...and French. I started my schooling at a small liberal arts school in Wisconsin at Lawrence University and will finish at the University of Missouri-Kansas City (two Wisconsin winters was enough for me!). I've tutored students from Elementary School all the way up through to undergraduates in algebra, geometry, reading, writing and French. My favorite to teach is reading, because it's a door to so many other cool things (like Sherlock Holmes stories!). I think...

...My favorite subjects to teach are Anatomy, Physiology, and Microbiology. I love talking about the amazing human body machine! Though not a chemist, I also enjoy teaching Chemistry. Over the course of many years I have learned that it is usually the math within chemistry that bogs students down. I have developed a sure fire way of breaking through that barrier in the classroom and would love to share that in private tutoring sessions! I...

...college that I realized this passion and strength were driving me towards education. Since then, I've enjoyed working with students of all ages and abilities to further their math skills.

I finished homework assignments quickly and accurately, and was frequently asked by my peers to help them with theirs. After performing well in Calculus II, the university offered me a position as a tutor for that class. During my two years as a Calculus II tutor, I deepened...

...individuals are able to finally understand a particularly difficult concept. With two years of experience as a tutor at the Math and Resource Center at UMKC, I have gained many skills that allow me to be confident that my students have effectively mastered what they are learning in the classroom and are able to apply it to real-life situations.

...spent several years as a Physics teaching assistant. My experience at the universities has included both teaching Physics in group (classroom and lab) settings and working with students individually on homework problems or test preparation. For the past few years, I have also tutored students independently, primarily focusing on Algebra/Algebra 2, Physics, and Chemistry. Students have often said that I am a very clear, patient, and thorough tutor. I believe it's important to let students...

...Austin, where I acquired bachelor’s degrees in both chemistry and classics. Because I am proficient in both the sciences and the humanities, and because classics is such a broad field, I am able to teach a wide variety of topics. Classics, which could be broadly defined as the study of ancient world, demands proficiency not only in Greek and Latin but also history, literary criticism, and of course persuasive writing. I can consequently teach subjects...
