I have always enjoyed helping and teaching. I love connecting with students and watching them learn. My main schooling background is in music performance and as a part of that I have taken a pedagogy class on effective one on one teaching methods, After graduating college, I felt called to help people rather than continue in music performance and have been working at a ministry in the Naperville area along with tutoring.

I have over twenty years of teaching and tutoring experience. For 14 years I taught career and technical education courses at the high school level. I have also worked as a home-bound teacher, and substitute teacher in varying subjects.I have high expectations for student achievement and stress that school is a place for learning. I believe that it is important to show the students that what they learn in the classroom transfers into the real world.Students are encouraged to express their knowledge in a variety of ways, which encompass all learning styles. I will use many different techniques to bring instruction to an individualized level. In order for student achievement to occur, teachers must be aware of the different learning styles. I support each student's learning with positive reinforcement and give suggestions for improvement a job well-done.

A strong education is one of the most valuable assets a person can haveit builds an intuition about the world that acts as an internal compass in daily life. Learning is not about knowledge, it's about understanding.For me, tutoring in ACT test prep is not just about teaching the material that a student may come across on testing day; it's about helping a student to access the best possible education and invest in their own future.I am a recent architecture graduate from the Illinois Institute of Technology with a passion for learning and exploration. I have teaching experience as a private tutor and university teaching assistant.

I tutor math to all ages! :) Math is a bizarre, intricate, and beautiful subject; and I hope that by the end of our sessions, you too can see the joy in mathematics.I'm majoring in Mathematics Education, and plan to teach High School Math when I graduate. Past subjects I've tutored include Algebra, Geometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, SAT Math, and everything in between.Math is nothing to be scared of! Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. :)

Having graduated from the University of Michigan with a Bachelors of Science in Mechanical Engineering, my favorite subjects to tutor are Algebra, Calculus and Physics. My general tutoring philosophy is based in first principles learning - I encourage the student to discover how and why something is the way it is through questions and suggestions. Since the appearance of COVID-19 and the stress it has caused on the average American classroom, I have had a desire to help students learn and grow through supplemental tutoring. Education, particularly in math and science, is incredibly important and I hope to inspire students to not only excel in the classroom, but also take what they're learning into the world at large. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, playing soccer, (more recently) cooking, and managing my investment portfolio.

I am a fourth year at The University of Chicago pursuing a degree in Neuroscience, Psychology, and Pre-Medicine. I enjoy teaching in all subjects, as I believe knowledge and instruction can improve anyone's chances of success. I am professional, well-informed, and willing to work with students and parents to determine how best to individualize their education to their strengths and weaknesses. I enjoy video games, hiking, swimming, and camping, and have learned through these activities that staying energetic, focused, and active are essential parts of my life and teaching style.

Hi! My name is Mercy and I am currently a first-year student at MIT studying computer science and neuroscience. As of right now, I am pre-med and hope to become a pediatric dermatologist.I love working with kids and have a wide breadth of tutoring, teaching, and mentoring experience. For example, all throughout high school, I served as a volunteer at church, at my local library, and at Swedish Covenant Hospital in the Pediatric Unit. This allowed me to see a lot of different perspectives and it afforded me the opportunity to work with kids in different areas.Beyond this, I was a peer tutor in high school through the National Honor Society for English, Spanish, Calculus, Trig, and many more subjects. I also worked at Mathnasium for a year and a half where I taught subjects ranging from arithmetic to pre-calculus and worked with kids ages 5-17.Currently, I am the social activities chair and a mentor for an organization called MIT CodeIt. This program seeks to close the gender gap in technology by teaching programming fundamentals to girls and non-binary students in the Greater Boston Area. Through CodeIt, I have been able to continue growing my teaching skills and my passion for youth STEM access.Outside of teaching, I enjoy sewing, reading, and am on the MIT Cheerleading team (go tech!)I can't wait to work with you!

I always try to learn using Einstein's approach to understanding: "If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it enough." In my tutoring , I try to impart that same philosophy to my students.

I have taught high school and college level course for over a decade. I believe that there are common themes that students posses that can impede their learning. A key element is self confidence in their ability to learn. I believe in building up a student's confidence as they learn a subject so they can retain the information and can apply it in real world scenarios.

As your tutor, I am here to help you reach your goals, no matter if you're shooting for a better ACT reading score or to conquer some tricky French conjugations. I will provide expertise in both English and French and use my tutoring experience and graduate studies in education to help you succeed.When working with a student, I aim to identify their learning style and strengths and use this information to maximize outcomes. My teaching strategies are flexible, allowing me to adapt to whatever my students bring to the table. I also believe in the power of setting goals. When students have a clear vision of what they hope to gain out of tutoring, sessions become more effective and students see results more quickly. Finally, I strive to take complex problems and make them simple for students, with clear explanations and helpful tips and tricks.In 2013, I graduated with honors from the University of Virginia with a double major in French and foreign affairs. While at UVA, I spent six months in Lyon, France, published a research paper in French, and took French graduate courses. As a foreign affairs major, I crafted research and response papers and earned excellent marks on my grammar and writing style. During my undergraduate years, I switched over from being my family's French tutor and English grammarian to a volunteer ESL tutor. For three years, I tutored refugees and French adults in English. In summer 2014, I was accepted to study language education at DePaul University. My goal is to ultimately become a secondary French and English language teacher.
