About

Hi there! My name is Garrett Watson, and I am a 3rd-year student at UC Berkeley studying History and Education.

I have multiple years of experience working in and out of classrooms teaching students K-12. I pride myself on my ability to communicate effectively and break down concepts into understandable pieces. I have tutored for English, History, Math, and Science in Elementary and Middle schools, have tutored several AP English and Social Studies courses in High School. I am also currently teaching sailing classes to ages 8 and above.

My specialties are Reading, Writing, Literature, and Social Studies. I am comfortable tutoring on these up through any grade level (excluding post-graduate work). I can also help with Math and Science, though only through 8th grade.

I always offer a no-charge first meeting so that we can set goals and make sure that it's a good fit. My standard rate after the first meeting is $20 an hour.

Mr. Garrett helped my 5th graders become better readers and quickly connected with the students. He consistently encouraged students to do their best.

Garrett was an invaluable tutor for my AP US History class. He consistently strove to enhance my understanding by approaching our sessions using different learning styles to see which one stuck with me. Garrett took the time to identify the areas where I was struggling and was very patient while explaining complicated concepts to make sure they stuck! He improved my grade from a B+ to an A which significantly improved my GPA and indicated growth to colleges which was very helpful when being admitted. Without Garretts help, I wouldnt have the problem-solving skills I still use today in my college history courses!

Garrett was an extremely patient tutor who encouraged critical thinking and helped me build confidence and independence. He connects with students on a personal level and keeps them following along without the feeling of being talked down to.

He is smart, patient, and able to explain things in different ways until I understand. He spends extra time on things I struggle with and doesn’t get impatient to move ahead. Going at my pace is huge for me.
