Kansas City Math Tutor
My name is Zachary. My interest in tutoring started when I was a middle school student myself, helping a few classmates study for tests or cram for the state-required evaluations. When I was in high school, I started tutoring students in Algebra, Geometry, and Calculus I for cash, and quickly found I could make good money tutoring a wide range of subjects. I obtained my undergraduate degree from Baker University in Psychology, while continuing to tutor in increasing subject areas like English, biology, chemistry and philosophy. My graduate degree is a Master's of Science in Experimental Psychology, which was a statistics-heavy degree path.
When I tutor, I like to first discover how students are most comfortable learning. Psychology has long held that multiple learning styles exist, and while debate continues to rage over which style is best I prefer to think of each style as having its own strengths and drawbacks. However, I have learned to teach to many different styles, and can teach contextually, rote, test-oriented or experience-based lessons. I am also comfortable with group tutoring, having led several classes of students in graduate school.
