I'm a 4th year at the University of Chicago, and I love teaching. I'm elated to help others learn and gain confidence in subjects that may not be their strong suit today. Also, I want to give students the tools to succeed in subjects outside of what we directly cover.

Elementary School Math Tutor • +14 Subjects

I recognize the significance of interaction and dialogue within teaching; something I learned from working at Kumon. I tutored students during the summer and the holidays. By doing this, I received a passion for teaching. Currently, I am receiving my BA in Secondary Education for Teaching of History. Through this, I aim to give students as many learning opportunities and experiences as possible in order to help them engage in their studies.

Christopher

Algebra Tutor • +35 Subjects

I am a 2014 graduate of Taylor University. I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology, with minors in biology and chemistry. I did this with the goal of attending medical school. Upon graduating college, I worked full-time as a math tutor in the inner city of Chicago. After this excellent opportunity, I attended medical school at Rosalind Franklin University, where I am currently in my fourth year. Throughout my time in medical school, I have been active in tutoring students in a wide variety of subjects. Therefore, I bring around ten years worth of tutoring experience. Through tutoring everything from English composition to general chemistry, I have fostered a skill of working with individuals to help them understand a wide variety of concepts. I am passionate about meeting students where they are, and working through concepts that they may have a difficult time understanding. As a student of the sciences, I enjoy working with individuals on biology and chemistry. Additionally, I enjoy assisting individuals in the writing process, having experience working at the Taylor University Writing Center. In my spare time, I enjoy listening to music, running and following Chicago sports, particularly the Chicago Bulls and Cubs.

Algebra Tutor • +13 Subjects

I am a graduate of the University of Chicago. I have recently received my Master's degree in Physics. I am currently pursuing research in Quantum field theory and in particular Phenomenology. I am also interested in General relativity and Cosmology. I have completed my undergraduate education at the National Institute of Technology ,Calicut. I have started teaching Physics and Mathematics for high school students voluntarily in my neighborhood after my undergraduate education and I have helped them to prepare well for the JEE (Joint entrance examination, India) examination. I always found teaching Physics extremely satisfying. I am almost equally interested in Music and Poetry. I have learnt Indian Classical music and practice it whenever I am free. I usually spend most of my time either reading or singing.

Academic Coaching Tutor • +66 Subjects

Hello! I'm a 10+ year teaching and tutoring professional specializing in math, text anxiety, and general help. I have worked with SAT, ACT, GED, college essays, and more. Basically, I enjoy helping students figure out where they are stuck and helping them get unstuck. Most people are only missing a few small pieces of the foundation (in any subject), and once they get it, they are off and running. My area of expertise is getting students moving again.

Tyler

Anatomy Tutor • +33 Subjects

I graduated from Marquette University in May 2015. During my attendance there I majored in biological sciences and worked in both their macro and micro-biology labs, the latter of which I have a published paper for my work. While at Marquette I also tutored. I think it is extremely important for tutors to be able to help their students learn in what ever way best allows for them to understand the material. Every student has a different learning type and it is up to their tutor to figure out what that type is and apply teaching styles that will benefit that individual. Besides working as a microbiologist I also am a high school hockey coach at Notre Dame College Prep in Niles, IL. I am a huge Black Hawk fan and definitely believe Ovechkin is better than Crosby. I have flexible hours and am willing to work as much as needed to help people understand their material, especially since science does not always contain easy concepts to understand.
