Carefully selected, highly-credentialed ACT Reading tutors in Naperville, IL
"I'm a recent graduate of Northwestern University, and I have been tutoring both as a job and as a volunteer for many years. I especially enjoy high-schoolers of every level, but I have tutored students from age 6 to 35! To me, tutoring is about really getting to know each student, their strengths, and those areas of weakness that are coming between them and their highest potential. My specialties are math, essay writing and Spanish. I love algebra because it's so neat and there's always a right answer, and I enjoy helping students realize that it's more straightforward than it seems." ...

"Hi,
I am a recent graduate of Pomona College, in Southern California, who just moved to Chicago. I have extensive experience tutoring and working with youth in general.

It may sound trite, but I deeply enjoy the intellectual and interpersonal challenge of the teaching experience."
