I am a professional whitewater kayaker, and physics is just my hobby. However, I received my PhD in Theoretical Physics from Colorado State University in May of 2014. While at CSU, I spent about eight years as a TA which is far more time than most grad students spend teaching. During that time, I really started to enjoy teaching especially one-on-one and in small groups. I like to focus not just on what the answer to a question is, but rather on the process that leads to that answer. I feel that...More

I'm very interested in working with all students to help them understand math better and learn to like it and continue to pursue it as they move on in school and in life.

I am an exceptional editor; talented at complimenting and fostering strengths while maintaining a sharp eye for mistakes and opportunities for improvement. I can help take a poor piece of writing and make it good. But where I truly excel is in my ability to take decent writing and make it powerful. I know how to wield syntax and descriptive language such that a piece becomes succinct and clear. This enables the author to get their point across exactly as they intend, and to do it succinctly enou...More

I am a native of Seattle and an alumnus of Garfield High School. I graduated from Whitman College in 2011 with a degree in Biology. I have always loved science, and I relish opportunities to explore the intricate workings of the natural world. I find a supreme sense of wonder in learning how the world works, and I delight in sharing this with others. Natural sciences (Biology, Chemistry, and Physics) are my favorite subjects, but I also enjoy Math, History, and Writing. I would be delighted to t...More

I am a recent graduate from Whitman College with a degree in Economics and Psychology. I love to play soccer, climb rocks, and bake pies! I am tutoring to keep my academic skills up before going back to graduate school next year. Looking forward to working with you!

I am also pretty easy-going and empathetic; I like to tell jokes and try to please people around me, so if I am your tutor you can bet that I will do my best to cater to your needs and strengths. I think the best model for tutoring is for me to help you figure out how to work through problems rather than just giving you the answer.

I am a graduate of Whitman College with a Bachelor of the Arts in English. Due to Whitman's liberal arts program, I am also well-versed in Gender Studies, Psychology, and Sociology. Having the knowledge to succeed is one thing, but knowing how to apply and teach it is another. I have seven years of experience tutoring in both individual and classroom settings from elementary school to high school and make it my job to translate obscure concepts into easy-to-understand and relevant examples.

I am a Grad Student studying to become a middle school Earth Science teacher in Richmond, Virginia. I graduated from Whitman College in 2016 and relocated to Richmond in 2018 to work in a print shop. I've loved being an artist, but I've always wanted to teach Special Ed and Earth Science. I am currently pursuing a masters in teaching to be placed in Title 1 schools and plan to pursue a dual certification in Special Ed.

I'm a recent college graduate with a B.A. in Politics. In college, I worked as a Writing Center Tutor for three years, where I helped college students develop their writing projects across the social sciences in humanities. As a Writing Tutor, I coached students through all steps of the writing process, from developing a research paper and crafting a thesis statement, to editing for clarity and grammar. After graduating, I lived overseas for a year where I worked as an ESL teacher. I worked in e...More
