Award-Winning Trigonometry Tutors in Everett, WA

...learn the material. I tutor a large variety of subjects, including LSAT, SAT, and ACT. I also tutor various academic subjects, primarily in the fields of math and science. My favorite subject to tutor is Chemistry, followed closely by Physics. I feel that anyone can learn anything as long as it is explained in a way that is conducive to them, and I aim to achieve that in my teaching. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy...

...experience pertains to one-on-one or small-group tutoring. In addition to enjoying tutoring, I also enjoy seeing my students succeed. In middle school, I struggled to find motivation in the field of mathematics, as many of my teachers didn't spend enough time supporting me and their other students. Only in high school did I grow very interested in math, as my teachers set enough time aside to discuss the material and to further student interest through...

...in less-frequently requested subjects like Philosophy! My teaching philosophy is a mix of formal training and personal methods. I earned Level II certification from the Collegiate Reading and Learning Association (CLRA) while tutoring for OSU, which taught me the methods needed to effectively relay information to students. As a philosophy student I also utilize the Socratic method while tutoring, which focuses on asking students questions in order to get them to reach their answers. Throughout...

I love getting to know new people and try my best to tailor sessions to my...

...That is the most important lesson that I teach. After getting an A.S. from SPSCC, I went on to major in biochemistry at the University of Washington, Seattle. At the end of my Junior year, my interest in math took over, and I decided to switch majors to mathematics. I earned a B.S. in Mathematics from UW in 2013. After that, I was awarded two scholarships through the Center for Sensorimotor Neural Engineering which allowed...

...and Learning Association. My favorite subjects to tutor are Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, and Physics, as I feel that they offer the student the best opportunity to witness real life applications of Mathematics. As a tutor, it is my goal to keep students engaged in learning. As such, instead of simply answering the questions that are posed to the student, I ask deeper questions and lead them to a fuller understanding of the core concepts. In my...

...always enjoyed helping people understand, and for I long time I considered becoming a teacher, though I eventually decided to spend my time learning the applied side of mathematics. I still, however, relish any opportunity to work with people, whether as a counselor, instructor, or colleague. I know I can be of value to anybody who wants to understand mathematics on a deeper level and I look forward to helping students achieve their goals.... Rather than...

...possible. I have since graduated from Skagit Valley College with an AA in Music and an AA in art, and from the University of Washington with a BS in Electrical Engineering. While tutoring at Skagit Valley College, I received an award for excellence in tutoring in recognition of my dedication to my students. I love tutoring, and I'm always happy to find opportunities to encourage and inspire others to believe in themselves and achieve beyond...

...CO, where I mentored students on multiple two-week backpacking trips. It is my belief that learning math is a perfect context in which to learn creative problem solving. In addition to working with students on complete content coverage, I frame problems as a series of open ended questions that lead to the correct answer and develop a rational understanding of the material. When not teaching I am an avid musician, carpenter, backpacker, and skier.

...level instructors would interact with the student on an individual basis (regularly and upon request), which taught me the value of interpersonal relationships in academia. I enjoy tutoring students who have an interest in mathematics or demonstrate a willingness to learn. I myself started very slowly in intermediate college math courses, but gradually the subject matter was known with practice, which eventually enabled me to appreciate math as an art. I see this work as...

...four years experience tutoring middle and high school age students, particularly in math and English, in the Los Angeles area. I am patient and understanding, and my goal is to foster a comfortable environment and mutual respect. I make sure that the students I work with know they are important and capable, because I have found that they are most willing to engage and put in effort when such a relationship exists between us.

...but I mainly like to focus on helping my students develop independent study skills that will support them through life. What this means is building up the analytical skills that they will need to prepare and study for assignments and tests when they're going to go to college. There's only so much one can do in teaching the content that we also need to teach our students how they can become their own teachers and...

...mathematical and scientific principles in the context of real-world problems, and I encourage critical thinking and problem solving whenever possible. My primary academic interest is string theory, which tries to combine Einstein's theory of gravity and general relativity with quantum mechanics, the physics of the subatomic realm. One of my advantages as a math tutor, in particular, is that I have first hand experience with many of the applications of mathematics, i.e. to Astronomy, Physics,...

...in math, literacy, science, and writing. I have also tutored middle school and high school students in several math and science disciplines through the National Society of High School Scholars. I earned a dual bachelor's degree in ecology and contemporary dance performance, while continuing to mentor and assist my peers. Although these fields of study may seem to lie on opposite and seemingly unrelated ends of the academic spectrum, I have found that they molded...

...graduated in June of 2012 from National Tsing Hua University, which is one of the best universities in Taiwan. Currently I am applying to the Applied Physics program for graduate school. I have experience tutoring visually impaired students in both math and physics aging from 11 to 16. Throughout the years, I have developed a style of bringing experiments into tutoring. I believe that combining real world with the textbook helps students understanding the concepts...

...about during the section, so it's good to see that he had more outside knowledge of how something could be used." These comments reflect my personal approach to teaching. When I am with a student, I overshoot the level of enthusiasm I express about the material. I am unafraid of being goofy. Keeping students entertained ensures that they pay close attention to the material, which is crucial for its absorption. I also admit mistakes, which...

...and eager students to succeed. I tailor lesson plans to different learning styles and abilities. With the extra attention I give, my students consistently tell me they have learned more than they ever thought possible for themselves. Many of my students once nervous about math or science went on to major in these subjects in college with great success. They just had to get over fears and mental blocks. I have flexible hours and diverse...
