"Hello! My name is Neha and I just finished my first year of medical school at Rush Medical College. I graduated from Northwestern University with a degree in communications, and I am originally from the Chicago suburbs. I've worked with high school students for the past 5 years and absolutely love teaching! In my experience, most students already have the knowledge they need to do well. Teaching is really about building confidence and helping a student tie together bits and pieces they already know to answer a problem."

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.

"Hi all! I'm a recent math/biology double from the University of Chicago making the transition from South- to North-Sider. Over the past eight years, I've worked with students of every age from 12 to 20, both in Miami and here in Chicago.
