Award-Winning ACT Writing Tutors serving St. Charles, MO

...Louis University in 2015 with Bachelor of Science degrees in Finance and Economics. I have been tutoring for about 6 years in various subjects such as English, Math, Social Studies, and Spanish. While our tutoring time is important, there time a student spends after our sessions is equally as crucial. That is why I work with students to create comprehensive study plans so that they can continue to develop their skills on their own time.

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.

...and spending time outside. I tutor people of all ages in a variety of subjects, including chemistry, AP Chemistry, psychology, reading & writing (including essay writing/editing), and ACT Prep.

I believe in an individualized approach to tutoring that caters to each student's strengths and weaknesses. It is important to identify what learning...

...first-hand how much it can help a student. When I was in high school, I took the ACT my first time, and did decently, nothing special. However, after some tutoring by my English teacher at the time, I improved my score greatly and was very thankful to have the mentor that I did. This experience showed me the potential value of a good teacher, and is what inspired me to be a tutor now.... I would...

...both a B.A. degree and M. A. degree in language arts from SIU-Edwardsville, Illinois. For several years I continued academic studies at St. Louis University in St. Louis, Missouri, where I pursued a doctorate degree in English and American literature.

Some...

...economic analyst. While a student, I tutored underprivileged teenagers in a wide range of subjects. During this time, many of the other tutors came to me for help and dubbed me "the math guy." I was in high school not too long ago and understand the pressures of having a high GPA and impressive ACT scores, so I understand what many of you are going through. I look forward to helping you learn and hope...

I am currently a junior at Brown University pursuing a double major in Biology and Economics.

...they best learn, and how they individually understand concepts best so they can replicate this learning without my guidance. These skills are what makes a child efficient on a standardized test without being stressed, and that is what I believe I tutor best. I want to help my students reach their full potentials and become confident learners as much as I can, so any help from their parents or suggestions from teachers would be more...

Currently, I serve as a College Adviser with the Washington University chapter of the College Advising Corps. This position has allowed me to facilitate ACT workshops along with private tutoring. To grow academically, I believe that students must be confident and knowledgable. I...

...ACT Reading, and Common Core tests. In schools where students had never passed AP scores, over 45 of my students scored 3s, 4s, and 5s on the AP US History, AP English Language, and AP US Government exams. With the right motivation, I believe that all students can achieve excellence in all subject areas. All students can thrive with individual attention and instruction, and that is why I'm thrilled to be a part of Varsity...

...a lot of time outdoors when I get the chance. I have also always had a knack for tutoring students which is why in undergrad at my university I was a part of a program called Collegiate Honors Preparatory Program.

We have seen significant improvements in the scores of these...

...the help of talented and invested tutors I was able to get back onto an educational track that eventually led me to receive my BA in English from the University of Southern California, and my MFA in Poetry from Washington University of St. Louis, where I also taught undergraduate poetry workshops for two years. As someone who benefited enormously from tutoring, I think it's important to pay that benefit forward, and I spent two years...

I continued to volunteer tutor through high school, did two years of paid tutoring while studying English Literature as an undergrad at Harvard College, and then spent a year in Japan teaching English as a second language...

...They've inspired me to begin tutoring others to pass on this influence. I've quickly realized that helping others understand something better is one of the best feelings ever and it is shared between the giver and receiver. Currently, I'm an undergraduate student at Washington University in St. Louis with a major in geophysics and a minor in astrophysics. I've tutored elementary school children in basic math, reading, and music. Along with this I've naturally picked...

In fact, there are many teachers in my family, on both sides, so I come to education quite naturally.
