Meador Tutoring
About
I believe a large part of tutoring is confidence-building and creating a better person overall. My reward comes from seeing a student who is confused (which happens a lot with chemistry!) come to understand a complex topic. I want to be a friendly face that my students trust and enjoy seeing. I'll always ask how they're doing, and am willing to help with any subject I can!
I have my Bachelors in Secondary Education with an emphasis on chemistry from K-State and am about to finish my Masters of Divinity from MBTS. I spent a year tutoring before going back to get my post-grad.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I start by asking how they feel about their life and their class. I want to understand what's going on in their world that makes it hard for them to succeed. Then I find out where their class is in their curriculum and determine if I need to cover prior information before jumping in at that point.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have my Bachelors in Secondary Education, which included a semester of student teaching high school chemistry at Blue Valley Northwest. I have experience tutoring and teaching small groups and one-on-one.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
My lessons are $50/hr.
What types of students have you worked with?
I've worked with students from freshman year of high school through senior year of college. I've taught weekend lessons to adults with disabilities, and engineering to kindergartners.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Find someone who will understand how you learn and what you're interested in.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Do I have any resources that can help me with this? Have I solved a similar problem before? What do I remember from when I was taught this?
