Carefully selected, highly-credentialed ACT Science tutors in Northbrook, IL
"I've been tutoring in some way or another for almost ten years! I started working with junior high kids in a music/academic summer camp while I was in high school. While I was studying writing at Illinois Wesleyan University, I volunteered as a tutor in elementary schools, junior highs, high schools, and preschools. I've done a lot of work with bilingual (native Spanish-speaking)students.
For the past 3 years, I've worked in the educational publishing industry -- in other words, I write text books."

"I graduated from Loyola with a BBA Finance in 2010 and a BS in Physics in 2012. I currently split my time between the city (Lakeview/Lincoln Park in Chicago) and the west suburbs (Addison, IL) When I am tutoring a student, I look to make a problem applicable to the student's experiences. I look to show them the parallels between things they are familiar with and the problem in question. Seeing a student's realization that they can solve a problem brings me satisfaction. In my free time, I enjoy computer programming, plane spotting, reading, 3d modeling, Aviation, playing basketball and soccer, and DJ'ing." ...
