Kellor

Calculus Tutor • +23 Subjects

I am entirely committed to ensuring every one of my students break through the barriers preventing them from reaching their full potential. My process involves an individual, connected explanation of the content, discussing problem-solving strategies to make testing much easier than it seems, encouraging practice and the growth of individual learning, and making sure my style of teaching is right for my student's style of learning. Most importantly, I seek to make my students love learning as much as I do.

Cameron

Calculus Tutor • +20 Subjects

I am a graduate of Kansas State University with a Bachelor of Arts and a Master of Arts degree in English Literature. During my time at Kansas State, I worked as a student tutor on subjects ranging from geology to French, and while pursuing my Master's degree, I taught Expository Writing to college students. While I am experienced with Writing and Language tutoring and enjoy teaching both, I am primarily a standardized test tutor with Varsity Tutors. Test prep combines the challenge of adapting to different learning styles with the high degree of reward that comes from helping a student raise his or her test scores and therefore open doors for that student, and for this reason, it is by far my favorite subject to tutor. I believe that an educator must first appreciate how each individual student approaches a new concept in order to understand the most effective means for that student to progress, and for this reason, I place the utmost importance on the student rather than the subject. When I am not tutoring or substitute teaching, I enjoy playing guitar, watching football and writing fiction.

Eamon

Calculus Tutor • +26 Subjects

I'm an oldest child, which means growing up, I was the first kid to run into most challenges, and the best equipped one to teach my five younger siblings how to navigate them. Working with them and mentoring them was probably my first experience with "tutoring", and it left strong impressions on me. To help someone is to treat them like your family.

Jack

Calculus Tutor • +30 Subjects

I am a graduate of The University of Tulsa, where I received BA degrees in Anthropology and Sociology. While studying at Tulsa, I tutored students in several subjects including, Sociology, Anthropology, and Statistics, among others. In addition, I occasionally served as a guest lecturer at the University's introductory-level Sociology courses. I offer tutoring in SAT/ACT test prep, English, Anthropology, Sociology, and Social Studies. I enjoy most working with students on writing and revising essays in any subject. When I'm tutoring, I think it is most important to talk through issues with my students and try to ascertain how they're thinking about the problems they're trying to solve. If you're thinking about the fundamentals of a problem in the correct way, any other details will fall into place fairly easily.

Emma

Calculus Tutor • +34 Subjects

I am currently in my second year at the University of Kansas. I am majoring in secondary history and government education and minoring in art history. Most of my tutoring experience comes from high school, where I peer tutored a student in her world history class. As an upperclassman, I also gained a lot of mentoring experience on my school's debate team as I helped new debaters learn the ropes of the activity. As my intended college degree reflects, I am most excited about teaching history, government, and art history classes, but I have a strong background in English as well. As a former AP and honors high school student, I would love to share the strategies that I found to be the most successful. I believe education not only improves society, but can help shape students to their fullest potential. I would love to be someone who facilitates that development. Outside of academics, I am a total bookworm, my favorite TV show is The Good Place, and I try to spend as much time outside as I can without getting a sunburn.

This focused approach helps students build confidence and master concepts more thoroughly than they might in a group environment.

They can help students strengthen skills in reading, math, science, and other core subjects while ensuring their progress aligns with what Emporia schools expect.

Your student's first session is focused on building rapport and understanding their needs. The tutor will assess your student's current level, discuss specific challenges or goals, and ask about their learning preferences. This foundation helps the tutor create a personalized plan for the sessions ahead, whether your student needs help with a struggling subject, test prep, or enrichment.

We also support students preparing for ACT testing, working through algebra and geometry challenges, and building writing skills. Tutors can help with any subject your student is studying—just let us know what your student needs most.

Pricing for personalized tutoring varies based on the subject, tutor qualifications, and frequency of sessions. We work with families to find a tutoring plan that fits their budget and schedule.

Many students show noticeable improvement within a few weeks of consistent tutoring, especially in areas where they were struggling. However, the timeline depends on your student's starting point, the subject, and how frequently they meet with their tutor. A tutor will help set realistic goals and track progress throughout the process, keeping you updated on your student's growth.
