Award-Winning Tutors serving Olathe, KS

...as a tutor. I have been tutoring students in math for over 30 years. I am comfortable teaching all levels of math and/or statistics. I also have decades of experience helping students prepare for Standardized Tests. I believe that in order to excel at math, you must master previous concepts. Many students have gaps in their learning, which has been made even worse by the Covid Pandemic. I will help you understand the WHY and...

...teaching experience was at Mizzou. After getting my master's, I joined Teach For America and taught high school English for two years. Most recently, I taught composition and developmental English at Penn Valley Community College. My approach to tutoring is non-directive. I ask questions to help guide students to answers, which helps them practice critical thinking skills and deduction, rather than rote memorization. Overall, this leads to a greater understanding of concepts and a better...

...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) way to learn about ratios than just doing practice problems out of a book. If I am relating math to my own interests, I often turn to baking, crafting, the outdoors, and Kansas City sports.

I have been tutoring in various subjects for nearly 15 years now. I can tutor various subjects with my strengths being in Reading, Languages, Literature, History and Science. I am best with math through 12th grade. I have experience helping students pass their GED and I can help with all of the sections including math, science, and reading. I am fairly proficient in Spanish, though I read and comprehend it better than I speak it.

I am a former middle-school English teacher (and former high-school French teacher). I am certified to teach English (grades 6-12), History/Government/Social Studies (grades 6-12), Psychology (grades 6-12), Health (grades PreK-12), General Music (grades PreK-12), and French (grades PreK-12).

I have a B.A. in Modern Languages (French) and Sociology, an M.A. in Modern Languages (French/Second-Language Acquisition), and an M.A. in Teaching (Secondary).

...the University of Missouri - Kansas City (UMKC). I am also currently enrolled in an accelerated mathematics degree program that will allow me to obtain a Master's degree two semesters after graduating with my Bachelor's degrees. After completion of this, I will go to graduate school to obtain a Ph.D. in Physics. I know that I am interested in doing research, though I am not sure exactly what area of physics I would like to...

...undergraduate and graduate degrees. I have a Bachelor of Business Administration focused in management and a Master of Business Administration specialized in Healthcare Administration. Although my degrees are both in business, my educational background is broad spanning from biology to corporate communication to business. My passion is in healthcare, so I am interested in all subjects affecting healthcare in general. My experience with tutoring started in high school working with fellow classmates and most recently...

...where the mistake was rather than me simply pointing it out to them. Outside of academia, I am interested in a variety of things. As I briefly mentioned, I was in a fraternity at Missouri State. I enjoy being very social and networking with a lot of people. I was also in an organization called University Ambassadors in college. With this organization, I served as the public relations team for the university by coordinating and...

...It is my goal to help you learn while having fun. I've been teaching for 20 years and have my PhD in Molecular Biosciences, but my teaching and tutoring experience ranges from Writing to Chemistry and all sorts of Biology. I love to teach and tutor! My favorite thing is to explain difficult concepts in simple and straight-forward ways. I am a very interactive tutor, and I always encourage questions as they come up. We...

...the University of Missouri-Kansas City, studying for my B.A. in Theatre-Performance and French. I also attended the British American Drama Academy at Oxford University. Though I tutor a range of subjects, I specialize in writing, public speaking, French, and also work as a pronunciation consultant for singers. My experience as an actress enables me to assist students struggling with issues related to public speaking. I am also a published writer, and can help you at...

I am a young teacher that is dual certified in Mathematics and English Language Arts. I am enthusiastic about teaching and I love fostering a deeper understanding and love for mathematics in my students. I love working with middle school students and helping them develop study skills that will last them through their college careers. ... I believe the fundamental goal of teaching is to foster a love for learning. Learning takes place in many different...

...fun and educational experience that inspires a love for learning. I understand that school and life can be overwhelming, and that many people look at school as just a way to get a better job. However, as cheesy as it may sound, you never stop learning. I have experienced success and failure in the classroom throughout my academic career. I quit college for several years, unsure if I was ever going back, until I met...

...my teaching philosophy being reasoned thought and repeatable habits. The goal is to encourage thinking in rational ways in the classroom, in groups and when distance learning outside the classroom. I emphasize to the student the need to inventory their resources with the goal of learning how to remain productive while working alone. Finally, I aim to encourage the students to learn about their strengths and weaknesses, especially when it comes to learning.

We never stop learning. We learn something new everyday. New knowledge to teach new people. Effort is what matters where there's a well there's a must into learning.

...at the University of Kansas majoring in Computer Science. I mainly tutor ACT prep and programming in C++. To me, one of the most satisfying feelings is helping someone develop and understanding of a concept they are struggling to grasp, which is why I love tutoring! Learning is something I've always valued highly, and it has always pained me when I would see my peers disregarding school and education as boring or useless. To me,...

...theory. As my playing evolved, I studied under flamenco and heavy metal guitarist Ryan Johnson. Under my business AKG Guitar Lessons I have served over 200 students and was featured in the News and Observer. I also held a parent/student night which was a great success. I cover almost every style of music conceivable and part of my quest for knowledge is to be versatile so that my students have the best music education possible.

...training, and education for my whole life. My approach to education is to try to make it as much fun for you as it is for me.

My postgraduate work was completed at Bristol University where I achieved the PGCE (Certificate in Education) teaching qualification with a main subject specialism in physics and secondary specialisms in integrated science...

...I received my Bachelor of Science in Secondary Education with a social studies teaching option and I have minors in both history and Spanish. I am certified to teach social studies in grades 7-12 and Spanish in grades K-12 in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Since graduation, I have worked as a long-term substitute Spanish teacher in two different high schools where I taught Spanish 2, Spanish 3, and Spanish 3 Honors. I have provided...

...last five, and I know that it takes more than one way to teach a person to know whether or not they understand what was told. I think this is an essential part of learning and actually understand what is taught and how to use it rather than just what was given to learn for a test. I love reading, writing, and lounging around with my pets in my spare time, so my content that...

...in Spanish and Biology. In college, I worked as an Instructional Assistant for Spanish I and II at my university, plus as a high school tutor at a local high school.
