- Tacoma , Washington ( 98445 )
- 10 miles
I've tutored and helped people in the professional environment with different issues including the fundamentals of development to the coding and testing aspects of software development and engineering. I love everything about tutoring because it's exciting to see people get the concepts, and understand what things mean whether it's concrete like C pointers, or more abstract like software design with UML. In addition to the rewarding aspect of seeing other people succeed, I learn during the ... Read more

History, Writing, Grammar & Especially Paper Skills!

- Tacoma , Washington ( 98404 )
- 20 miles
I have always been a quick learner and lover of academia. I'm one of those rare people who loves writing papers and wishes she could stay in school forever. Having a poor memory has only taught me to enhance my writing and research skills so that I can show my abilities on paper. In my undergraduate studies, I double majored in Anthropology (B.S.) and History (A.B.), and minored in Classics. My specialized senior paper topic approved by the department was on Egyptian end of times literatur... Read more

I am a knowledgeable, personable, and enthusiastic educator in the Math and Physics fields. While tutoring I employ humor as a tool to engage my students in the material. My goal is to impart my passion for math and science onto my students. However, I am quick to adjust my strategies to meet my individual student's needs. My teaching and tutoring experience, as discussed shortly, is mostly with college students so I prefer working with adults and older high school students. While attainin... Read more
Jonathan
Math, Science, and English
- $40 / h
- Tacoma , Washington ( 98405 )
- 3 miles
I have a passion for math and science, but even the greatest breakthrough in science is worthless without clear, engaging writing to convey the information to the world at large. I am pursuing a mechanical engineering degree, though I'm cross-training in computer programing (because it's useful in our increasingly interconnected world) and writing (because eloquence in presentation is an oft-neglected attribute.) I specialize in math, going up to Algebra II and trigonometry, and English, esp... Read more

I have loved teaching math and science my whole life. When my wife went back to college for her Bachelor of Science, I went with her and we took biology, including anatomy and physiology together. I love to integrate the learning materials with real life experience and problem solving such as how to build low cost housing, make a working robot or even repair a computer. All of the jobs that pay a living wage today require math and it does not have to be dry. I am a retired teacher with two... Read more
Jordan
University of Michigan Trained Spanish Tutor
- $55 / h
- Tacoma , Washington ( 98405 )
- 20 miles
I attended the University of Michigan, and I was able to learn fluent Spanish in under 12 months along with concurrent language immersion in Spain, Cuba and Argentina. There is no substitute for cultural language immersion whether in a Spanish institute of language or by travel/study abroad. During my tutoring session there will be little to no English spoken so as to be fully immersed in the Spanish language. This is a form of immersion for educational purposes, although not a substitute ... Read more
