Zach M. - Lawrence, KS 66044 (17.9 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I have never had formal experience tutoring. However Throughout my years of schooling I would participate in study groups which I see as everyone tutoring eachother. I also have two siblings, one very close in age and the other is approximately four years younger. Needless to say, I frequently helped my younger sister with her homework. Just to clarify when I say 'help' I do not mean I just gave her the answers, I would make sure that I either explained or demonstrated the correct way to approach a problem in order to make sure that she understood how to apply the knowlege come test time. I am a kenisthetic learner but when "hands on" is really not an option I (especially with mathematics) draw so that I have a visual, physical representation of the task at hand.

Michael d. - Lee's Summit, MO 64063 (22.7 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $20.00/hr.
As a graudate student I was a held a postion as a Graudate Research Assistant for the Geotechnical Lab. As such I taught undergraduate students the theory behind laboratory test, what each test provides the engineer and how to conduct the test. Furthermore I assisted undergraduate students with homework problems and helped them prepare for tests. I am very hands on. I like to first show how a problem is done, discuss the purpose of each step and then the student work the problem. From there I prefer to have students work problems and ask questions as they come up. After each problem is complete I then review the problem with the student.

Tammy B - Shawnee, KS 66226 (1.5 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $53.00/hr.
As a youth mentor with YouthFriends, I have worked one-on-one with students in reading and general life skills. I am current enrolled in Rockhurst University's Master in Education program to obtain a degree and elementary teaching certificate. I have completed over 25 graduate course hours that include methods in teaching math and science. I am looking for opportunities to extend what I have learned in the classroom myself to help students. I am open minded and encouraging. I believe that children each have their own schema and learn in a variety of ways. It is my responsbility as a teacher to get to know my students and find the most effective ways to adapt in order for them to learn. I am patient and professional. I believe children can achieve success through hard work and hands on learning.

Eric N - Bonner Springs, KS 66012 (3.1 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I can usually find a way to relate the material that the student is struggling with to something else that they understand. When they can make connections to more familiar things, then they can think themselves through problems more effectively. I usually achieve this by showing them how to do a problem, doing a problem or two with them, and then having them do problems on their own, only assisting when they need it. I have always picked things up quickly, more quickly than my peers. My peers have often come to me to ask for my help in those areas. I also see how to apply what I have learned to original problems because I see connections and hold a deeper understanding of the material. My double major in Chemistry and Biochemistry with a mino in Mathematics was full of its fair share of difficult material, and I was almost always able to help my peers, as well as younger students, throug

My previous tutoring experiences have allowed me to gain valuable insight into the academic tutoring process. My tutoring style includes taking a proactive approach towards assessing the student using a learn

Laurie W - Prairie Village, KS 66208 (9.4 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I am a high school business and computer teacher. I have taught for 5 years. I throughly enjoy working with and getting to know my students. I consistently work with students to help them excel both in my course work and in their other classes. In addition to having a strong background in business and computers, I was also a communications major, thus I am confident in my ability to help students succeed in the public speaking and language arts. As a high school teacher I have worked with a variety of students from gifted to special needs. My #1 goal is to help each of my students reach his or her ultimate academic potential. Every student has the ability to succeed academically. I believe that children learn best when concepts can be taught/explained to them in their own terms. Once a common ground can be extablished between student and teacher the learning process becomes much easier a

Blythe C - Kansas City, MO 64111 (10.6 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $36.50/hr.
While I was in college, I was a nanny/ tutor for two girls- ages eight and nine for two years. Soon after, I spent two years as a paraprofessional, working one-on-one with emotionally disturbed and behavior disorder students ages twelve to eighteen. At Emporia State University I student taught in Kansas City, Kansas elementary schools for a full year and graduated with honors. Currently, I am a substitute teacher in Kansas City waiting for a full time position this fall. My focal points in tutoring are Language Arts, Social Studies, the arts, and general elementary education. When I teach, I am very nurturing and I want to make sure that my students are fond of the learning process. I like to bring a sense of humor to my classroom and not only provide the best education possible, but also provide an enjoyable learning atmosphere. I like when students are provided hands-on learning

William B - Kansas City, MO 64111 (10.9 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $37.00/hr.
In the classroom I like to find the balance between high energy learning and thoughtful practice. As a tutor I have found that I am friendly and understanding and that these characteristics help students relax and learn. I feel that I am funny, but I have seen my fair share of middle school eye rolls and sighs! My goal is to see children learn and achieve in education and I believe educational progress is something a teacher should see after spending time with a student. I feel that I am a memorable teacher and that I have left a positive impression on each and every student that I have had contact with over the last 10 years. I hope you find that I not only have the education and experience to be a top-notch tutor with Advanced Learners, but that I also have the ability to work with children and to help them achieve their educational goals. I have taught and tutored in many different

Rachel S - Leawood, MO 66206 (10.9 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I absolutely love working with children and will be sensitive to your child's needs and wants, and demonstrate a great deal of patience. I believe that learning should be interesting and as a very creative individual, I am well suited to finding a way to help your child learn in a way that is interesting to them and that they can relate to well. In the past, I've found that in subjects I find difficult, the teacher really does make all the difference, so I strive to make that difference and truly care about the child's success. My degree in English at Rhodes meant that I studied a wide variety of literature, taking both analytical courses and courses that encouraged me to take what I learned from these writers and apply it to my own writing, further developing my skills as a writer, both creatively and as an analytical thinker. This culminated in my senior year, when I studied literary

Jonathan T - Kansas City, MO 64112 (11.4 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I am currently in my last year of undergraduate work in mathematics at UMKC. I have been an informal math tutor for numerous students in the last few years. Last semester I worked for the UMKC Physics department as a lab assistant for graduate students, and did physics tutoring. I have a strong knowledge in mathematics all the way up through differential equations, and advanced proofs techniques. I realize I do not yet have a plethora of experience, but helping fellow students with math has always been enjoyable and rewarding to me. I enjoy tutoring because it allows me to share the thought processes I go through when trying to solve a math problem. In high school I struggled with mathematics, which I believe has always given me a special insight into other people's struggle with the subject. In my opinion the best way to teach someone is to simply discuss the subject with them until you

Laura B - Kansas City, MO 64111 (11.7 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $38.50/hr.
A variety of instructional methods must be used to engage all students in learning. In order to help a child reach his or her potential, a teacher must be willing to acknowledge that student's learning style and work toward improving the child's weaknesses while also enhancing his or her strengths. As a middle school teacher for the past two years, I have discovered that most students learn best and most profoundly when they are allowed to partipate in their own learning instead of just taking orders. As a student at Grinnell College, I was motivated to achieve at a high level. During my four years of college, I earned a BA in French and Biology. I also spent four months during my third year studying in France, where I lived with a host mother and attended classes at a local university. Currently, I am working toward earning my Master's Degree in Education at the University of Missouri-S
