Olivia Pryor-Private Tutor

My teaching philosophy centers on individualized instruction. Rather than assuming a one-size-fits-all approach, I tailor sessions to meet your student’s learning style and needs. I respond to learning challenges with flexibility, creativity, and positivity. To achieve best results, I engage your student in the learning process, break complex concepts into simpler parts, and target instruction to build specific skills.
I’m a Washington State Certified educator with over ten years of experience teaching and tutoring students of all ages. I’ve taught in both alternative and traditional schools, and have tutored a wide range of learners—from homeless youth to gifted students at top performing schools. I earned my B.A. in English Literature and Washington State Teaching Certificate for Secondary Education from Seattle Pacific University in 2009. Currently I'm pursuing a Masters in Cli ... read more

PhD Physics, able to tutor in science, math, engineering

I follow the method of G. Polya in his classic work "How to Solve It". By asking the right questions, one can help the student define his problem, form a plan for the solution, carry out the plan, and examine the result. I also try to work as many difficult problems from the student's text as time permits, in order to show that all problems have a solution, and the student can build confidence in attacking any problem. I try to present the material in as many ways as needed, so that I can match the subject to the student's style of learning.
I was a senior scientist - engineer for 37 years. I retired to care for my comatose wife at home, and she died a few months later. This situation has left me open to new directions. My teaching experience has been 3 years as a graduate teaching assistant, and 2 years as a tutor to friends and family in science and mathematics. My goal is ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with students to set and accomplish learning goals. I look for ways to make subject matter relevant to each individual by looking for ways it relates to their own life. I enjoy helping each student discover the overarching themes and conquer the details to create a cohesive understanding of subject matter. As an educator, I look to inspire the spirit of discovery and wonder in my students that I have found in studying sciences.
I have experience working with students of all ages. I've taught elementary classes, college level labs and adult specific classes. I have always been driven to do well in my studies and have found success helping others achieve their academic goals. Science is so fun and I love helping others understand the complexities of how it all works and fits together.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a graduate of Cetral Washington University, with a BA in Elementary Education and a Minor in Reading. Before enrolling at the university and during my time there, I worked with elementary school children, helping them with Reading, Writing and Math skills. I have a special interest in Reading in Writing and enjoy helping students"turn on the Lights" on these skills. I have 10+ plus years teaching as a certified teacher and some experience as an undergraduate. I have worked in diverse school distrcict with many family of various races and economical situations.
I believe students learn best in a situation they feel safe in. Not all students learn at the same pace, learning style, or level. I take these things into consideration as I am planning lessons. I usually try a varity of ways to get the lesson across, through group teaching, buddy system, one-on-one, worlshops, s ... read more

I believe that instilling the confidence to learn is the key to effective instruction. Students need confidence not only in their instructor’s mastery of the subject matter, but also in their own ability to gain their own such master. This is not to suggest that rigor should not be applied, but rather that a student must have an emotional engagement with the learning process and a sense of their own progress, however minimal it might seem at a particular time. Frustration is the primary obstacle to successful learning and overcoming it is the instructor’s chief task.
From 2005 to 2008 I worked as a teacher and tutor for a Seattle-based test preparation firm. I taught classes for the SAT and GRE and tutored the SAT, GRE, and ACT. I believe I met and exceeded the high standards set by this organization. In 2008 I worked as a regional field director for the Obama campaign in several s ... read more

I am currently a paid tutor at Montlake Elementary School, assisting with language arts and math - at all levels.

More About This Tutor...

I believe that every child is capable of learning, and once they see how a subject is relevant to their life and goals, they usually want to learn all they can about it. I try to make academic subjects relevant by introducing real-life applications. Once a student is interested in learning, we can move on to study strategies tailored to each child's individual learning style, and develop a plan whereby the student can progress on his or her own time. At that point, tutoring sessions can focus on working through difficult problems and identifying areas where I can provide extra help and expertise.
As a child, I wasn't very interested in science, math, or the outdoors. It took an inspiring high school teacher who challenged me with interesting projects to show me how fascinating biology and ecology were. I strive to be that kind of teacher- not just to show my students how to get t ... read more

My first experience instructing young people took place while I was in college, coaching elementary girl’s basketball. This job, which turned out to be amazing and inspiring encouraged me to find a career that would incorporate helping others and furthering my own learning experience. Today, I study secondary education so that I can earn my Master’s degree and go on to teach young people. I spend time in the classroom at the local high school assisting students with their work, and also just interacting with them and showing them that I care. I love the fact that these young people are willing to open up to me and allow me help them in their learning journey.
Teaching is about relationships, and the bonds that they build that provide trust. I believe that if a student doesn’t trust my intentions and know that I am working towards helping them in a truly genuine manner, they cannot ... read more

I believe that every student can learn, given the right approach. Sometimes the "right approach" requires explaining the concept in several different ways, or includes a more interactive process with experimentation or discussion. I try to work with each student to find the correct approach. In addition, I believe that one of the most important parts of tutoring is giving the student confidence in their own abilities, and I try to provide as much encouragement as possible.
I graduated in May 2009 with a BS in Engineering from Franklin W. Olin College of Engineering, a prestigious technical school in Needham, Massachusetts. Aside from my engineering coursework, I completed an arts and humanities concentration and capstone in Political Science, focusing on third world development and ethno-political conflict. I served as a course assistant for math and science courses throughout m ... read more

More About This Tutor...

In college I volunteer tutored at the Crawford Country READ center to a pupil struggling with reading comprehension, writing and mathematics. In addition to this, during my senior year at Allegheny College I was a teaching assistant for a Research Design and Statistics I and II course. Furthermore, I am currently living in Pittsburgh as a private tutor. As a recent college graduate I can understand the difficulties some students may face in grasping course material and feel capable of connecting and conveying information in an effective way.
In the past I have worked with students both one and one and within a group setting, and feel comfortable adapting to any particular group or individual's needs. I believe effective teachers must compose a delicate balance of meticulous discipline and natural concern. The best teachers and professors of my academic career were not only intellig ... read more

Every student has different needs and learning styles, and I enjoy the challenge of finding the right approach for each one.

Being a confident, approachable, and well-mannered, I am very comfortable working with students and their parents one-on-one in their homes or other private settings. I enjoy communicating with parents and caregivers to involve them in support of their students’ learning. I take special joy in encouraging bright students who have the skills to succeed, but need help realizing and organizing those skills. While I have unabashedly high standards, nothing pleases me more than to reward good effort. Most importantly, I have a passion for knowledge and delight in sharing my enthusiasm with other students.
From early grade school through high school and college, classmates recognized my scholastic aptitude and frequently consulted me for informal tutoring, while teachers recruited me for more formal assignments tutoring remedial classmates. In high school and college, I specifically tut ... read more
