Award-Winning LSAT Tutors in Overland Park, KS

...English language learners; engaged pre-K children in science experiments; and assisted my peers with coursework as an undergraduate at Notre Dame. I believe learning looks different for everyone, and a little patience and creativity can go a long way in tutoring. My day job in refugee resettlement utilizes my communication skills and my ability to solve real-life logic problems, like those on the LSAT and college admissions tests. I specialize in writing as a professional...

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!

...economic theory to real-world application. I???ve worked in the Government, the private sector and a central bank. These experiences have enhanced my understanding of the economy, as it has gave insight into training in economics and its application in applied research. I also have some experience tutoring students of different age groups and levels of education. While I can tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Economics. In college, I gained...

...currently a senior at Washington University in St. Louis and will be attending law school next year. My areas of expertise are Political Science and Government, History, Writing, and ACT prep. I teach a weekly course to underserved youth for ACT prep and have done well personally on both the ACT and the LSAT. My philosophy is to guide you in your search to find the correct answers - not to give them to you....

...addition, I achieved my Ph.D. in mathematics education from New York University. I have quite a bit of experience tutoring a wide variety of mathematical subjects across all age groups from middle school to graduate level level courses. As a former college teacher and administrator, I have first-hand knowledge of how and why students struggle with the quantitative subject areas. This experience has served me well in finding ways to help students learn how to...

...to take the bar exam. Tutoring is a challenging yet rewarding experience for me. Everyone learns a little bit differently from someone else, and to be able to help another student succeed in their academic life is a privilege for me. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy running, reading, traveling, and spending time with family and friends. I lived in France and England for a few years in college, so I've worked with many people from...

...and why many students struggle in other areas as well - they misuse their working memory! Our brains work by combining small bits of information at a time and the process can easily be derailed by anxiety, missing previous information, poor study habits, or a psychological condition. I've worked with students with each of these problems (and more) and seen the vast majority improve their performance, which gives them confidence, which improves their performance even...

...writing assignments. Most of these assignments were either papers or exam essays. In eight history classes, I have gotten seven A's and one A-. I attribute much of my success largely to my writing skills, especially my outlining and revising strategies. I have also done very well in my standardized tests, including a 34 on my ACT, a 168 on my LSAT, and very good scores on my AP exams (three 4's and two 5's)....

...school after completing undergrad. My primary goal as a tutor is to build confidence in my students by improving their study habits and their ability to tackle academic weaknesses. I plan on achieving this by going through fundamental questions of the particular discipline and then working with the student in the specific areas of the discipline that they are struggling with. From previous tutoring experience, I have learned that each student has varying learning styles....

...along with minors in psychology and astronomy. While at Truman State I was in the biology honors fraternity and tutored college students in cell biology, ecology, entry level biology classes, entomology, genetics, and more. I've also spent some time in law school at UMKC, and while I enjoyed my time learning there I didn't think being a lawyer was the right fit for me. Despite that, I have passion for learning and gathering knowledge and...

...all the better. I grew up in Michigan and moved to Lawrence in 2013 for grad school, and I love it here. It's a pretty small town, so we've probably crossed paths at some point at the farmers market, at the monthly Free State Story Slam, or on an outdoor basketball court. And I hope we can make it work so that we'll be able to get together to master whatever class or standardized test...

...gave assignments. I was called to teach and I absolutely love what I do!! Being a child of two educators probably had a little bit to do with it as well. My father was a college professor at the University of Nebraska. He instilled in me the love for learning and the expectation to work hard and get results. I watched him plan his lessons nightly at the kitchen table and have never forgotten how...

...a scholarship to complete a semester at Oxford University where I studied the philosophy of law and modern British history. I believe education is more than simply learning enough material to pass. Instead, I use my enthusiasm and knowledge to motivate students to not only get the best scores possible, but to learn real skills they will use throughout their education and in their lives. I strive to motivate students and pass my passion on.

...law school, I tutored high school and college students in History, Writing, and English Literature. I focus on approaching these topics with a holistic attitude, tying history to the present and reading/writing to applicable life skills. While I still tutor in these subjects (and love working with students in them), I also am passionate about helping students who are planning on entering law school with improving their LSAT performance. I believe that with any standardized...

...Central Missouri. As a lifelong learner, I decided to enroll at Emporia State University to work on a Masters in Math/Statistics, I hope to be completed with this soon! I have been fully certified to teach dual credit classes through UMKC. Over the past 20 years I have taught math in the classroom, grades 6-12. Even though I have been in the classroom for two decades, I have even more experience as a tutor. I...

...teaching math and science. These are two subjects I am personally very interested in and have had success passing on my excitement to students. I also enjoy preparing students for test prep (ACT) and elementary and middle school-age students. My approach to teaching is to understand the student as an individual. I like to understand the student's strengths and weaknesses and work from there to expand their knowledge in a given subject. My goal is...

...a PhD candidate at Yale University, where I am completing an iconographic and photogrammetric survey of ancient Maya architecture on the Yucatan Peninsula. Along the way I have travelled in Africa and Latin America, lived in Mexico--where I studied as a Fulbright Scholar--and in Canada, where I taught at McGill University. I started teaching test-prep classes (GRE, LSAT, SAT, and GMAT) twenty years ago and have taught for several national companies. Teaching these classes has...

...July, I will begin dental school in Boston! In college, I worked as a teaching assistant for Biology 150. I assisted the biology professor with all aspects of the Biology 150 course and utilized the professors content and oversight to review the material that was lectured over. During my assigned session times, I lectured over the week's material and answered questions. I also held weekly office hours in which students were able to get one-on...

I enjoy tutoring for standardized tests, particularly the LSAT, as well as helping students improve in history, reading, and writing skills. When I'm not...

...New Orleans; at the end of the term, 100% of my regularly attending students elected to sign up for more classes. I am a recently returned Peace Corps Volunteer; I spent over a year working in a small school in Namibia (Southern Africa) teaching English, Math, and Computer Skills in a resource-poor environment. I am enthusiastic and creative, and am constantly scanning the latest pedagogical literature to keep abreast of current teaching theories. My strengths...
