Award-Winning Computer Science Tutors in Park Ridge, IL

...Geometry for a high school program (NHS), and have helped many of my classmates through math and computer science classes. I enjoy anything that has to do with physics, math, and computers. A little personal information about me. I was born at 26 weeks gestation, and because of that, have swam all of my life...

...not only help them find success in their specific problem subjects, but in all areas of academics. I try to teach them problem solving and time management strategies that they will find useful throughout their academic careers. Most importantly, I make myself wholly available to my students, always ready to help them succeed. As a...

...through personal and academic research through the use of primary texts and travel explorations has heightened my interest in these subjects. While I emphasize student-centered instruction (with ample opportunities for differentiation, modeling and scaffolding), I am also a firm believer in the inter-generational transmission of knowledge. Teachers/tutors/learning facilitators have just as much to learn from...

...play off of each other. Calculus is the language that describes physics, and a large part of physics is calculus applied to the world. I like to begin engaging with students by seeing what stumbling blocks they are facing educationally and then finding ways to communicate and work through these ideas and processes. I think...

...in math and physics I find so interesting. An added bonus is being able to help someone meet their classroom goals. I recently earned a B. S. in Physics with Distinction in the Curriculum from U of I at Urbana-Champaign with a Minor in Mathematics. I also took enough math courses out of my own...

...a path paved with many overcame failures. My goal is to help you help me to be foot stool to overcome the failures. I could be an aid in public speaking, placement test prep, computer/robotic help, digital design, world and U.S. history, and much more. Every core high school and elementary topic can be not...

...not here to give all the answers, but rather to help students reach the answers themselves. My end goal is not to help students through one class, or one assignment, but to help them develop the tools they will use for the rest of their academic careers, and hopefully, the rest of their lives.... I would help them find one aspect of it that they can appreciate. For example, it is hard to get engaged in...

...learned various teaching methods when it comes to deciding what is the best approach for teaching such an abstract subject. As an instructor, I am committed to learning more effective teaching practices to help students understand computer science. I strongly believe every student is truly capable of developing independent critical thinking and problem solving skills...
