Molly Rae: Park Ridge tutor

Certified Tutor

I believe every student is born with the ability to add something good to the world, and it's education that helps them get there. Supporting students on their learning journey is one of the most meaningful ways I can contribute to their growth and future impact. I've worked with students in tutoring, classroom, and cross-cultural settings. These experiences have given me the opportunity to connect with learners from diverse backgrounds and adapt my teaching to meet a wide range of needs and learning styles. I earned my degree from Dallas Baptist University. Reading is my favorite subject to tutor because it serves as a passport to many stories, ideas, and places. It opens up a world of imagination and knowledge, and I love helping students unlock that potential. My teaching philosophy is student-first: the student's needs, interests, and learning style should guide instruction. I strive to create a positive and encouraging environment where students feel seen, supported, and motivated to grow.

I enjoy staying active through running and hiking. I also love travelingit gives me the chance to explore new cultures, meet different people, and see the world from fresh perspectives. These experiences often enrich the way I connect with students and approach teaching.
