I am enthusiastic, punctual, and professional tutor. I'm from the Chicagoland area, where I work full time in corporate strategy and management consulting. I graduated from Niles West High School in Skokie, IL in 2010 and went on to earn my B.A. at Northwestern University in 2014.

Hello! I'm excited to work with anyone who could use some help. I went to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and studied political science. My area of specialty is writing, and I can and will help anyone from Kindergarteners learning how to form sentences with correct syntax to graduate school hopefuls writing personal statements of great importance. Looking for some help on PSAT/ACT/SAT? I can help you develop studying methods to achieve your goals. Are you in K-9 and need help with math (algebra and below)? I'm also your guy. I have experience working with people aged 6-16 through my time as a camp counselor, and I am easy going. Hope to work with you soon!
I am a second year student majoring in Business Administration and Mastering in Finance. I have always been an excellent academic performer as evidenced by my 3.93 GPA. Throughout the years I have tutored classmates and siblings and last semester I got the opportunity to become the Teacher Assistant of Financial Accounting and Economic Analysis of Capital Investments. As a TA, I tutored students on cash flow statements, financial statements, journal entries, annuities, bonds, mortgages, and more. I explained to students where numbers were coming from and helped them logically understand accounting concepts. I am continuing as a TA and also continue tutoring classmates and siblings in Math, Business, Finance, Accounting and Economics. In my spare time I enjoy watching movies and playing baseball.
I am Noah and I'm an actuarial science major at Illinois State University. I'm pretty good at math and science. I also have experience teaching English abroad.
I believe that every student learns differently, and I am dedicated to finding the best way to connect with and support each student that I work with. My 2 years of experience tutoring at my high school and my own rewarding academic journey have given me the tools and the passion to help every student succeed.
Hello! My name is Karen, and I am a Japanese, Spanish, English, and ESL tutor. I have lived and worked locally and abroad, serving both in classroom and translator roles. After receiving my Bachelor of Arts in Spanish from the University of Washington, I worked for the Japanese Exchange and Teaching Program in Fukushima, Japan. Here, I taught English to elementary and junior high students. After this, I spent time working in the Richland and Pasco School Districts as a Japanese coach and substitute teacher. I also spent time with the Columbia Basin College ESL Program, where I was a volunteer ESL tutor. In addition to these classroom roles, I spent time acting as an interpreter for Spanish, Japanese and English lectures on various topics and interpreted for local guides on tours aboard 800-passenger cruise ship run by international non-profit organization on a global peace voyage. I love sharing my passion for teaching, languages, and communication with others, and I look forward to working with you!
I am also majoring in mathematics at Loyola University of Chicago.
I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old electronics, playing Pokemon, or picking at my guitar.
I am an interdisciplinary educator with an Ed.M. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and a B.A. from Dartmouth College. My background is primarily in integrated arts learning and museum education and I specialize in visual arts, history and art history, and object-based learning. In all subjects, I take a creative, inquiry-based and learner-centered approach, designing opportunities for each unique individual to meet their learning goals.
I am a recent graduate from a masters program in biostatistics at Columbia University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in biological sciences, with a focus in neurobiology at Northwestern University. In August, I will be starting a doctoral program in biostatistics at NYU. I was a teaching assistant at Columbia University in my department and also have tutored graduate students and undergraduates privately as well. My primary areas of tutoring are math and statistics coursework in addition to math sections on standardized tests such as the GRE and GMAT. I am very passionate about helping students feel more confident and excited about math. In my spare time, I enjoy running, playing piano, and spending time with friends and family.
I am a graduate of Wesleyan University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with High Honors. With eight years of experience working in education, I've tutored students in math, science, history, and English, as well as helped students prepare for standardized tests. I've guided adults towards passing the US Citizenship Exam and taught English in India, where I lived for six months. Whenever I work with a student I personalize the lessons to fit their particular learning style, since I know every student is unique and having the right fit can make all the difference in making learning fun and effective. My strengths are tutoring the social sciences and humanities, as well as making math and standardized tests approachable to students that normally don't like those subjects. In my spare time I like traveling, spending time in the outdoors (climbing & backpacking), meditation, and playing soccer. Next fall I will be beginning my PhD in Education at Harvard University.
