Award-Winning AP Chemistry Tutors serving St. Louis, MO

...Chemistry class. I only taught the whole class a few times, but I quickly realized that being on the teacher side of education gives a whole new perspective on the subject matter, and I find it very interesting. I then got my start individually tutoring students in the class, and was able to help them learn the material and succeed. I'm now a college student looking to tutor either in Columbia, Missouri during the year...

I also believe that with the right amount of patience and determination, no subject is too difficult to learn or to...

...cross-country team, I noticed that membership in our program did not require a community service component. I believe it is important to serve other people as an organization, so I helped to reinitiate a tutoring program between our team and a local nearby elementary school. In this program, athletes from our team go to the school for an hour a week to offer help in reading or math. The teachers and athletes all responded positively...

...me on a level I could understand, I'm unsure that I would have succeeded in any of my introductory science classes. I want to help students who have difficulty learning in a traditional lecture setting by creating problems, critical-thinking strategies, and hands-on learning experiences that are relevant to the student and the material at hand. While both science and math-based classes are my specialty, I also have a strong handle on the ACT. The ACT...

By truly communicating with a student and understanding where he/she is struggling, we can insure improvement by teaching from the basics. I try to invoke in my...

I like to see the positive results students get, and look forward to building careers together.
