Laurel: Skokie Social Studies tutor
Certified Social Studies Tutor in Skokie, il
My goal as a tutor is to help give student context for the material they're working on. I believe that if a student understands the importance of a given subject and why they need to learn it, then learning will feel more relevant and students will become more engaged. Most importantly though, I never want my students to be afraid to ask questions!
