Maria: Vernon Hills tutor

Certified Tutor

Hi I'm a recent college graduate navigating this post-grad life as best as possible. In the venture to find my passion I am engaging myself in as many interests as I can - teaching being one of them. I have always had an interest in teaching because the feeling of helping a student achieve their "light bulb" moment is extremely rewarding.

As your tutor I hope to not only help you to understand subject matter but to also inspire a love of education and knowledge.

In addition to teaching I enjoy being a student as well. Currently, I am trying to learn both French and Spanish and every month I try to read a book about a completely new subject.

On my free time - oh wait I have no free time (LOL). That's right, I'm a bit of a workaholic so that means that my schedule is full at all times. I recognize that time is of the essence and therefore I make every effort to be as productive as possible.

I'm also an inspirational quotes nerd! So here I will end with one:

~ "Strive for excellence and success will follow"

Hobbies

*I enjoy spending time with my younger sister. We’re 10 years apart in age so spending time together allows us to understand each other better - it's also an excuse to experience a lot of childhood again. Most of the time we spend together we are baking, shopping, or watching silly videos on YouTube.* *My other hobbies include religious activities and developing spirituality. Spirituality is especially important to me because that is how I deal with any type of stress. It is also my escape from the humdrum of daily life. * *I also have an interest in writing. I just recently began a blog writing about inner beauty and the power of self-confidence. *
