Award-Winning Social Studies Tutors serving Everett, WA

...and US History classes, as well as several other Histories (European, Asian). My main focus is to help students see connections and forces behind historical events -- in short the "Big Picture" -- while also understanding the importance of specific events and people. I frequently conduct one on one sessions with students, which I enjoy greatly, to help them see these points and connections, and to adopt strategies for reading and understanding text books, and...

...(at the same institution) I studied Linguistics, English Creative Writing, and Japanese. My most comfortable tutoring areas include anything to do with writing, whether fiction or non-fiction, and teaching English as a second language. In tutoring, my primary objective is to be of the greatest service possible to my students' particular needs. Short-term as well as long-term goals are very important, and I make a point of keeping aware of these goals. I look forward...

I am a Social Studies teacher.

I'm a graduate of Washington State University with a BA in English who is looking to help others expand their knowledge of literature. I find the analysis of literature to be very interesting and hope to inspire those I work with to feel the same way. I am most versed in early American literature but am familiar with many other types as well. I seek to promote close reading strategies and emphasis on aesthetic analysis.

I am a recent graduate of physics at the University of Arizona, with two years of teaching experience at the college level. During my education, i always found teaching one of the most enjoyable aspects of my day and continue to believe that teaching can spread not only knowledge of a subject, but passion and interest.

I have been working with children in schools, daycares, summer programs, and afterschool programs for 13 years. I hope to use my diverse experiences to foster communities of joyful and eager learners.... I believe that each student travels on their own unique path to knowledge. I believe that a teacher is a guide along these paths, walking alongside each student, supporting them where they struggle and guiding them when there is a fork in the road.

...experience in both tutoring and teaching. I have experience tutoring all elementary subjects, as well as experience tutoring English (for example, essay writing) with elementary, middle school, high school, and college students. Teaching and working with kids is truly my passion and I plan on continuing for the rest of my life. I look forward to meeting new students to create more successful learning experiences! In my free time, I enjoy anything artistic whether its...

...grow into motivators implicitly and explicitly throughout the lesson. Following this student-centered theme, my approach is defined by student need, determined both by what you the student say you need, but also on things I notice during our lessons. Finally, I believe an educator's best aim should be to teach students how to teach themselves! Whatever subject I'm working in, I endeavor to teach students skills that will aid in their mastery of disciplines throughout...

...with degrees in zoology, microbiology, and Russian language. I have several years of tutoring experience with students ranging from ages 9-75. I love teaching languages and science, and I am always ready to tailor my lessons to fit exactly what my students need and want! In addition, I taught ESL to 9-65 year-olds in France for 1 year, HS biology in France, and ESL in Russia for 1 year. I am fluent in French and...

...student learns differently. From experience, I know I am able to alter how I teach dependent on how the student learns. For example, I have a friend who is not a visual learner. I was able to adjust my methods to accommodate her learning style. I have had the opportunity to learn from fantastic teachers. I have been able to learn many helpful tips and tricks to pass on to students. Not only would I...

...grade English teacher inspired me to enter an essay contest and my essay was picked as the winner! I've always been an amateur poet (and by amateur, I do mean amateur) an avid storyteller. I earned my Bachelor's degree in English with an Education minor and my Master's in Professional Writing and Literature. Since then, I've spent most of the last two decades teaching students to read, write, analyze and think critically. I especially love...

...empathetic, and encouraging tutor. My favorite subjects are mathematics and computer science, but I'm not into those lame equations you have to memorize. I love the applied stuff, where you get to use the equations you learn in projects you enjoy (the memorization comes naturally that way). That's why I believe programming and mathematics go hand in hand. You learn some math, and then make a program applying the principles, e.g. using partial differential equations...

...of Art and Environmental Education. Within these disciplines, I have also focused on helping students to improve their language skills in reading, writing and ESL. I have a background in alternative pedagogy and orient my teaching philosophy around student driven and project based learning, as well as holistic youth mentorship. I love to work with students to help them discover their interests and craft individually tailored learning that grows out of what they're curious and...

...to ask and what to look for with a troubled student. I can also tell when the student is drained and can't absorb any more information, which is equally as important. I've been speaking Spanish for over 23 years when I started from not speaking a word to reading and speaking with my Latin family. Who knew an interest built upon necessity would follow me through middle school, high school, and all the way to...

...British Columbia. I have 3+ years of tutoring experience as a reading coach and site assistant at Team Read. I tutor many subjects including science, reading, and writing, though I most enjoy ecology and environmental science as developing an understanding of the world around you is key to becoming a more successful learner. I am especially passionate about teaching students studying habits and organizational skills that will reduce stress around standardized exams. I believe that...

Hi There, My name is Emma. I am a recent graduate for the University of Washington, Seattle, with a PhD in history. I am also a documentary filmmaker.

...(2006) with a degree in geography and history. I am planning on attending Seattle University's Masters of Arts in Teaching program within the next nine months. I have research experience and have travelled extensively in more than 40 countries. For over two years, I lived in the Republic of Georgia, where I taught ESL to Georgian police officers, academy staff and cadets. I also tutored private students on the side, which included SAT and TOEFL...

In addition to my teaching experience, I have also assisted students in preparing for standardized tests, including the CogAt and ISEE. As a fluent speaker of both Vietnamese and English, I am well-equipped to support students from diverse linguistic backgrounds. I am thrilled to have the opportunity to collaborate with you and contribute my skills and expertise...

I am currently getting my Physics degree at Seattle University with minors in mechanical and electrical engineering. I have a passionate for helping students and a drive to inspire them to use the tools from a variety of subject areas to solve problems and achieve their goals.

I have a Bachelor's of Science and Master's of Science in chemical engineering from the University of Wyoming. While I was getting my Bachelor's degree, I tutored athletes in general chemistry, organic chemistry, college algebra, calculus I, physics, and thermodynamics. I love helping students gain confidence.
