Award-Winning Organic Chemistry Tutors in Shawnee Mission, KS

...then, I've been working as a chemist, teacher, and tutor. I'm currently working on a Masters Degree in Teaching. My favorite thing about teaching is helping students learn how awesome science is. Everything we interact with everyday is made possible because of it. I fully believe that anyone can become great at math or science. I am also an accomplished amatuer musician. I play piano and low brass instruments. I've played all over the world,...

...to tutor these subjects. Outside of academics, I am passionate about global health and helping underserved communities. I spent a summer working in Kisumu, Kenya on a malnutrition project and I plan to work in Nicaragua on a project focused on bringing clean water to underserved communities in the future. In my free time, I love playing and/or watching basketball or soccer, hiking, camping and spending time outdoors in general. I also enjoy watching movies...

...and Biochemistry. I could be that nerd that they base TV characters on, though I have excellent communication skills. Teaching has always come easily to me, and my students claim to learn well from my flexible teaching styles. I can effectively relate the material to students' lives so they can understand it in their own terms. If the student doesn't reach the answer on his own, then it won't be meaningful or committed to memory....

...a Neurology Resident at Kansas University Medical Center. I am ready to tutor a number of subjects, but I would like to help students with MCAT or GRE test preparation. I favor the Sciences but I would be happy to tutor in any subject. I was a TA in college and taught other learners in medical school and residency. In my free time I like to ride, exercise, play with my dogs and explore Kansas...

...BS in Chemistry, emphasis in biochemistry. In my final semester of college, I tutored chemistry online, and I can honestly say it was the most enjoyable job I've ever had. I am a scientist, so I mainly tutor chemistry, but I am also an excellent essay writer, editor, and test taker. As a result I am well equipped to tutor chemistry, physics, biology, math, essay writing, report writing, editing, and ACT Prep. I love seeing...

...State University where I worked extensively with first generation and low income college students. I have tutored a variety of sciences, but I thoroughly enjoy helping students in the subjects of Biology, Physiology, Chemistry, and Psychology. It is my experience that students that struggle to understand what they are learning have a difficult time visualizing the information and relating it to what they already know. My goal as a tutor is to make things fun...

Biology, chemistry, and related electives are tough courses that demand rigorous study. As a tutor and soon to be medical student, I am passionate about helping students master these subjects. I know firsthand how difficult these classes can be and how important success is for acceptance into a professional school. My goal is to facilitate your learning in the most effective way possible by empowering you to be successful.... First, I like to find out what the student's academic goals are and what is his/her preferred learning style. Next, I tailor our tutoring sessions to most efficiently achieve those goals. Finally, I check learning progress by having the student teach the subject back to me.

...at the University of Kansas. I have experience tutoring college students in physics, and I will be tutoring for the Kansas Algebra Program at KU in the fall. I most enjoy tutoring math because I understand the struggles and frustration that the subject can cause. My favorite part about tutoring is seeing all of a student's hard work and perseverance pay off when that concept finally clicks in their mind. Learning is a passion of...

An energetic, ambitious, responsible and intelligent individual who has developed a mature and responsible approach to any tasks undertaken. Experienced, creative, adaptable and bright individual with an excellent motivation towards learning and helping others. ... I have two teaching philosophies as a tutor: to get students to think about science (and other classes) as a process, and to individualize their learning experiences.... In a typical first session with a student I will introduce myself and then ask them questions about themselves, such as "What is your favorite color?" or " What is your favorite hobby?" as an ice breaker and then follow up by telling them something about me.

...written communication in addition to community outreach. As an Undergraduate Teaching Assistant, I was directly involved in one-on-one learning sessions, lecturing, and classroom management. I taught Principles of Biology Laboratory independently for classrooms of 12 students. In order to engage more with non-biology majors, I reiterated complex concepts by illustrating hand-drawn diagrams as well as verbal explanations. I took a very similar approach to teaching students that were more well-versed in biology when I taught...
