Award-Winning Science Tutors serving Tacoma, WA

...for me when learning content in school. I firmly believe that every student can succeed in a subject if they invest enough time into learning it and if the concepts are explained to them well. When I am working with a new student I try to figure out what kinds of explanations reach them the best and incorporate those into my lesson plans. I most enjoy students who are motivated and willing to put in...

In terms of qualifications I am a 4th year Physics and Statistics major, and have completed many college classes in Physics, Mathematics, and Statistics. I have also taken many AP classes in high school including: AP Physics I and II, AP Calc AB and BC, and AP Chemistry. Also, I have experience in mastering standardized testing. For example in the span of...

...style requires that students aren't simply looking for the easy way out; be willing to put in the hard work and dedication and you'll be surprised what you can accomplish! That being said, my favorite moments are when students feel that they cannot solve a problem, and upon giving it a try, they succeed! Outside of studying and tutoring, I enjoy reading, cooking, photography, writing, sketching, and the beach. My favorite food is cotton candy...

...I now aim to obtain a PhD in neuroscience and have three years research experience studying epilepsy pathology. I am immensely passionate about understanding the natural world and tutoring allows me to pass that drive on to others. While I tutor many STEM related subjects, anything Biology related I'm most enthusiastic about teaching. I am a big proponent of the notion that anyone can learn any subject given the right motivation and teacher. Outside of...

...of Washington, majoring in Data Science. I graduated high school in 2019 and am aiming to receive my Bachelor degree by the end of 2021. I enjoy helping people learn and I have a lot of past experiences with giving people the tools they need to succeed. I particularly love tutoring math, physics and computer science because they are very much based on conceptual understanding which is what I like to give my students.

I received my Ph.D. degree from the University of British Columbia. With a career path traversing medicine, biomedical research and education, my goal is to facilitate students learning science, biology and human body. I have helped more than a thousand students including middle school & high school students, undergraduates, graduates, adults, and seniors.

...have recently moved to Seattle from the East Coast, and I am enjoying getting to know the ins and outs of the city and the different culture Seattle has to offer. I am a person that genuinely enjoys teaching and what I do. I especially enjoy one-on-one sessions to really figure out how different people learn different subjects. Once I get to know a bit about the student I focus my tutoring based off what...

...admissions process. t I love getting to know each of my students and their goals for the semester. I do my best to incorporate a student's interests into my lessons to demonstrate how the material is applicable to their own lives. At the same time, I love to use visuals to teach and have students engage in active learning. I find tutors can serve an active or more supplementary role. I let students decide which...

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.

...college in Nebraska, and have found a home in Seattle. I received my B.S. in Architectural Engineering with an emphasis in Electrical/Lighting at the University of Nebraska. While in school, I worked as a teaching assistant in Electrical Engineering while also informally mentoring and tutoring other students in my dorm. I found that motivating and helping others to understand material is one of my most rewarding experiences of my college career, and I am excited...

...have a wide range of tutoring experiences in many subjects, but my strengths lie in mathematics, science, and ACT test prep areas. Having struggled myself the first time I took standardized tests, I understand that even with a solid knowledge foundation tests like the ACT require a substantial amount of exam specific preparation. While my engineering background provides me the opportunity to tutor more advanced math, science, and engineering subjects, I enjoy helping students of...

...the existence of stellar objects--like the prediction of black holes by Einstein in the early 1900s-- predict where our spaceship will land if we fire the rocket at this or that angle, or predict if and how it is possible to produce clean, near limitless energy in the form of cold fusion. It also, by its nature, seeks to explain the different phenomena and mysteries that the world contains. Quantum physics explained why the periodic...

...is to challenge the student by asking questions and providing hints as the student attempts to solve the problem on his or her own, rather than just giving him or her the solution right away. I am very quick to assess the student's needs and abilities in order to determine the right amount of challenge for him or her. After each session I take notes in order to prepare for, and optimize each upcoming session.

...algebra and calculus, which seem to be high in demand. My favorite subjects to teach are calculus and physics. With calculus, there's very little memorization when you understand the fundamentals of limits. Also, there are several ways to approach the material: graphically for those more visual, theoretical for those that like equations, and plug-and-chug for those that prefer processes. Physics is great because same relationships that occur in your everyday experience also occur in space...

...and writing master's theses or dissertations, and presenting information in a clear and confident way. I have also prepared students for the edTPA (capstone project at the end of student teaching) and the Praxis Test (for Para-Educator jobs). I have a 100% success rate with my students on those assessments. While the bulk of my career has been at the college level (undergraduate and graduate), I have had experience teaching middle and high school students,...

...it or not, I used to hate math back in middle school, and I struggled with it. Then, I had a teacher who opened my eyes to the world of mathematics! I am hoping I can be that tutor for you. Changing perspective is something I enjoy doing and helping others is definitely a passion of mine. I also love to organize, which allows me to have an edge on my tutoring abilities.

...in Mechanical Engineering. If Mathematics and Physics are where you tend to struggle academically, then I can help you! I have helped family members study for the SAT and ACT as well as catered to numerous middle school and high school students' needs for guidance when it comes to 'study strategies.' I have completed extensive coursework in Trigonometry, Pre-Algebra, Algebra, Matrix Algebra, Geometry, Physics, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, and Multi-Variable Calculus. Although I know that achieving high...

...before we tackle the problem; that way, I can efficiently help them solve it! I graduated from the University of Washington with a B.S. in Earth and Space Sciences in Summer 2020. As implied by my degree, I enjoy learning and teaching within the STEM field! I tutor in subjects such as geology, environmental sciences, middle school math, algebra, and high school chemistry. I love to tutor in these subjects for two reasons: they were...
