Award-Winning SAT Tutors in Olathe, KS

Kristen ...I have a great innate desire to help the next generation learn and succeed, I realize that the first step to doing so is getting to know my students and their individual needs. Only then can I create truly meaningful, relevant, and applicable lessons and tutoring sessions that will help them learn and grow. My passion is to help students realize their potential as life-long learners and help them succeed as they navigate their educational...

Erin ...and what goals they have for themselves. Then I relate the material to those interests, connecting it to things students already enjoy and understand. Learning is so much more fun if it is relevant to things we already love. I also try to create hands-on experiences that we can hold, move, and arrange as we talk about math: we have to get up off the worksheet. Making Kool-aid is a much more understandable (and delicious)...

Melanie ...tutoring shortly thereafter and find it to be satisfying for everyone involved - parents, students and teachers. What an exciting way to help others become more successful in what they are trying to achieve whether it be spelling words, essay writing, math facts, phonics and beginning reading, algebra, oganization and study skills, getting prepared to take the ACT or SAT to get into the college of their choice to studying for exams in high school...

Christopher ...clause in Ancient Greek and I hope to begin a PhD program in the fall. I completed my MA with a 4.0 GPA and received a perfect score on the verbal GRE. I also 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...

Daria ...a small school in Namibia (Southern Africa) teaching English, Math, and Computer Skills in a resource-poor environment. I am enthusiastic and creative, and am constantly scanning the latest pedagogical literature to keep abreast of current teaching theories. My strengths lie in verbal expression, although I have a background in science (especially biology) as well. My specialty is helping to improve language/reading scores and writing/editing skills, as my perfect scores in the verbal portions of the...

Colton ...However, I'd say test prep is my 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...

Anna ...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 as an English language teacher in France, helping small groups of middle- and high-schoolers put their language learning into practice by organizing projects, conversations, and debates. In my free time, I like to read, write, draw, and learn about topics of interest such as Spanish and world literature.

Leah ...be fun, engaging, and that teachers and students should share mutual respect. Outside of academia, I love to read and write, run, bake and cook yummy food with things I get at the farmer's market, hang out/watch TV with my fiancé, and take bike rides around the Lenexa area. I am originally from Manhattan, KS, so I also like to go home and visit my family, eat my mom's cooking, and take hikes on the...

Bobbie ...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 what aids in my compassion. They don’t...

Andrea ...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 for me, so I'm definitely looking forward...
