Award-Winning SAT Math Tutors for Students in Kirkland, WA

...the University of Washington. At UW, I was a Pre-Med student, so I am very familiar with Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and other sciences. I also have spent the past few summers tutoring students in Reading and Writing and am able to help with everything from college essays and writing assignments to skills for standardized tests. I'm happy to work with a range of ages and will do my best to help make sessions as useful...

I'm currently a freshman at Pacific Lutheran University majoring in mathematics and technical theater design. My primary goal in any tutoring session is to gather a deeper understanding of any topic we cover together. Above all, I hope to make a little piece of someone's life a bit easier.

...classes. This year I am taking Calculus and Honors Chemistry. Many of the students that I have 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...

...experience teaching and tutoring students in composition, literature, grammar, and ESL. I am passionate about helping students succeed and develop lifetime love of learning. By evaluating areas of student weakness and creating a clear plan to strengthen these areas, I have seen my students grow dramatically in both their skills and confidence. I worked extensively with curriculum development and teacher training in an English-speaking K-12 school in Indonesia, which grew to more than 600 students...

Hello! I'm Hannah, and I am passionate about helping students and adults reach their academic and professional goals through one-on-one, personalized support. With a master's in Education, seven years of teaching experience, and experience tutoring elementary through college-level subjects, I am a versatile tutor who can work with students in developing the necessary academic skills and strategies to be successful.

...Willamette University's Academic Support Center. I worked individually with several students over the course of each semester, helping them develop study habits, identify their challenges, and meet their academic goals. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Writing, Economics, and Mathematics. I am a firm proponent of a growth mindset in education, believing it to be absolutely necessary for developing a sustained desire for knowledge and mastery. In my...

...and out of the classroom. When I was 16, in 2008, I made an instructional video visually showing how to change your default media player to any media player software you want to use, such as VLC, which is a light, RAM considerate alternative to the Windows default Windows Media Player. Even before I knew I wanted to be a teacher, I was teaching. I'm comfortable tutoring algebra, geometry, pre-calculus, calculus, physics, business math, and...

...in Tacoma, WA, and although my degree is in Biology, my interests range far and wide. I like to think that we are only hindered by the limitations we place on ourselves, and that if we open our minds and stay dedicated, we can learn just about anything. This ethos led me to complete my minor in Sociology and Anthropology, take four years of voice lessons and auditioned choir, learn guitar, and write music. Currently,...

...I'm tutoring. For Mathematics based subjects, I tend to take a graphical approach; focusing on addressing weak-points in understanding by presenting the material in a different, more intuitive and visual way. For Political Science, I focus on building contextual and theoretical understanding of the underlying theories and critiques. Outside of academia, I enjoy playing chess, reading, hiking, biking, skiing, cooking, and trying food from around the world. Looking forward to meeting you and helping out...

...WA. I received a competitive, full ride(tuition, room, and board) to Emory University where I studied Physics and Applied Mathematics. I also have extensive experience working in tutoring. One of my most enjoyable moments in undergrad was working as a Research Assistant at Semyung University in optimizing the instruction of curricula for incoming college freshmen. I believe in a problem based approach rather than a lecture based one. Most deficiencies in scores are caused by...

...I seek to provide as many avenues as possible for young learners to immerse themselves in the world of STEM, especially mathematics. I find value in teaching students some of the logic and structures present in higher-level mathematics. These act as scaffolds when students are learning to understand why we can use the algorithms we do rather than simply plugging values in. Mathematics applies to every person's life and through effective pedagogical practices, my goal...

...career. My favorite teachers have all been patient, encouraging, and enthusiastic, and I try to bring that into my tutoring. I tutor biology, everything from microbiology to environmental science. My favorite might be ecology: literally, the root words in ecology translate to "the science of the house," meaning the study of systems and parts of systems interact with each other--how different organisms within a species affect each other, or how different species affect each other,...

I've always loved learning math and science, a fact which I attribute almost entirely to a series of excellent teachers. I want to spread my love of learning by helping students learn through their own exploration and thought, and teach test-taking strategies to improve their mindset while taking standardized tests.

...shame that learning has developed a reputation of being not fun. When students learn how to harness a difficult concept, questions are answered and new ones are discovered. I have studied motivation in educational contexts and have held various teaching/mentoring roles. Having graduated 1st in my class with a Masters degree, I know what it takes to succeed in academic settings. It is effort, not innate ability, that makes people excel. I try to put...

...At all levels, I encourage both the hesitant and eager students 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. Many of my students once nervous about math or science went on to major in these subjects in college with great success. They just had to get over fears and...

...very excited to work with students with different strengths and properly equip them to take on any challenges on their own. I want to instill in each student the proper skills and analytical abilities so that they feel confident in subjects they have been challenged in. I especially enjoy tutoring Pre-Algebra and Calculus as I feel that if I can help build the proper foundation, I can help a student have a strong future in...

...and graduated with 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...

...teaching and tutoring, I love using question strategies to help learn where my students are at in their math skills and to help them to continue to grow in them. Hopefully with me as your tutor, you will learn to like (or dislike) math a little more than you do now! When I am not working with students, I love to bake, watch movies with my husband, read, and spend time with my family.

...because to be taught and to ask for help are inherently acts of courage. I'm willing to work with a student through their frustration and intend, through the process of tutoring, to make validation, the cultivation of genuine interest in a subject, and importantly, fun, focal points of the process. In my spare time, I enjoy reading fantasy novels, listening to and producing music, and taking long walks in nature to procrastinate doing my own...

...Cincinnati. I plan on attending law school in the near future, but I have always enjoyed teaching. I started tutoring during my junior year of high school, finding that I had an aptitude for analogies that helped students learn the material. I tutor a large variety of subjects, including LSAT, SAT, and ACT. I also tutor various academic subjects, primarily in the fields of math and science. My favorite subject to tutor is Chemistry, followed...
