Award-Winning Test Prep Tutors serving Everett, WA

...study, I understand the value of education in different aspects and cultures. From my experience, also as a business owner who coach younger ones, I was able to boil down what is the utmost important in teaching/learning process. I believe "to learn" is an active verb, which must comes willingly from the learners. That means a teacher's job is not only to help the learners understand the material, but also to create trust and passion,...

...teaching ESL in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan. While I love studying literature of all genres, I feel the most impactful literary experience is one that deeply resonates with the reader, and inspires them to write their own stories. This is why I am an advocate for detailed, creative, and personal essay writing. The most powerful essay or piece of academic writing is one which is inspired by the writer's personal instincts and experiences. In my tutoring, I...

...law and policy and a minor in mathematics. I have tutored high school and college level mathematics and statistics, and I have enjoyed helping students to develop their quantitative reasoning abilities. In particular, I like to help students to understand how the subjects they are learning apply in the real world. For example, using statistical methods to predict how well a professional baseball team will perform, or how prime numbers can be used in modern...

...didn't pass during the year. I also substitute taught for three years. I tutor secondary english, which includes such things as literature, essay writing, public speaking, creative writing, and anything else that would fall under the language arts umbrella. When working with students, I don't worry about where they "should" be, instead I focus on where they are, and where they want to go. Two things I find especially rewarding are helping a student discover...

I recently graduated from the University of Washington's rigorous Mechanical Engineering program. I have over a year of professional tutoring experience. This includes experience with middle school, high school, and college students. It also includes experience tutoring students with various learning disorders and attention/retention issues, as well as students who are very quick to learn.

...3 levels of training. There is nothing better than seeing the look on a student's face when he or she "gets it." I love that. I have found great joy in teaching, and for the time that I am with a student, nothing is more important than making sure you are comfortable and you understand the material. I have a lot of experience with mathematics, and frankly, I think I have been blessed so that...

...love to travel, and hope to do more of it in the future. I also enjoy helping students with their French language learning goals, so that they can get the most out of their travel experiences as well. I don't know about you, but I am also an extremely nervous test taker. I have developed several test preparation techniques that I would be happy to work with you on, so that you are confident and ready...

...adults for seven years. I worked as a teacher's assistant at Carl Sandburg College for my last two undergraduate years. After graduation, I worked for two years in the Adult Education department at the College of Lake County. I helped adult community members to learn English and earn their GEDs. At a high school near my home, I took over the classes of a Spanish teacher as she went on maternity leave. It went well...

...went to 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...

...been a fan of memorizing facts, so whenever possible I like to tackle concepts in a manner that will explain the “why.” In my own learning I find I can grasp issues better by breaking them up into small, manageable steps and concepts, so this is what I strive for in helping others as well. I find this approach tends to lead to a deeper understanding so students are able to recognize and navigate similar...

...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 test prep areas. I have tutored German at my home university and in some capacities abroad, at a language school in Dsseldorf meant for international students learning German. Patience and a mutual understanding have always been key for any student...

...to college freshman, helping to bring students with a wide variety of educational backgrounds up to college level. I love helping students learn to craft an argument, chose their thesis and points, and build a structured, polished essay. I believe all students bring a unique and important perspective to their writing, and my job is helping them find their voice. In my free time, I work as an audio engineer, help out with gardening and...

...us to learn and find the right. Once students started to incorporate this into their mentality, tutoring sessions would suddenly become just casual conversations because my students were basically teaching and motivating themselves. If given the opportunity, I will motivate my students as a tutor and be with them every step of the way. I don't want my students to feel lost and discouraged. I want them to feel empowered and curious no matter where...

...Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater. I am thrilled to be carrying my love for mathematics into the future in the form of tutoring. There are few things more beautiful or satisfying to me than the way complex equations break down into simple, easily solved calculations. My goal in tutoring is to ease the stress that frequently occurs when a student encounters a difficult problem and to show students how to put equations into terms with...

...all backgrounds, and to seek out ways to encourage those who are underrepresented in mathematics to pursue the subject. While I have learned much about teaching mathematics thus far, and believe myself able to practice it effectively, I am under no illusions as to having perfected it. Indeed, I feel that perhaps the most important aspect of a good tutor is the willingness to continually grow: to seek out new ideas and innovations, to maintain...

...and international studies (with a focus in Europe and international security), and gained a concentration in gender and sexuality studies. Thanks to journalism, I’ve traveled and lived all over the United States, from New York to Los Angeles to Houston. My biggest passions are English and literature, and I love to instill that passion in others, whether that means helping someone work through writing a difficult essay or prep for the critical reading portions of...

...honors in Chem and Math. Now an online tutor. The flexible schedule means I can travel and have waaaaaay more awesome hobbies than any one man should be allowed to have, basically Indiana Jones! If Indy were a barefoot chemist, and also a future carny... Anyway I really enjoy nerding out about science and science-like things, green/nuclear energy(!!!), videogames, politics, or fantasy. I read a looooot of fantasy and sci-fi! So c'mon, learn something from...

...from Kennesaw State University in Kennesaw, GA. I 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...

...quickly realized I was a natural teacher, but more importantly, I discovered I truly enjoyed teaching. For the 3 years I attended law school, I tutored college students in English, Psychology, Literature, and a variety of other subjects. One of my favorite authors once wrote that the ability to impart knowledge consists of two things: first of a natural talent for dealing with students, for getting in their minds and putting things in a way...

...elementary school students, middle school students, and high school students. Most of my students are aiming for scores that will help them get into highly selective universities. Some of my students also have ADHD, autism, or communication disorders. All of my students expect to work very hard in order to achieve their goals. In my free time, I like to watch foreign and independent films, sample new restaurants, and discuss politics with my friends. I...
