...from Boston University. Over the past few years, I've had the opportunity to teach in diverse environments including both public and charter schools and art museums and galleries. Being a visual person myself, I find that learning can be a lot of fun when you are able to situate yourself in the setting of a certain subject matter. Want to know about ancient Egypt?

I hope to do this by providing them with very good understanding of basic concepts and show them how taking...

I am a student at the University of Kansas majoring in Political Science and minoring in French. I am qualified to tutor for many AP Courses (U.S. Government, U.S. History, and French Language) in addition to ACT and further language and English tutoring. I am not far removed from these courses and tests and am therefore able to help students uniquely as I remember being in there situations.

...my excitement to students. I also enjoy preparing students for test prep (ACT) and elementary and middle school-age students. My approach to teaching is to understand the student as an individual. I like to understand the student's strengths and weaknesses and work from there to expand their knowledge in a given subject. My goal is to push each of my students to venture beyond their limits and understand each concept, rather than learning the steps...

I have over eight years experience tutoring, mostly in math and science, but other subjects as well. I attempt to find analogous concepts from a student's other interests or daily experiences to make abstract concepts more understandable. I believe that generally, grasping a concept follows on from realizing it's not so foreign as we used to think.

...is the value I hold dearest. Rather than tutor for the sake of hours, I hope to spend my time and the time of my clients effectively. I aim to not only improve test scores, but to set students up so they may efficiently study without a tutor. I hope to not only have an impact on students during the few hours I see them, but to improve their study habits for a lifetime's impact.

I enjoy helping students reach their highest potential. My philosophy is that all people can learn and finding their intelligence is my goal in tutoring.

...materials science and engineering. I primarily tutor subjects in math and science because I love helping students break through obstacles to understanding tough concepts. I believe that sometimes all it takes to tackle a difficult problem is a fresh perspective, which is how I like to approach my tutoring sessions. I love to hike, I'm an avid board game player, and I'm currently teaching myself to play guitar - it's going pretty well, actually!

...but too difficult to understand. In this case, the first thing I do is send the problem to a friend and ask if they can help. Sometimes they can help, and sometimes they can't. At this point, I would wait just wait to go to class and hope that the teacher magically has the answers to that specific problem- a rare occurrence. It would be my honor and pleasure to be able to help you...

...in Lawrence, Kansas, pursuing the majors of Biology and Psychology. I love to help others learn new material in fun and diverse ways. Adapting to each individual's needs depending on their learning style is the key to overall success. My tutoring experiences in all subjects have been extremely rewarding.

Through 10 years of teaching at three different colleges, I know that great learning comes through individual advising sessions and conversations that allow students to address their concerns, develop their skills, and work on their goals.
