Carefully selected, highly-credentialed Economics tutors in Gleview, IL
"I am currently pursuing a Master's of Education in math at Northwestern University, but my passion for learning and education long precedes my formal degree. Prior to returning to school, I worked in management consulting, where I often needed to explain complex quantitative analysis to clients unfamiliar with the math; this helped me develop the ability to understand and explain various approaches to quantitative concepts, which in turn enables me to identify and address causes of confusion. I love working with students in a one-on-one setting that allows me to adapt my explanations to fit a student's individual needs.." ...

"My main motivation for tutoring is seeing that "a-ha!" moment when a student finally understands a concept with which he or she has been struggling. There is nothing more satisfying!

"I graduated in December 2012 from Arizona State University with degrees in Economics and Jazz Performance. Studying economics has lead me to build high levels of quantitative and qualitative understanding and analysis since the subject requires very strong mathematical and written skills. I love it! Studying math has given me an understanding of the relationships between quantities and how they change as well as logic and sound thinking. I moved to Chicago, IL in February 2013 leaving the heat of Arizona for the cold."

"As a tutor, I like to begin with structured strategies for learning concepts and applying them to new tasks. If working on a school or college subject, I will incorporate the students' own classroom texts with my own additional examples or readings. If working for test prep, I would like to work with the student in his or her own test prep book (I will have the same myself) working through specific strategies for each question. My past tutoring and teaching experiences include working with individual college students on English essay writing, Intro Micro- and Macroeconomics, and 4th-5th grade creative writing." ...

"I'm a physicist with over three years of experience in academic and government research. That means I know calculus inside and out, and I especially what it means in real world terms.

Math is the language the universe speaks, and I'm very excited to learn about that as a physicist. As a tutor, I hope I can share some of that enthusiasm with you.." ...

"I am a graduate of economics and Spanish at Lawrence University. I love all things economics, especially environmental and natural resource economics.
