Award-Winning Tutors serving Olathe, KS

As a tutor, I would like to foster not only mastery of individual subjects, but a strengthened approach to academia in general. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy playing and writing music on the guitar, watching movies, playing basketball with my friends, and hanging out with my animals.

I love standardized tests. It might sound weird, but they're usually straightforward, you can sit with them for hours, and, most importantly, you CAN get better at them through practice. That's what I hope to help you do as you prepare for the LSAT, SAT, ACT or any other subject. I also have a blast editing essays, so make sure to use all of these services to their fullest potential!

...that I realized this passion and strength were driving me towards education. Since then, I've enjoyed working with students of all ages and abilities to further their math skills. I believe that everyone has mathematical abilities and I enjoying working and watching these abilities grow and improve in students. In my free time, I enjoy running with my Border Collie/Lab mix, Sadya, and swimming laps. I tend to spend my evenings knitting or reading.

...an intervention math teacher. There, I tutored elementary- and middle-school students in math in small groups. Working in that setting taught me more about how to explain abstract concepts simply and creatively, and about how to use 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-...

...a volunteer project I did some tutoring in other subjects such as English and History. Anywhere in the sciences is what I really enjoy tutoring and have the best grasp of the content, biology specifically because I have taken a plethora of biology/pre-med classes and have found my passion in that field. I think the major focus of any tutoring session has to be focused around knowledge AND habit retention. Not only should the student...

...I am not very far removed from either the ACT or the SAT, and feel as though this will help me better empathize with specific concepts and areas students are struggling with. I graduated high school with enough credits to obtain a minor in mathematics from the University of Minnesota. Finally, I have significant experience tutoring middle school math as I have been doing so for the past several years through programs at my high...

...worked closely with many students of all ages, and I find that, no matter how old, every person has areas they can improve in. It is important to me to know what each of my students wants to accomplish in their time with me, and how they think that can best be achieved. I have attended Washburn University in Topeka Kansas, The University of Kansas in Lawrence, Kansas, and Johnson County Community College in Olathe,...

...tutoring other students. I also spent hours and hours tutoring others over the Internet. For me teaching is an adventure. Everyone has different perspectives, and when you are teaching you have to be able to both provide a new perspective and to understand (so as to enlarge) someone else's perspective. In my non-teaching time, I am interested in Physics and Mathematics and working out practical problems from plumbing to electronics. I will someday go back...

...so much that I was going to do it forever by being a teacher. While that 7-year-old mindset has matured, the underlying passion has not changed. I have been teaching high school math for 11 years and still love engaging with students about the subject. Throughout those 11 years, I have had the privilege of working with many types of students with many different skill levels. I've loved these experiences because it has given me...

...absolutely love teaching and learning. I have had the opportunity to work with a variety of students. I am skilled at teaching the basics, such as phonetics, to the more advanced, such as college essays. In my free time, I play in a local bluegrass band and am often found running along the streets of KC as I like to train for races around the country. In the summers, I travel back to California and...

...all students learn differently and have different interests and it is my job to find ways to engage my students in a way that they are willing and able to learn. While I certainly am not perfect, I will work as hard as my students do to ensure that they have a successful learning experience. Ultimately, it is my goal to not only teach students the material, but teach them a process for thinking and...

...in Student Senate comes in. I have an extensive background in math, science and the humanities from both university and high school. In the future, I plan to attend law school or a Master’s program in public policy or international relations. I discovered I enjoy tutoring while helping my younger brother with his homework and tutoring my friends for the ACT. Empowering people with knowledge is extremely rewarding because they can apply it to succeed....

...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...

...science. I have tutored students in a wide range of materials from standardized tests (SAT and ACT), to various high-school subjects (including Physics, Chemistry, Algebra, and Geometry). I scored in the 99th percentile of both the ACT and SAT, and I strive to help every student I tutor gain the necessary skills and habits to achieve whatever score they are aiming for. Standardized testing and school in general can be a huge stress on students,...

...experience in tailoring subjects to the learning styles of my students and also taught me how to bring subjects, often viewed as boring, to life for them. I really enjoy working with students on History and English, as well as Critical Reading and Writing test prep. I hope that my students come away from our sessions with both the factual foundation that will they need to succeed, and a broader understanding of the subject's importance....

...can initially appear to be daunting conceptual barriers. Last, but not least, I know what it's like to struggle. I am not a math and science genius who breezed through college to get his astrophysics degree. I had to work very hard for my grades, especially during my freshman year. I can empathize with students who strain to get through their courses and am better equipped to help them because of my struggle. I am...

...graduate of University of Missouri-Columbia (Mizzou) where I received my Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering in 2013. I worked for Procter and Gamble for about five years as a process engineer and project manager. Recently, I obtained my teaching certification which qualifies me to teach math at both the middle and high school levels. I have a strong passion for both math and science, particularly algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus, general chemistry and organic chemistry.

I graduated with a chemical engineering degree and have been working as an engineer in manufacturing and now consulting. I worked as a tutor as well as a Teaching assistant in college. I think learning is an exciting process and really believe every student has enormous potential.

Hello! My teaching speciality is math and science, and I truly believe that anyone can learn these subjects when they're presented in an interesting way. I am very nearly finished with a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry degree at the University of Kansas. I am currently employed as a research assistant in a computational chemistry group where I'm working towards going to graduate school.
