Award-Winning SAT Tutors in Overland Park, KS

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!

...how something works on their own significantly improves long term recall, instead of simply feeding them formulae and rules for them to regurgitate on an examination. As a 23 year old, 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...

...9th grade students at a local synagogue. My class focused on the role of women in some of the most pivotal stories in the bible.

Whether I'm teaching Math, Science, or Reading, the best part about my job is seeing when a kid understands...

...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, and as a tutor I want to help mediate some of that stress by not only better preparing you as a student, but giving you whatever advice I may have to offer to...

...a student understands a concept they previously struggled with is priceless. I have tutored math and reading at the Boys and Girls club for five years in the past, and I also tutored Algebra 1 for a year when I was in high school.

I am a Finance Major and Biochemistry Minor at Arizona State University. I have helped tutor my peers throughout my educational career. My approach is all about helping the student understand "Why" something works the way it does and not just "How". I have found that this helps students retain information better because it gives them a more complete understanding of the material.

...that I get to teach students how to interpret and analyze that information from a mathematical perspective. I recognize that some people really struggle with mathematics. Sometimes math can seem like learning a new language. As a tutor and instructor, my goal is to give students the tools needed to connect and build on ideas, rather than just memorizing formulas. I like to keep students involved by asking questions. I also want my students to...

...my students see how what we're working on isn't so strange after all! Before beginning to work with Varsity Tutors in August of 2014, I worked in a K-8 school as 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....

I am a photographer because I enjoy finding the detail even in the subjects that cause us pain and seeing the beauty in the frustration that leads to success.

I work in cancer clinical research, growing up with a medical condition, I desire...

I'm currently a sophomore majoring in Computer Science at Case Western Reserve University. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I'm most familiar with high school math, history, and English as well as SAT and ACT prep. In my experience tutoring I've found that students respond best to a careful walktrough of the key points in a problem, followed by an opportunity to come up with the answer a similar question on their own.

...myself as a child and could relate to the youth I mentored. From time to time, they would bring in their algebra or chemistry homework and I was glad to help them be successful. Early on, I was attracted to the field of science. I really love knowing how things work, especially on the atomic level. My first feat was understanding the periodic table and finding both rhyme and reason to its madness. This understanding...
