21-year Veteran Teacher and Tutor in Math, Science, and Test Prep
This is my 21st year of teaching. I am certified by the Missouri Department of Education to teach science and math, grades 6-12 and have passed the required background check from the state. My tutoring experience includes working with students in geometry, algebra, ACT preparation (all subjects), physics, chemistry, biology, algebra 1 & 2, and trigonometry. I have taken ACT classes to learn how to better prepare students for the ACT. I currently teach middle school science in Kirkwood...

Very Knowledgble and Great at Explaining
She and I worked together for my Chemistry course, and my Organic Chemistry course last year, and it helped so much, so I knew I had to request her again for Biology. We had two sessions on different days and worked on a college level Biology course. She helped me to prepare for an exam by going through an old exam that my professor gave my class. She was great at explaining why specific answers are right, and why the other ones are wrong. She helped me to better understand what problems are asking me on the practice exam and helped me to eliminate wrong answers. She also helped me with complicated Biology vocabulary terms. She was very accommodating to my learning styles, and used many different graphics to help explain things to me. Would recommend for anyone!!

Genuinely cares
My daughter was really struggling in Chemistry…Patty was so flexible and knew when her tests and final was and would work with our crazy schedule to squeeze her in when she needed help. She was also very positive and helped my daughter begin to feel more confident in herself and her abilities again. HIGHLY recommend!

Highly Recommended
Patty has helped my daughter in her performance on tests and quizzes. She has "filled in the blanks" where the teacher did not cover the material enough in class for my daughter to have a thorough knowledge of the subject matter. After meeting with Patty it was only a matter of weeks before I saw noticeable results in my daughters scores.

Patty is a very patient and knowledgeable tutor. She is working with my son on preparing for ACT. He already shows a lot of improvement and got a better score on the last ACT test.

Knowledgeable, encouraging
My daughter has been struggling in physics and feeling defeated. Patty has taken her where she is and building upon it at a rate my daughter can comprehend. Patty is providing visual learning to help my daughter understand and remember.

Very patient and gives wonderful guidance.
Patty is teaching all four areas for the ACT test. Very knowledgeable and patient with her student. Gives great examples for preparing for the test. There has been four sessions so far and I feel that this will be a great asset for my son to succeed with the test.
