certain subjects might be harder for some people, but hard work and good studying skills will always be more important than natural talent. I also think that biology is an amazing, inspiring field of study, and that there's something to be excited about for everyone. When I'm not tutoring, I love to sing, go bird watching, read, and cook. I also keep...
