Award-Winning ACT Reading Tutors in St. Charles, MO

I am a storyteller by nature, and I believe teaching--regardless of the subject-- is storytelling at the core. Instead of tales of fantasy and fiction, however, these are stories about how the world works. Students like working with me because of my ability to communicate information in a way that they can understand (i.e. I tell the story they want to hear). I enjoy swimming, being outdoors, and pets.

...from ACT test prep to learning how to read. I'm in Saint Louis as a Coro Fellow in Public Affairs and am hoping to tutor in my spare time.

...critical points so as not to overwhelm the student. I enjoy using mnemonics and wordplay to help ease the burden of memorization that is so often affiliated with biology and I understand any frustration a student may have with the subject.

...to be more involved in my neighborhood and community. I'm a naturally curious person who loves learning and truly values a sense of humor. I'm passionate about public affairs, community, and social justice. Self-confidence and empowerment are critical and often underestimated keys to learning. When I tutor a student, I also want to work with them to identify, appreciate, and build on their strengths, as well as feel empowered to ask questions and be curious....

As a tutor, I believe that each student is a unique individual with their own preferences which must be used to help the student grasp the material in whatever way is easiest for them.

Overall, I seek to help students challenge themselves, become self-motivated and satisfy the thirst for knowledge that...

Hi! I'm Naeem and I'm an engineering student at Wash U. My main academic interests are math and chemistry. I want to tutor because I'll be able to help other people understand some really cool concepts within these subjects. I know the satisfaction that comes when you finally master something you've been working hard for and I want to be involved with helping others get to that point. ... My teaching philosophy largely consists of relating...

...from Baylor University. I also taught chemistry for five years at Boise State University. All my standardized test scores are from my first time taking the test with very little preparation. I actually enjoy taking tests (weird I know). I am very skilled at helping others to learn the topics presented, improve their test-taking strategies, and improve their score. You must "think like the test writers" and be prepared for every twist and turn they...

My guilty pleasure is watching anything on TLC or Bravo, and I will stop at nothing to...

...a teacher in Creighton's "Philosophy for Children" program, has helped me to understand that teaching, one-on-one or in a classroom setting, is something that I'm passionate about. I believe that dialogue between mentor and pupil, much in the style of Plato's works, is the most effective way of imparting knowledge. Despite how overbearing or intimidating that might sound, I also think that light, informal settings are the best for tutoring. In my free time I...

In my time outside the classroom, I like to garden, read fantasy and science fiction, and bike...

I became a teacher to positively influence the world and help inspire others to be the best they can be. I view education as a holistic experience. I love my content area and care deeply about it.

...where I assisted students with English, Math, and Reading. Through Kumon I learned the skills necessary to be an effective tutor: patience and an ability to instill a deeper passion of the material that is relatable to the learner.

...I would have succeeded in any of my introductory science classes. I want to help students who have difficulty learning in a traditional lecture setting by creating problems, critical-thinking strategies, and hands-on learning experiences that are relevant to the student and the material at hand.
