Award-Winning Calculus Tutors in Kansas City, MO

I have a Mathematics undergraduate degree at KU after taking classes for fun. While at KU, I taught classes in calculus and pre-calc as an Assistant Instructor (business graduate school) and as a TA (undergraduate). I also tutored friends on the side. I enjoy teaching and tutoring. I'm also very patient. I have a business background, including banking, accounting, and human resources. This helps me make math relevant. In my spare time, I enjoy exercising,...

...to my classmates in school. I don't think that science and math has to be as intimidating or scary as the world makes it out to be. Often times if we don't understand something, it's simply because it hasn't been explained to us in a way that caters to our strengths. I love math and the predictive nature of numbers. If I'm not in school you can probably find me in front of the box...

...in a neuro-psychiatry laboratory before starting medical school in Kansas City. Throughout my lengthy education I have taken several courses on each of the subject that I tutor and have taken quite a few standardized exams. This has allowed me not only to master the information, but also to experience a variety of teaching styles. I know first hand how important it is to tailor teaching towards an individual and always work to make the...

...from preschool children getting a head-start on phonics to postdoctoral students who need to navigate SPSS for their theses. I began tutoring as the scholarship chair for my fraternity in undergraduate, before getting a student job in graduate school teaching Math, English as a Second Language (ESL) and Science to student athletes at ESU. After falling in love with tutoring, I began taking clients both privately and through agencies like Varsity Tutors, and have been...

...at a private company, where I worked during my senior year of high school. While at Rockhurst, I worked in the Learning Center for two years as a tutor and as a Supplemental Instructor for one year. In addition, I had the opportunity to shadow a local high school math teacher. At SLU, I worked in their Tutoring Center for one semester and during my second semester I taught a section of College Algebra. I...

My love for tutoring come from having always been the top of my classes and helping family and friends with different subject areas so they can not only improve their grades, but also gain more confidence in regard to the subject in hand. I am creative about approaching a student, determine his/her weakness that causes his/her low grade or lack of confidence and provide him/her with tools or techniques that help overcome the weakness and...

...taught Intermediate Algebra, College Algebra, & Contemporary Math. While I tutor many different math courses, my favorite subject to tutor and teach is Algebra because it is the basis for so many other math classes. I know that math is difficult for many people, and I try my hardest to find a teaching style that will make the material easy to understand. I want my students to succeed in their math courses, and if I...

...school I would regularly be tutoring other students. I also spent hours and hours tutoring others over the Internet. For me teaching is an adventure. Everyone has different perspectives, and when you are teaching you have to be able to both provide a new perspective and to understand (so as to enlarge) someone else's perspective. In my non-teaching time, I am interested in Physics and Mathematics and working out practical problems from plumbing to electronics....

...a part of the learning process for others. I have a degree in Math and a Minor in Statistics and am a strong communicator. I've tutored at the College and High School level and excel in breaking down difficult concepts into understandable pieces. I love working with people towards an academic goal. I have served as a Pre-Calculus and Trigonometry tutor for first year university students as well as a tutor for Spanish speaking students....

...and one-on-one. I've also served as a teaching assistant for 3 years, carrying out many different classroom duties for professors including grading homework, holding office hours, proctoring exams. I've grown very fond of tutoring calculus 1, 2, sophomore level linear algebra, and differential equations. The "true power" of applied mathematics shines brightest in these subjects, and it excites me when I can share this with my students and give them that "ah ha! that's what...
