Award-Winning Reading Tutors in Washington

...student solves that difficult integral. When tutoring, my approach is to work with the student to first understand the problem and then to logically think through the process of solving it, thereby more fully learning the material. I am a big fan of drawing graphs and figures to understand a problem. In addition to working with numbers, I love the outdoors and enjoy backpacking, hiking, and Ultimate Frisbee. I am also a dork who indulges...

...adults from countries such as Honduras, Guatemala, and more. In 2010, I had the opportunity to work as a Marketing Intern for Telemundo, the second largest Spanish television network here in the U.S. and approximately a year later, I interned with the Latin American Association in Atlanta as a Volunteer Resource Specialist/ Special Events intern. All of these unique experiences have allowed me to hone my Spanish speaking skills to be able to effectively tutor...

...as a puzzle that needs to be solved. When working with young learners, I see myself as tutoring not just the child, but the parents as well. I want to equip learners with the tools they need to be successful outside of our sessions. I have experience working with students with a variety of special needs, including ADHD, autism, behavioral issues, and lack of motivation. My approach to test prep sessions is to equip students...

...teach elementary 1-8, Social Studies 5-8, and Gifted K-12. I loved taking the classes and I love helping others to master the classes.

After I finished my degree(s), I taught elementary school in a regular classroom, then taught gifted classes to third through eighth graders, taught remedial reading, and...

...seven years. I enjoy tutoring Math of all levels up to Pre-Calculus, as well as SAT (both Math and Verbal), Language skills, and History/Government. Having taught at both a small private school and large urban public schools, I have broad experience with different learning styles, backgrounds, and abilities. I find it highly rewarding to help students and guide their progress toward mastering. If something is taught correctly, students will enjoy learning it!

...California, Santa Barbara with a BS in Environmental Studies with a concentration in ecology. I love nature and the outdoors, and Santa Barbara was the perfect place to expand my knowledge in this area. I also studied abroad in Cape Town, South Africa, which allowed me to expand my limits both academically and culturally. I love teaching, art, being outdoors, and learning new things! I am working towards eventually becoming an art teacher.... There is no right or wrong way of teaching. Each student is unique in the way he or she learns, and the most successful way to teach is to understand the student's strengths, weaknesses, and personality.

...Johns Hopkins University with a minor in Entrepreneurship and Management. In my previous tutoring experience, I've worked with students of ages ranging from 10 to 18. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, my favorite to teach are Math, Chemistry, Physics, and Test Prep, because they provide the greatest problem solving challenges. I enjoy working through difficult problems with students, because I believe that with the right guidance, they are universally capable of rising...

I look forward to meeting with you and working with you to build...

...English Literature, which sharpened my skills in logic and close reading. As a tutor, I believe in engaged learning. My sessions aren't silent reading and memorizing; we will talk about everything and have fun doing so! I believe that every student can improve and learn more, whatever their skill level or age. My goal is to make learning fun for my tutees. I don't want tutoring sessions to be something they dread; I want them...
