...always enjoyed teaching. During college, I would tutor my friends in Calculus and Organic Chemistry, both to help them prepare for exams and to master the material myself.

I also have a blast editing essays, so make sure to use all of these services to their fullest potential!

...tutoring session has to be focused around knowledge AND habit retention. Not only should the student learn the content, they should also learn how to continue delving into the subject and develop strong study/homework habits specific to the subject. Each subject has to be approached in a unique fashion to tailor the session to the needs of the student. Outside of school, I enjoy watching sports (of course I'm a little partial to the Jayhawks,...

...just begun my 3rd year of study at the UMKC School of Medicine. I love tutoring high school students, and have been doing formal tutoring since 2013.

Pushing students to understand why and how something works on their own significantly improves long term recall, instead of simply feeding them formulae and rules for them to regurgitate on an examination. As a 23 year old, I...

...feeling I get when a student understands a concept they previously struggled with is priceless. I have tutored math and reading at the Boys and Girls club for five years in the past, and I also tutored Algebra 1 for a year when I was in high school.

...moments when students feel accomplished in writing, I feel like the world becomes a little bit better somehow. My approach to tutoring students is to make education less of a chore or a burden and more of an opportunity for enrichment.
