Award-Winning ISEE Tutors in Kansas City, MO

...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 teaching...

...Chemistry. Students have often said that I am a very clear, patient, and thorough tutor. I believe it's important to let students do as much of the work independently as possible so that they stay involved in the learning process, and I also find it valuable to relate previous knowledge to new material. But most of all, I just really enjoy the subjects I teach and love sharing them with others! Tutoring is very fulfilling...

...a self-programmed public relations degree. Over the years I have found myself conducting classes for preschoolers, corporate executives, and every skill level in between. But I have found the tutoring model of one-to-one instruction brings quicker results. I enjoy helping students achieve those "ah ha" moments when a concept clicks. Often that moment comes by relating a troubling concept to something the student enjoys. My diverse interests enable me to build rapport and relate assignments...

...My favorite to teach is reading, because it's a door to so many other cool things (like Sherlock Holmes stories!). I think all good tutoring experiences are built on a trusting, respectful relationship, so I really try to get to know my students. Tutoring is more fun for everyone involved if we can bring in some of our interests: one thing I learned from a former student is that ice skating can be a great...

...Tutors in August of 2014, I worked in a K-8 school as an intervention math teacher. There, I tutored elementary- and middle-school students in math in small groups. Working in that setting taught me more about how to explain abstract concepts simply and creatively, and about how to use quizzes and evaluations to track student progress. During college, I helped my peers learn French both individually and in small groups; and most recently, I worked...

...working with students, I am always conscious of their different learning styles and rates. Furthermore, feedback from students has been vital to my process of growth as an educator. I learn from them just as much as they learn from me. In my free time, I enjoy reading, writing, and traveling; I also volunteer with the UMKC Women's Center and will be interning with MOCSA (Metropolitan Organization to Counter Sexual Assault) next semester as a...

...the process can easily be derailed by anxiety, missing previous information, poor study habits, or a psychological condition. I've worked with students with each of these problems (and more) and seen the vast majority improve their performance, which gives them confidence, which improves their performance even more. It’s incredibly rewarding to be a positive example for students and watching their confidence grow until they forget what it was they were so worried about in the...

...also a volunteer for the A+ program here in Missouri where I spent time tutoring students at local elementary schools on various subjects. As a student who struggled with motivation in school through much of my early childhood, I can relate to many students and help connect with them and inspire them to live up to their academic potential. In my spare time I like to exercise, read, spend time with family, and play Super...

...KS. I tutor reading, writing, math, homework support, & organizational skills. I've had extensive training in elementary literacy such as word decoding, comprehension strategies, fluency, & writing instruction. My favorite subject to tutor is math because I really enjoy problem solving. Outside of education, I enjoy spending time with my wife & two dogs, Bailey & Maddy, traveling, working out, & watching movies. I am the right tutor for your child because I believe that...

...currently work with the Metropolitan Community College system teaching Math, Circuits and associated subjects. My main subject is Math. I have found that if I help people get a good foundation in math they are much better at it than they ever thought they were. Tutoring should be interactive, a team effort. Let me help you gain a foundation and confidence and we will both see you soar. I love animals and that is probably...
