Meet Our Tutors
Kaplan Premier's tutors are the foundation of our service.
Having graduated our rigorous training and development program,
they all share the same level of excellence: near-perfect scores
(in the 95th percentile or above), previous instructional
experience, and—most importantly—the ability to create an
interactive one-on-one learning environment based on the
individual needs of each student.
Here are just a few of the tutors who work with Kaplan Premier
students in the Houston area. At the onset of any tutoring
program, your Academic Coordinator will conduct our Tutor
Matching Interview to find the best possible tutor for
your child.

Teaching/Tutoring Experience: I have tutored for
4 years with Kaplan. More than 5 years' experience in the special
education field, first as a paraprofessional and as a teacher,
has given me expertise in working with students of all skill
levels. I have also enjoyed tutoring ESL (English as a Second
Language). I currently substitute teach, which helps me expand my
repertoire of strategies for benefiting students of all ages and
abilities.
Degrees Earned: B.A. in Anthropology, with a
minor in Linguistics, University of Texas; M.Ed. in Educational
Psychology/Special Education, University of Houston
What I enjoy about tutoring with Kaplan Premier:
I get a thrill every time a parent contacts me and tells me that
one of my students improved significantly on the test!
