Award-Winning Calculus Tutors in Oak Park, IL

...very interested in math, how logic-oriented it is and how it applies to almost everything in the real world. Aside from school I enjoy travelling, playing tennis, reading, and watching football on Sundays. I taught have been a teacher two years prior to this: one in middle school and one in high school. I had a great time as a teacher, and I see no reason why tutoring would be any different!

...wholly available to my students, always ready to help them succeed. As a four-year state competitor on my high school's Math Team and previously a Math Team member at my elementary school I have experience both in introductory math courses and in higher-level AP courses, including AP Calculus BC. As the Tutoring Coordinator for my high school's chapter of the National Honor Society, I've spent two years coordinating student tutors and tutoring students myself in...

...Degree in Learning Sciences (which is like a degree in Education with an emphasis on public policy.) I focused mostly on better teaching practices outside the classroom, utilizing technology to teach, and getting girls interested in Math and Science. I have an informal, friendly teaching style. I like to show students that they CAN do physics and math, even if they have a mental block that says they're "bad at it" or "just can't do it."...

...Chicago, Ecuador, and Colombia. While I tutor a number of subjects, I particularly enjoy helping students with standardized test strategy and following their scores as they increase towards their goal. When I tutor, I aim to lead students to an answer by example so that they can see the reasoning involved themselves, rather than me just telling them the answer. The more the students can come to their own solutions, the more memorable the lessons...

...tutor for college students. I believe my strongest subject to tutor is Standardized Test Prep (SAT, ACT, and GRE). Performing well on these tests can truly bolster a student???s application for undergraduate or graduate education, and I truly enjoy helping him or her achieve their best. I am also passionate about tutoring Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, and Calculus. My teaching style is not set in stone; I understand that everyone learns differently and will try to...

...from University of Illinois College of Medicine in May 2019. Throughout my teaching career, I have tutored in various scenarios: Chemistry lecture, Anatomy lab, tutoring center, private tutor, and teaching in Turkey. All these experiences have taught me that teaching revolves around mentoring and friendship. I hope to learn from all of you as much as you will learn from me. I firmly believe that success in any field lies in first understanding the concepts...

...love to assist students with ACT, SAT and GMAT test prep. One of the greatest investments you can make is in improving your college/grad school aptitude testing skills, as just a couple hours of study per week can yield enormous results in admittances and scholarships. On the weekend you might find me running with my dog, playing board games with my daughters, snowboarding, or just hanging out with a book. I love learning new languages...

...teach a tough section in a specific math subject is to start with an example and work each part out step by step with the student, while asking guiding questions to have the student work during the learning process. New concepts in math require a lot of background math skills. If a student does not remember those skills from the past, tutoring is a great way to refresh the student's memory and bring them back...

...I also have a huge passion for math. I have loved and excelled at it since elementary school. I'm doing a minor in mathematics at college because I enjoy the subject so much. I try to make sure my students walk away with something from each session. I hold myself to high standards which constantly allows me to grow as a tutor. I am excited to hear from you and help you achieve whatever goals...

...Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama, and the Peruvian Amazon. While I was at Harvard I worked as a peer tutor for biology, chemistry, physics, and Spanish courses; I also taught health education workshop to Boston area high school students. When I am tutoring I feel it is important to both demonstrate problem-solving techniques and then guide students to the point where they can work out the solution and enjoy that moment of insight. I feel like...
