Award-Winning Organic Chemistry Tutors serving Skokie, IL

I look forward to see my students get from the point of being lost to the uh-huh moment. I specialize in math based subjects where I enjoy to see how simple math and in some cases - a little complex :) can solve world problems from economics to engineering , etc. I believe that once students realize the application of math in real life, they will strive to become excellent in the subject.

...University level teaching experience in Chemistry, Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry. I love tutoring people because it helps keep key concepts fresh in my head. Not everything you learn in school will be used, but some of it will be! And you don't know which parts until much much later. I focus on imparting understanding to my students. I detest rote memorization. Conceptual understanding will help you ace tests in this course and the ones after...

...I am constantly learning more and am amazed by the questions students ask me that urge me to keep learning. I also enjoy tutoring en Espanol which I learned from my parents growing up and continued to learn throughout high school. My tutoring philosophy is: the struggle is good! So often we students get frustrated learning difficult concepts. When we embrace the struggle and work hard, true learning happens and it feels so good! I...

...resourceful educator. I understand each student is unique, and believe every student can reach their full potential with the right assistance. I deeply care if the students really understand the materials or new concepts, and always encourage them to not give up. I have taken advanced level science classes such as genetics, organic chemistry, etc. Also, I have taken an educational course such as Learning across Lifespan and Educational Psychology. These different experiences shape me...

...assistant for general chemistry, and cadaver dissection team member. Through the experience of being a student and a tutor, I have learned the unique challenges the science student encounters. As a student athlete in both high school and college, I understand the difficulties of time management and the importance of maintaining success in the classroom. Attending a small college allowed my passion for biology and chemistry to flourish through the close relationships I made with...

...lifted me up and inspired me to work harder, learn from my failures, and believe in myself. I hope to be a guiding presence in the life of my students, helping them achieve their goals while developing their academic prowess.

...Arianna. I was born in Caracas, Venezuela and moved to Miami, FL at a young age. I attended college for two years before transferring to the University of Michigan- Ann Arbor where I earned my B.S. in Biomolecular Science. I am currently a high school chemistry teacher in the city of Chicago. I love to help others and tutoring is a way to have a small impact on such an important aspect of society, education.

...in Biology, graduating Magna Cum Laude. I am working as an Emergency Department Technician while I prepare to go to graduate school to become a Physician Assistant. I love to learn and enjoy helping others find the satisfaction in growing and achieving their goals through learning. I believe it's important to learn the student's preferred learning style (visual/tactile/auditory) and adjusting the material to match the style. One's mind, once stretched by a new idea, never...

I graduated Washington University in St. Louis in 2018 with a Biology major and Healthcare Management minor. I am currently a 4 th year medical student at University of Illinois with a more relaxed schedule until June of 2023. I believe in the philosophy of being a life-long learner and I enjoy helping others better understand and enjoy material. In my free time, I enjoy playing soccer, chess, watching NBA and attending house music concerts.

Hi! I am Marybeth. I received a B.S. in Biology as well as a M.S. in Biotechnology from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Science is fun and I like to help others be excited about it as well! I am currently pursuing a DMD/PhD at the University of Illinois at Chicago College of Dentistry, anticipating to graduate in 2019.

...University of Illinois at Chicago. I have enjoyed teaching at the college level as a TA in many chemistry courses and have privately tutored high school chemistry, algebra, geometry, physics, financial literacy, and test prep (ACT, SAT, SAT Chemistry Subject Test). When I am not conducting research or tutoring, you can find me being a mentor for Science Club at the Boys and Girls Club, enjoying the outdoors, or spending time with friends or my...

...there, i recently moved to Chicago for family reasons. Teaching really is my passion and nothing gets me more excited as an educator than having a student tell me they are excited about the material. Unfortunately, however, chemistry is often perceived to be impossible to understand and completely irrelevant. My goal as a tutor is to ensure that when students leave my sessions, they see that neither of these perceptions is accurate. Specifically, I stress...

I was introduced to VT by a friend. I love interacting with students and share my knowledge with them, watch them learn subjects and succeed. I enjoy the results that we get out of our shared effort.

...in science, but I'm looking to make extra money. I was a Tutor in college for a couple of years working with high school and college students on a large array of topics, I'm looking to put my skills back to the test to help you in school! I am a fantastic math tutor because my career is in science, when people say "but who is going to use math in real life?" I always...

...Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, majoring in Molecular and Cellular Biology has exposed me to a rigorous curriculum that has prepared me to take on the challenges most young students have academically. Aside from that, I have over 4 years of tutoring experience in the sciences, math, and reading between elementary, high school, and even college environments. Thank you for taking the time to read my statement. I hope you allow me to demonstrate my philosophy in...

...as a chemistry laboratory teaching aide where I instructed ASU students about the fundamentals of various topics which included equilibrium theory, thermodynamics, kinetics, electrochemistry, nuclear chemistry, and descriptive chemistry. I also spent some time as an undergraduate researcher in a neurodegenerative lab investigating Alzheimer's disease and learning valuable techniques that incorporated basic chemistry, math, and writing proficiency. I promoted STEM related topics to underprivileged youth by mentoring them using lectures and hands-on activities including neurophysiology,...

...students both one on one as well as group sessions. In addition, I have been an organic chemistry class liaison in which I taught a group of 10-15 students working on different chemistry problems as a group and answering their questions for 1 year. I have also odd private tutoring on the side and have done online tutoring with BrainFuse, which includes tutoring students from K-12 the grade in various subjects such as math and...

...2018 from Stanford University. At Stanford, I won several teaching awards both at the departmental and university level for my work as a TA. I'm excited to tutor students of all levels in chemistry! In my mind, succeeding in chemistry isn't about memorizing equations or reactions. Chemistry is learning a new language. It's mastering a new way of approaching the world. My focus when tutoring is to help students break through the barriers when speaking...

...The University of Chicago. I passed my oral and written exams, and selected a thesis project of measuring oxygen isotope ratios in organic compounds in meteorites (to determine if these compounds came from interstellar space or were synthesized "locally.") Late in life, however, I was blessed with the birth of twins, James and Margaret, and I decided to leave the University to raise my children. In sum, I would say that I love to teach...
