I am a Chiropractor currently practicing in the Leawood area. I grew up in Omaha and after coming to the KC area for school, married my beautiful wife and decided to stick around.As a medical professional I am well-qualified to tutor anything in the field of biology up to quite advanced levels, especially human anatomy and physiology. Additionally, I've worked hard to get this far, and can confidently help students of high school age and below with nearly any subject. I'm also quite good with math.I have always loved teaching and recently taught an Anatomy andPhysiology course at a Community College, but have had plenty of free time lately and thought that tutoring would be a great way to feed my love of teaching!

I am a sixteen year veteran of post secondary education. My favorite subjects to teach are Anatomy, Physiology, and Microbiology. I love talking about the amazing human body machine! Though not a chemist, I also enjoy teaching Chemistry. Over the course of many years I have learned that it is usually the math within chemistry that bogs students down. I have developed a sure fire way of breaking through that barrier in the classroom and would love to share that in private tutoring sessions! I also have much experience teaching freshman success which entails organization, attitude control, test prep and test taking, note taking etc.Being a college prof really means life long learner. This extends to my personal life as well. I love the out of doors! I live in the country and love to hike through the woods. I consider myself an amateur birder. I swim and ride bikes and garden. Really, if it's outside I'm in. I am all about discovering the wonders of nature!

Teachingwhat does this word mean? In my experience, it appears to hold many different meanings and perspectives. But what does it mean to me?My teaching philosophy is centered around the recipient achieving a goal that he/she has set for themselves. It's about the student, not the "teacher." In order to effectively "teach," we must let go of any ego we might have regarding our own knowledge and experiences. Yes, these things are important, but not at the expense of a student's learning and success.Teaching is a sharing of knowledge and experiencesif I know something you want to know, then I share it with you, hopefully in a way that you will understand. THAT's teaching.In order to teach effectively, you must be a guide to the recipients, allowing them to discover things on their own.Teaching is more about communication than it is about deep seeded knowledge. One with less knowledge about a subject but better communication skills will tend be a great teacher, in my opinion. For example, I may have the highest degree, highest level of understanding and knowledge of a particular subject, but if I do not know how get YOU to see it or understand, then I cannot actually teach it to you. If, on the other hand, I have less knowledge, but can help you find a way to understand the subject, then I have become a good teacher.Relate to your "audience," your class, those waiting to learn from you. Communicate well with them, and try to create an atmosphere conducive to learning. People tend to learn best when they are in a positive state of mind. I always strive to accomplish this for any and all of my students.

Helping students to discover the amazing abilities of the human body is always a joy to behold.I communicate with students through the Varsity app, not by text.

I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old electronics, playing Pokemon, or picking at my guitar.

I am an interdisciplinary educator with an Ed.M. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and a B.A. from Dartmouth College. My background is primarily in integrated arts learning and museum education and I specialize in visual arts, history and art history, and object-based learning. In all subjects, I take a creative, inquiry-based and learner-centered approach, designing opportunities for each unique individual to meet their learning goals.

I am a recent graduate from a masters program in biostatistics at Columbia University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in biological sciences, with a focus in neurobiology at Northwestern University. In August, I will be starting a doctoral program in biostatistics at NYU. I was a teaching assistant at Columbia University in my department and also have tutored graduate students and undergraduates privately as well. My primary areas of tutoring are math and statistics coursework in addition to math sections on standardized tests such as the GRE and GMAT. I am very passionate about helping students feel more confident and excited about math. In my spare time, I enjoy running, playing piano, and spending time with friends and family.

I am a graduate of Wesleyan University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with High Honors. With eight years of experience working in education, I've tutored students in math, science, history, and English, as well as helped students prepare for standardized tests. I've guided adults towards passing the US Citizenship Exam and taught English in India, where I lived for six months. Whenever I work with a student I personalize the lessons to fit their particular learning style, since I know every student is unique and having the right fit can make all the difference in making learning fun and effective. My strengths are tutoring the social sciences and humanities, as well as making math and standardized tests approachable to students that normally don't like those subjects. In my spare time I like traveling, spending time in the outdoors (climbing & backpacking), meditation, and playing soccer. Next fall I will be beginning my PhD in Education at Harvard University.

I am a junior Mechanical Engineering major at Yale, and I hope to become a Naval Aviator after college. I am also a varsity sailor, and enjoy playing music with friends when I can get some free time. I have been tutoring my fellow students throughout my entire academic career, and I would best describe my tutoring style as one that adapts to each students' needs. For example, I have always tried to frame questions in a different way so that the student can better understand the question. Some students need visual representations of numbers and systems to understand them, and others benefit more by understanding the concepts behind each formula. I prefer to tutor in math and physics, and especially with real world application problems. I hope to help students improve their standardized test scores and their understanding of the math and sciences so that they can achieve their academic goals!

I'm Solange - a recent graduate from Harvard where I studied Sociology & Women's Studies. I've been tutoring for eight years now, and have worked with a wide range of ages and in a wide range of subjects. Some of my specialties are college prep/test taking II worked in the admissions office on campus); social sciences; and literature/writing.

I am a graduate of Washington University in St Louis, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in History with minors in Humanities and Anthropology. Since graduation, I have worked as a tutor, teacher, and director of tutors at a charter public middle school in Boston. During this time I also received my Masters in Mild to Moderate Disabilities from Simmons College. I have worked extensively with students with a range of abilities, including students with specific learning disabilities, emotional impairments, dyslexia, and ADHD. My teaching experience has given me a deep understanding of the knowledge and habits essential to academic success and has given me the opportunity to hone a variety of strategies that ensure students at each level can achieve their academic goals. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, my favorite ones are Reading, Elementary/Middle School Math, History, and Test Prep. In my experience, tutoring is the most rewarding when a student has that "aha!" moment and achieves a new level of understanding and confidence in his/her abilities. I am a firm believer in the transformative power of education, and I see my role to be that of a facilitator and coach who is there to help the student reach his/her goals through individualized support and rigorous practice. In my free time, I enjoy reading, running, practicing my Spanish, and discovering new music. I am also an avid traveler and just got back from a 3 month trip to South America. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you!

I am proud to be a part of Varsity Tutors! I am originally from San Antonio, TX; I completed my undergraduate education at Rice University in Houston where I received a bachelor's degree in Biochemistry and Cell Biology. Currently, I am in my second year of medical school at Baylor College of Medicine.
