Award-Winning Calculus Tutors serving Lenexa, KS

...student finally understanding a difficult concept. My love for teaching and mentoring comes from seeing how ineffective teachers can make students not want to be engaged. Once I entered college, I began to see how effective teachers could make the difference for the students. This example made me want to teach later in life. I have experience working with children and teens from my previous job. This job entailed mentoring both current and former foster...

...passion. Teaching can take a bad day and turn it into a fantastic one. I joined the Air Force at 17 years old and completed a Physics major from the United States Air Force Academy. I was excited to serve my country and am very thankful I got that opportunity. What I learned most from it though was that it was not my passion and I separated from the Air Force to set out to...

...freshman at Northwestern University looking to major in Math and Computer Science. I got into tutoring during high school, as it was a requirement for being a part of my school's Math Honor Society. I enjoyed it far more than I expected and wanted to do more of it. While I can tutor on a variety of STEM topics, I enjoy tutoring with Math related subjects the most. I can help with anything from academic...

...students have the desire to learn new material, but sometimes they may need assistance in order to be more confident. I enjoy developing the relationships with the students I tutor and seeing their growth. I have over ten years experience teaching students at the high school level. I currently teach Algebra, Geometry, and AP Statistics. However, I have experience with all course up to Calc 3. My success rate is high and I pride myself...

...the database layer, business logic layer, and UI layers, with a wide range of technologies and purposes). I love to share what I've found. I share it in code-reviews with peers, I have shared with college co-ops as they were hired to help senior engineers with development tasks, and I would have a great passion in tutoring students here at Varsity Tutors. I have high flexibility and commitment and look forward to helping the next...

I understand how math and science can be a struggle, epecially in high school. I used to be that struggling student! But math, science, logic, computers, and programming are my passion and I am a degreed engineer. I have helped tutor and mentor high school and college students over the years and hopefully I can help you out too.

...unpaid fellow classmate. I approach tutoring as an opportunity for the student to come to the answer on their own with minimal guidance from me. My job is to simply watch the student work and if needed, lead them to the right answer. Ultimately, my goal is to help them see the bigger picture. I want every student to not only see the "how" of mathematics but the "why", as well. Outside of school and...

Hi, I'm Jeff. I recently graduated from Princeton University studying Operations Research and Financial Engineering with a minor in computer science. Over the course of my four years at Princeton, I gained a breadth of knowledge in the fields of statistics, probability, data science, programming, and optimization.

...for everyone and that is where my involvement in Student Senate comes in. I have an extensive background in math, science and the humanities from both university and high school. In the future, I plan to attend law school or a Master’s program in public policy or international relations. I discovered I enjoy tutoring while helping my younger brother with his homework and tutoring my friends for the ACT. Empowering people with knowledge is extremely...

...Johns (called johnnies) have a double major (philosophy and math) and a double minor (science and language). St Johns was one of the best experiences of my life. It was during my junior year at St Johns that I had my first experience tutoring. The mother of a 7th grader I'll call "Ricky" posted a notice in the student lounge looking for a tutor for her son. I answered the ad and began tutoring Ricky...

...Calculus 2 (Differentiation, Integration, etc.) - an organization that I've been a part of from October of 2019 to July of 2023. I have participated within both small and large organizations in leadership and otherwise (Marching Bands, Jazz Bands, Student Organizations and others), developing my ability to communicate and work with as many personalities as possible to pursue a common goal. "If there's a will, there's a way" is one of my personal mantras, and...

...for over 30 years at the high school level and now the community college level. In those years, I have learned a lot about student learning. Obviously, not every student learns the same way. I try to present topics from different points of view with different methods of solving them whenever possible. I want math to be as painless as possible for students. Since I have taught for so long, I can anticipate some of...

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.

...Ph.D.). My calling as an educator has been to promote life-long learning in areas of life that assist the learner in rising to new heights of understanding, productivity, and healthy relationships. Some seeming deviations from this calling have been becoming a pilot, playing a lot of golf, and running international schools in South America for a missionary organization. I am a relational teacher and leader, warmly personal, and a strong adherent to principle with clear...

Make every effort to make yourself improved, a student need not be ashamed!... Keep it simple student!... I will do an interview. I will attempt to understand how the student is thinking -- in detail or short and sweet!... Don't be lazy! A student is one who studies. If you can eat, drink, and breath daily, then why can't you study daily. Apply yourself.... Take a break from studying. Sunday through Thursday study, and Friday and...

I love making math easy for people!

...recent Chemical Engineering graduate with a minor in economics from the University of Oklahoma living in Overland Park, Kansas. I have a passion for teaching college, high school, and middle schoolers math from Algebra to College Calculus, chemistry, and physics. In high school I took a variety of AP Tests: AP Chemistry-5, AP Physics 1-4, AP Calculus AB-5 AP US History-4, AP English Composition-4. I hope we are a great fit, and I can't wait...

...how subjects can be applied to real life. Students miss out on many wonderful realizations in their daily lives because they don't understand how chemistry helped create computers, or the historical context that has created the current political climate. Tutoring sessions with me are structured much differently than a traditional class. I don't lecture; Learning with me is a conversation in which we will talk through a concept together, and then the student proves their understanding...
