Award-Winning SAT Tutors in Redmond, WA

...I have tutored and taught several undergraduate chemistry courses, including: general chemistry, organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, and high school chemistry. I absolutely love teaching students. I most enjoyed when students understood the concepts and could apply them to new problems. I believe it is most important for students to understand the concepts, rather than memorize specific formulas, reactions, or mechanisms. By learning the concepts, you can apply the concepts to problems to more challenging problems....

...at the same time. I was also a general tutor for the whole school after hours. I learned a great deal about the nuances of working with the students, their families, and the resources that were available to them. I also understand the different types of student learning. There is so much to keep track of and take care of when it comes to a child's education and I know I am up for that...

...teach language. Most recently, I spent a winter in Quito, Ecuador, interning with the NGO Care International. My junior year of college, I spent a quarter abroad in Berlin, immersed in German language and culture. I am excited to tutor Spanish up to the level of working proficiency, and German to intermediate conversation level. I have always had a passion for math, calculus especially, and even as a high school student, enjoyed helping others learn...

...Of course, there are numerous occasions where memorization is unavoidable. In those cases, we will work together as a team to find a way that suits YOU best to make it as easy (and fun) as possible. I always try to gain a deep understanding of the concepts that I learn. It may seem like a lot of work--which sometimes it is; but trust me, it is always worth it in the long run. With...

I embrace a student centered approach to student learning. This means that I let the student lead the discussion of a particular problem. I have been teaching for 6 years at the high school level, having come off a BS in Math with a minor in Physics from UC Merced(go bobcats).

Over the last 20 years, I have seen all types of classes, teachers, exams, and homework. I've been the student, the tutor, the teacher, and the professor. Whatever it is that you need to get ready for, I will take the time to make sure you can get to where you want to be!

I have tutored in both individualized and group settings for various purposes, including SAT test prep, supplemental learning, and as a primary teaching resource. To that end, I have endeavored to truly understand my students on a personal level to make sure that the way I am tutoring them is the best way for them to learn. I have constructed lesson plans for both a single person and an entire 30 student classroom.

...a local squash team and provide academic tutoring every day after school. Furthermore, I also served as a teachers assistant for my math teacher in high school and gained a great amount of exposure to seeing school and academics in the eyes of a teacher. Through this experience, I gained a much better understanding of how students can improve their grades through utilizing their school's resources, communicating with their teacher, and better understanding the goals...

I am a professional scientist with multiple years of experience in the biopharmaceutical field. I have spent time in the classroom with elementary aged students and am comfortable with this age group. I am also familiar with AP classes and ACT/SAT preparation. I look forward to sharing my love of learning with students and helping them achieve academic goals!

...living and studying in Chile from 2015-2016, I worked with a non-profit startup called Observa Ciudadania that taught civic education workshops to at-risk high school students to get them involved in political action before they could vote. I organized and taught courses in Spanish in a small classroom setting, fostering discussion and thought in students who were accustomed to rote memorization. Furthermore, I worked extensively with high school students in Fiji as the Village Coordinator...

...education is easy for the one being subjected to its process is either ignorant or unwise. One could suppose that's another way of pointing out those who haven't been part of it, but that's not my purpose. My purpose is to aid those in the muck of it so their efforts and time expenditure are met with appropriate results, because things are not easy and often times quite grueling. But we deserve better from those...

...and creative ideas on paper, whether for an analytic paper or college application essay. In tutoring sessions, I encourage students to reflect upon their reading experience and get ideas on paper. I also work with students to develop a comprehensive understanding of literary devices and writing mechanics, which can help with both standardized tests and school assignments. I am a patient and kind teacher but am also able to challenge students. In addition to studying,...

...and loyalty to my students is how I build rapport. I received a double bachelor's degree in Fine Art and Psychology from UC Santa Cruz in 2015. I received my Master in Teaching from Seattle University and my teaching credential in 2019. I am endorsed in Elementary Education, Middle Level Mathematics, and Visual Arts. I taught math and art at a middle school for 3 years, and I'm currently just taking time to tutor students...

I am a potential friendly mathematician who is also interested in computer programming.

...writing includes preparation and organization of numerous grant and fellowship applications, including budget formulations. In graduate school, I learned how rewarding teaching can be while instructing undergraduate lab courses of up to 32 students at a time in subjects including introductory biology, introductory life sciences, cell biology, and vertebrate embryology. Office hours consisted of one-on-one tutoring to help those most in need gain a better understanding of topics they were not fully comfortable with following...

...University of Washington's interdisciplinary Bioengineering program. This is a highly competitive program that requires proficiency in nearly all areas of high school and college level science and mathematics subjects, which is why I chose to teach these subjects on the Varsity Tutors platform in 2018 (my freshman year of college). When I'm not tutoring, I like to spend my time running, hiking, reading, coding, and doing research. If there's anything else you'd like to know...

...their homework for community service hours. Currently, a student at the University of Washington, my main focus in school is Mathematics and Informatics. I picked Math as my major since it has always interested me, although I have a lot of experience from high school helping kids to write fluent essays.

...education is being able to truly align with what you learn by finding a sense of purpose and joy in the mastery of even the most challenging of subjects. In other words, I aim for tutoring to not only be an aid for mental understanding but an avenue for turning the subject at hand into a fulfilling part of the overall life of the scholar. Therefore, I also work well with those who may be...

...set of ideas is distilled into a viscerally understandable (and exciting!) bite-sized concept, I get a sense of fulfillment like nothing else. Learning math or science is all about that one moment where everything "clicks" into place, and when it happens, you notice. That feeling is what drives my love for mathematics, science, and other related disciplines, whether I am experiencing that "click", or especially when I help others reach that point.
