Katie
Math Tutor, Former HS Math Teacher, 10+ years tutoring experience
I have always enjoyed helping others learn. I started tutoring and teaching when I was in high school, and I've never looked back! I attended the University of Notre Dame and graduated in 2011 with a 3.5 GPA and a double major in Mathematics and International Peace Studies. After graduation, I taught upper-level math courses at a high school. (My favorite was AP Calculus!) I realized my passion was working one-on-one with students though, so I left teaching to become a full-time private tutor... Read more

High school Math and Science Tutor

I guide them through the material rather than doing it for them. I've been a homework helper volunteer at the Beaverton Library for the past year and have co... Read more
