Award-Winning Chemistry Tutors in Bellevue, WA

...its just a matter of finding the style of learning that is most effective for them. What works or makes sense for one student will not necessarily work for the next student, and so it is essential as a tutor to be able to explain the same concept in a variety of different ways and to be able to determine when a student has fully grasped the concept. In my spare time, I enjoy spending...

...future, but I have always enjoyed teaching. I started tutoring during my junior year of high school, finding that I had an aptitude for analogies that helped students 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...

...deconstructs concepts in a way that students can personally relate to, and by using visual analogies, I demystify the math between the atoms while not reinforcing memorization like many instructors. Because of my success, my students often told me that I should be the teacher. So I decided to do just that and am now on the fast track to become a high school Chemistry teacher. After college, I worked at a pathology company preparing...

...natural world in an objective way. These experiences have led me to pursue a career in secondary education, where the big ideas of science are introduced. After having lived and studied on the east coast for the past decade, I am excited to have moved back to my home in the Pacific Northwest to pursue my interests in education here. The prospect of a career in education has appealed to me since I entered college....

I love the look a child gets in their eyes when they begin to understand a concept that has alluded them in the past. Whether teaching my class or working one on one with a student, seeing that success is what I strive for.... All students are capable of being successful. As a teacher, it's my job to identify the strategies and resources that will put each student I work with on the path to success.

...and were often afraid to say what they thought because of the fear of being wrong. As a tutor and mentor, my role is to create a comfortable learning environment where students focus on how wrong answers help them to arrive at the right answer. I always told my students that I am open to all answers and that no one is ever truly wrong. No one should feel that their contribution to a learning...

...years. I am very familiar with US and Comparative Government due to having worked as an outliner for the AP books. Teaching is a personal endeavor and a necessary passion in my particular field. On one hand, science is a small community and relies on personal, one-on-one apprenticeship in order to train the next generation of researchers and explorers. On the other hand, learning science (learning anything, in fact) is best done with context in...

...luxury of being surrounded by them while studying or working in various academic environments. Tutoring now provides me with the one-on-one teaching experience that I enjoy so much. My strong background in Chemistry and Biology and my passion for teaching allow me to find just the right way to explain even the most difficult of subjects. In my free time I enjoy getting out for a daily run, hiking in the mountains around Seattle, reading...

...to my teaching experience, I have tutored a number of students in the UK, adapting my tutoring to work well with a student's individual learning style. Since residing in Seattle, I have volunteered at the library and zoo, and I have helped at a homework club at the local YMCA dealing with a range of age groups and subjects, encouraging students to achieve their full potential I am currently staying at home with my two...

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.

...thing and should always be fostered. There is a great big world out that that needs to be explored. Always be seeking, improving, and wondering. I have taught middle school for 17 years and try to pass on my love of learning to each and everyone of my students. I believe all students can be successful learners, although they may learn best in a wide variety of ways. When a student gets it, I get...

...general biology, to genetics, from ecology, to biostatistics, I like it all. Science is amazing because it is so experimental and complex, but once understood truly fascinating and question-inducing. Math and analytical writing are a close second and third. Math, in my opinion, is great because (with a few exceptions) there are no if, buts, or maybes. Math is a dependable, rule-following subject, and that's why I like it. Though this may seem hard to...

...laude (with highest honors). Over the past year I held the role of Science Subject Specialist at the Seattle University Learning Assistance Programs. In this position, I served as the lead tutor of the science tutoring program and helped oversee the program. I fulfilled CRLA's International Tutor Training Program to become an Advanced Certified Tutor, Level II. I also worked at Seattle University's Math Lab for two years tutoring students in a range of math...

...tutor students in any subject, and I am happy to help with standardized test prep, study habits and time management, college applications, and much more. Science may not come naturally to some students, but I believe that enthusiasm and persistence are more important than natural ability. I hope to share my passion for science with younger learners. I recently started a part-time job at the Seattle Aquarium as a mentor and supervisor for high school...

...treatment at all, or are entirely unknown to doctors. My current goal is to aid biomedical researchers in their devising of novel medical technology in the area of stem cell and tissue regeneration. My future goal is to either pursue a Master's Degree and Ph.D in bioengineering, or to pursue medical school. Outside of school, I enjoy volunteering in medical outreach events, partaking in biomedical research, and tutoring students to help them succeed! My passion...

...the University of Washington. At UW, I was a Pre-Med student, so I am very familiar with Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and other sciences. I also have spent the past few summers tutoring students in Reading and Writing and am able to help with everything from college essays and writing assignments to skills for standardized tests. I'm happy to work with a range of ages and will do my best to help make sessions as useful...

...My most hated subject was mathematics. I just refused to sit there and mindlessly solve for "x" fifty times an evening. I did not see the point nor did I care. Naturally, I decided to join the Army. But after being in the service for a few months, I realized that I was not being challenged intellectually, and I was craving it! After being away from academics (and having several life-changing experiences overseas) I came...

...in Bioengineering. I have experience working with students as young as kindergarten to as experienced as undergraduates in college. I tutor reading, writing, science (physics, chemistry, biology), mathematics (all levels up to calculus), and MCAT preparation. My teaching style revolves around discussion of the material and doing practice problems to test understanding. I am very patient and don't get frustrated easily. Outside of academia, my favorite hobbies are swimming, playing badminton, cooking, and picking up...
