Award-Winning ACT Tutors in St. Louis, MO

...all the sciences. I have taken multiple AP tests recently during high school. I can aid not only in the content of these tests, but also test taking strategies and tricks that have helped me get high scores on AP tests. Additionally, I can tutor you for the ACT. Since the ACT tests your test-taking strategies over content/knowledge, I believe that the strongest way of approaching this test is by learning strategies. As a student...

...as a literacy advocate for Ready Readers and as a tutor for Girls Inc. In my free time, I like to read books, bake, and train for races; I recently completed my first half marathon! My approach to tutoring is recognizing that everyone has a different learning style. Experimenting with different approaches to learning, whether that be visual, auditory, or tactile- kinesthetic, enables the student to not only grasp the material, but also retain it....

...guitar. Calculus tells us how hard we need to step on our brakes. Chef's know that Algebra holds the secret to perfect recipes. The world of sports revolves around player statistics. Math does more than tell us how much to tip our waiters, it helps us understand the entire universe. The more we practice this universal subject, the more see it in our everyday lives, and in turn are able to apply the knowledge and...

...of the University of Minnesota with a bachelors in Economics, Political Science, and Global Studies. I focus on subjects in the social sciences, predominantly economics and history. My philosophy towards teaching is that if you can't explain it to your grandmother then you either don't have information mastered or you're ineffectively communicating it. In my free time I am a baseball enthusiast, kayaker, cyclist and cinephile with the hopes of one day becoming a true...

...Varsity Tutors. My first tutoring job was as a Teacher's Assistant for a 5 week summer enrichment program for middle school aged kids. Not only did I love teaching and relating information to each child's personal needs, but also I enjoyed being able to look back at material I had already learned from the fresh point of view of someone seeing it for the first time. There are many reasons that I believe make me...

...I have also tutored many people, mostly relatives, in both math and physics. I tutored most of these students face to face but some, such as my daughter and her college friends, I tutored online using Facetime. Some students who did not understand the material when they came to me have gone on to successful careers using the material we covered. My nephew who I tutored in high school physics went on to become a...

...I have worked with kids of all ages (and loved it!), from practicing times tables with elementary schoolers to ACT prep and college application brainstorming with high school seniors.

I love working with students to realize their full potential in subjects that may have previously been considered boring or challenging. In my free time, I enjoy spending time at...

As a member of the Washington University Admissions Interview Team, I have a wealth of knowledge about what colleges are looking for in a prospective student’s standardized test scores and personal essays. I hope to develop my students into critical thinkers that are able to tackle a question or essay prompt with confidence. In my free time I enjoy traveling, reading and taking advantage of all the activities...

...years. My students have consistently achieved significant growth on the ACT English, ACT Reading, and Common Core tests. In schools where students had never passed AP scores, over 45 of my students scored 3s, 4s, and 5s on the AP US History, AP English Language, and AP US Government exams. With the right motivation, I believe that all students can achieve excellence in all subject areas. All students can thrive with individual attention and instruction,...

...pleasure of coaching new math teachers during our summer training program. I have years of teaching and tutoring experience, and am excited to empower each student I work with to invest in themselves and stretch their knowledge. Specifically, I love to tutor math and test-prep (ACT and LSAT), where I can help students realize that a subject or task that once seemed intimidating is possible to excel in. I look forward to working with you.

In addition to academic support, my tutoring philosophy emphasizes organizational skills,...

...my family, on both sides, so I come to education quite naturally. I learned early on that building relationships with my students was key to being able to affect great change in them. I firmly believe that students won't be as driven to learn if they don't feel a connection with their teacher. I have 12 years teaching experience in both Spanish and English. My experiences range from private alternative schools to large public schools,...
