...German, and I have spent a fair amount of time abroad in the country doing various administrative internships and completing study abroad programs, but my strong math background has instilled in me a great appreciation for mathematics and the natural sciences. The SAT is a good place to see these two realms of mathematics and liberal arts come together, and because of this, I feel I can be a big help tutoring in the SAT...

I am a college student at Seattle University studying for my BS in Psychology. I love learning and believe that everyone should be allowed the opportunity to engage in the knowledge the universe has to offer. In my spare time, I can be found snuggling my dog, Luxe.

...Working for Concordia Language Villages, as a counsellor at a French Immersion Camp, has taught me how to effectively teach French using a wide variety of methods and activities. Supporting students in creative ways was key to that job, but working as a writing coach also gave me the experience necessary to guide serious students through complex writing projects. Though my professional interests tend towards the humanities, I love to unscramble equations and help students...

...academic projects. I have been tutoring math, physics, and astronomy for 3 years. My approach is to help individual comprehension rather than rote memorization. I'm interested in a lot of things outside of just tutoring! I enjoy bouldering, playing the guitar, programming, and hiking with my girlfriend and dog. If you live around the University of Washington, you might have seen me hosting public astronomy nights at the campus observatory or star-gazing in Red Square.

...that the SAT is a stressful experience for many students, and I vow to work with you to make it more of a fun challenge that you are ready to conquer. I firmly believe that taking charge of your learning and seeking help is an important part of your learning journey. That's where I come in: my goal is to help get you to that "Aha!" moment, when a previously confusing topic clicks with you....

...environment. At YWA, I taught all high school science classes (including AP, Computer Programming, and Environmental Science) and all levels of high school math.

I recently graduated from Columbia University where I majored in English Literature. I'm also a pre-medical student, and I am currently taking a gap year teaching at an elementary school in Seattle before I apply to medical school next year. I have the most experience tutoring elementary and middle school students, but I am also comfortable with teaching english, math, and science K-12, and also the MCAT. Please get in touch if you are interested!

...in Teaching and Teacher Education. I've worked with UA's Project SOAR as a mentor, and as an English teacher at Flowing Wells High School, where I also advised the National Honor Society. Communication, in my opinion, is the most important skill to develop in life, and I love getting to put it into practice each day as I teach it! I am passionate about encouraging discussion and introspection through texts that are important to our...

...a prospective medical student, I know what it is like to sometimes not fully understand a concept or subject. As a student who at first struggled to learn some of the toughest material, I learned from mistakes and shortcomings how to effectively learn and understand any concept. I love to teach people how to tackle a problem, how to truly grasp an idea for a strong foundation, and how to apply these nuanced methods for...

...academic goals. In May of 2020, I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Willamette University, where I attained degrees in Mathematics and Economics. During my time at Willamette University, I worked at the university's Writing Center, where I worked individually with students on a wide variety of written assignments, ranging from grant proposals to senior theses. I also was a tutor with Willamette University's Academic Support Center. I worked individually with several students over the course...

...In Taiwan, I was both an English kindergarten teacher and a cram school EFL teacher. As an ESL Tutor in Massachusetts I worked primarily on my students' academic English and did a couple hours a week of preparation for the TOEFL and SAT. Tutoring has been an immensely educational experience for me. I have learned much about how to properly prepare students for the tests they'll have to take as well as the challenges they...

...I feel most passionate about English, Literature, and History. I believe in a student driven approach to teaching that adapts and adjusts to different learning styles and personal traits in order to best serve my student's needs. Learning is a lifelong process and should be encouraged and nurtured across all aspects of our daily lives and personal interactions. When I'm not tutoring, you might find me on a local trail or beach with my dog....

As an engineering student, I am very familiar with high level math, physics, chemistry, and other STEM courses, as well as English, writing, and public speaking. I can use teaching methods demonstrated by my professors to teach others. In high school, I tutored younger students in Latin, using techniques like flashcards and quizzes.

...with students because it allows me to find creative ways to help them master new concepts. My teaching style is all about helping students problem solve so that the end result is not only a better grasp of a subject but also a stronger sense of self-empowerment anytime they tackle something new. I grew up in Lake Tahoe, CA, where my winters were spent in skis and my summers were spent in swimsuits. I also...

...regard is my ability to approach a problem from multiple angles. If the first approach I suggest for a problem isn't clear to a student, I can usually come up with an alternate, sometimes more intuitive way of addressing the same problem. Recreationally, I spend a significant fraction of my time developing my problem-solving skills with the Mathematica programming language. I also enjoy building small digital and analog circuits, for entertainment and study purposes.

...the past few years, my work has been almost exclusively in educational settings with youth. I spent five summers at a summer camp devoted to social and environmental justice, working with all age groups and doing everything from managing a day program to leading extended backpacking trips. I spent a year working as a wilderness therapy field guide, helping students achieve a breakthrough in their personal lives in a backpacking setting in central Oregon. And...

...platforms, such as Zoom. Last year I taught 6th grade honors English and 8th grade English for a school in my local district. During my student teaching (which occurred during the height of the pandemic) I taught entirely virtually and learned how to form meaningful relationships with students even through a computer screen. In addition, I found ways to utilize technology effectively in order to keep engagement levels high. I have also worked with adult...
