Christine
Experienced Reading and Math Tutor for First-Seventh Grades
Hello! Are you looking for someone to make a personal connection and build academic strengths with your child? I am passionate about getting to know children as individuals and helping to build self motivation. Teaching (and tutoring!) is so much more than just numbers and books. I will work with your child's existing strengths to grow self esteem and confidence. Often times, a child's biggest academic hurdle is their own negative feelings about their abilities. I am all about focusing on the... Read more
Jonathan
English--specialty in research writing and literature.
I am absolutely fascinated by the English language and have spent my academic career studying it. Being able to share that fascination is one of the things I enjoy most about teaching. However, I know many people, no matter their walk in life, struggle with the intricacies and utter confusion which goes hand and hand with communicating in (arguably) the most complicated language in the world. I have a life-long interest in teaching. After scoring a 31 on my English ACTs when I was 17, I w... Read more
Semah
Teaching TEFL for all ages
I started my career as a TEFL teacher by first being a student of a foreign language; however, not in school but in real life. I moved to Bulgaria and worked there, without knowing a single Bulgarian word before I left. My teacher in Bulgarian was flexible, funny, and active in my learning experience and he gave me the skills I needed to succeed. Therefore, I understand what it means to live in an area without knowing the language and learning from zero. I understand how students feel, when t... Read more

I have enjoyed teaching all grade levels, preschool to college
After completing my master's in psychology, I taught at Furman University in SC and then locally at DeVry. When my daughter started kindergarten, I became a very involved parent, volunteering multiple days to help with tutoring as well as other teacher's aide needs. I discovered that I could work part-time as a para-professional which I then did, teaching Speech at an elementary school, then a middle school and finally at a high school. I really enjoy the one-on-one relationship I can get... Read more

As a former martial arts instructor, I recognize that everyone has their own learning abilities and preferences, and some teaching strategies may be excellent for some students, but a poor method for others. One of the best things about teaching or tutoring a course is helping the student grow and learn how they may be able to learn more effective, and succeed in their academic goals. As a recent graduate of Iowa State University, I still know the struggles and pressure of being a student,... Read more

I am currently a graduate student at KUMC in the Biostatistics program, where I am also a Graduate Research Assistant. As part of my GRA, I am tutoring an intro statistics course.
