Award-Winning Latin Tutors in Kansas City, MO

...the high school or college level) and organic chemistry, both of which were always personal favorites. Even more importantly, in my pursuit of the sciences and humanities I have not just mastered two different types of content; rather, I’ve mastered two different ways of thinking. Because I understand both the way a strong humanities student might think and the way a strong science student might think, I’m able to ‘translate’ for students who are strong...

...am positive, and enjoy helping others understand "why" and "what", and teach them an enjoyment of learning even if they dont like the subject. I foster a fun and creative learning environment and meet your/your students individual needs. My experience includes classical education, private education, adult education, parent and student education, middle school students, college prep, college level English courses, and homeschooling my own children. I enjoy outdoor life: especially the hanging in my hammock...

I'm a recent graduate of Kansas State University with a degree in Life Sciences. I am able to help students with many subjects but I feel best when teaching life sciences (obviously), as well as history and Latin. In my free time I enjoy reading, playing video games, learning new things, and watching and talking about films, TV, etc. I look forward to helping people succeed.

...literature and culture are interwoven and how they affect those around them. I get really excited about learning/re-discovering things and subsequently about teaching those things to my students. I believe that education is the best way to expand not only your mind, but to improve your situation and quality of life. When I'm not teaching, I love to read, make jewelry, travel, watch Doctor Who and play with my cat, Oedipus. I am also just...

While I am not a professional woodworker, I am comfortable with the use of many tools and have made several items that I am proud of.

...Arabic. During my time at the University of Kansas, I tutored professionally for over three years for individual classes as well as standardized test preparation. I am able to tutor a wide variety of subjects; however, my passion lies in languages and history. In my experience tutoring non-English speakers, I have learned how to solidify short-term knowledge to the long term and apply this not only to languages, but many other subjects, as well. I...

...goal was (and still is) to earn a teaching certificate, but that is still a ways off. What else could I do? An idea hit me. Just because I am not a student anymore, however, does not mean I can't still dedicate myself to learning. There is no better way to do that than to help others learn too, and that is, most of all, what I want to do. I hope you, too, will...

...on Medieval British history. While in College, I taught a group of 9th grade students at a local synagogue. My class focused on the role of women in some of the most pivotal stories in the bible. This experience gave me first hand experience in tailoring subjects to the learning styles of my students and also taught me how to bring subjects, often viewed as boring, to life for them. I really enjoy working with...

Hi, I'm Emma! I'm a rising senior Classics major at Carleton College in Northfield, MN. I study Latin, Ancient Greek, and the histories associated with the two languages. Outside of class, I'm an RA, and I spend 6-8 hours a week tutoring and teaching college access courses in a nearby high school. In the future, I hope to teach high school Latin!

...practice of my faith. My favorite subject to tutor is English. My "liberal arts" education has convinced me that learning to communicate effectively precedes learning all other skills. However, besides English and Reading, I also like to tutor for Mathematics (particularly Algebra and Geometry and anything new building towards them) and Latin, which I have studied for five years. I also offer ACT, PSAT, and Advanced Placement (AP) Test Prep. I'm a patient fellow and...

...scored 168 on the LSAT and graduated in the top ten percent of my law school class. My teaching experience includes two years' teaching Latin and Myth at the college level and two years' private tutoring of subjects ranging from the LSAT and GRE to languages such as Latin and Greek. My true love is language, and I would gladly spend all my time doing nothing but analyzing grammar if I could!

...arts, and the humanities, I make connections between different subjects to help my students see how what we're working on isn't so strange after all! Before beginning to work with Varsity 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,...

I am a high school English teacher, currently working primarily with 10th grade students. I have previously worked at middle and elementary schools as well. I graduated from the University of Chicago in 2016 with a B.A. in English and Theatre. I then got my M.S.Ed from Northwestern.

...middle schoolers to doctoral candidates. I am also a junior high Latin teacher at St. Norbert School. While I love helping students with any language-related subject (in fact, I truly enjoy analyzing English grammar!), I am most passionate about teaching Latin. I find it extremely gratifying when my students realize that a so-called "dead" language can actually be relevant to their lives! When tutoring Latin, I like to focus on using various strategies to help...

...believe in the value of classical study and I am excited to help other Latin students work through the unique challenges of this language.
