Carefully selected, highly-credentialed Physics tutors in Northbrook, IL
" I obtained my law degree from the Indiana University Maurer School of Law in Bloomington, Indiana. Prior to law school, I earned my bachelor's degree in Bioengineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and worked as a medical equipment technician during my semester breaks. As a lawyer, it is not only my job to advocate my client's position, but to counsel my client. Counseling involves taking concepts that can be abstract or counter-intuitive, and making sure the client appropriately understands the concepts. My experiences working as a lawyer and equipment technician have taught me how to distill difficult ...

"I have tutored high school, junior high and elementary school students in math and physics for nearly 10 years. I am enthusiastic about my job and I love having the ability to help students in their academic careers, and to be able to instill the same enthusiasm I have about science into my students. Working one-on-one with a student is a great opportunity to really focus on the individual's academic needs or talents, and allows the tutor to be able to provide exactly what the student needs to progress in his or her academic career. I have taught for University of Maryland University College for the past two years in Greece." ...

"While a senior at Hillsdale, I was a part of the mathematical honor society Kappa Mu Epsilon, and tutored other upper level mathematics students. While at Loyola University Chicago, pursuing a Master's, I have worked at the tutoring center, taught a college class, and tutored one-on-one. While I enjoyed both one-on-one tutoring and teaching a large class, I enjoy small groups the most. With a small group, I am able to encourage the students to not only find the answers themselves, but also allow some students to help others."

"I've tutored at Penn State's Learning Center as well as students at home. My passion for education comes through in my teaching methods, as I believe that all students have the ability to learn a subject as long as it is presented to them in a way in which they are able to grasp. I use both analytical as well as graphical methods or a combination of the two as needed to cater to each student. Having both an Engineering and Architecture background, I am able to explain difficult concepts to either a left or right-brained student, verbally or with visual representations." ...
