Award-Winning ACT English Tutors serving Olathe, KS

...After getting my master's, I joined Teach For America and taught high school English for two years. Most recently, I taught composition and developmental English at Penn Valley Community College.

Overall, this leads to a greater understanding of concepts and a better ability to recall information and...

Getting to see when a student has a light bulb moment is the most rewarding part. With...

I believe that everyone has something important to say, and being able to express ourselves through writing is one of the best ways to make others listen...

...soft skills to develop not only professionally, but academically as well. Leadership and confidence translates into drive, and drive translates to motivation, tenacity, and self-enterprise. I am an avid trivia geek, a giant science nerd, and a musician! I love to incorporate my hobbies into my study skills and tutoring skills, I find that the more I can relate to the student, the easier it will be to bridge the abstract, hard knowledge into concepts...

I believe it is important to tailor my lessons to each individual student, focusing on their preferred modality of learning, and using their strengths to improve their weaknesses.

...in need of a tutor. My main area of focus is within the English discipline; which is what my Masters of Arts illustrates. This includes subjects such as composition, literature (of any period/genre), grammar/mechanics, history of the English language, public speaking, etc. However, I also have experience in test prep for those that seek higher educational opportunities. I'm happily married (upcoming 4 years in June) and enjoy time with my cat (as well as my...

...I hold dearest. Rather than tutor for the sake of hours, I hope to spend my time and the time of my clients effectively. I aim to not only improve test scores, but to set students up so they may efficiently study without a tutor. I hope to not only have an impact on students during the few hours I see them, but to improve their study habits for a lifetime's impact.

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!
