Henry: Olathe English tutor
Certified English Tutor in Olathe, KS
I love standardized tests. It might sound weird, but they're usually straightforward, you can sit with them for hours, and, most importantly, you CAN get better at them through practice. That's what I hope to help you do as you prepare for the LSAT, SAT, ACT or any other subject. I also have a blast editing essays, so make sure to use all of these services to their fullest potential!

...students how to ask their own questions as well. I believe in giving my students resources that help them continue learning after tutoring is finished and throughout their lives. In addition, using my knowledge of science, math, the 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...

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, Royals, and chiefs), reading, video games, and also trying to work in some volunteer work in the local...

Maggie: Olathe English tutor
Certified English Tutor in Olathe, KS
...My approach to tutoring students is to make education less of a chore or a burden and more of an opportunity for enrichment. Without proper and fun education in our lives, we would not only be constantly reliant on others to take care of us, but life would also be extremely boring. In my spare time, I enjoy my family. I have an equally (if not more so!) nerdy husband of 14 years, and together...

I enjoy teaching all subjects, but I particularly enjoy test prep and math because I think those are the subjects where I can see students learning not only concepts, but also problem solving strategies.

...favorite subject to tutor, as the progress has tangible results: a few points more on a standardized test that translates into more scholarships and better chances for admission into more schools. Tutoring for me is a transfer of knowledge that the typical classroom of one teacher to twenty or so students doesn't allow--it's more personal. By use of whiteboards, practice problems, constant repetition, and positive encouragement, students start to understand the problems themselves and are...
