I have been a college instructor for 10 years and take pride in my work. I have watched hundreds of my students walk across their stage at graduation with tears in my eyes. My favourite moments include when they introduce me as the instructor that never gave up on them.

I'm a highly skilled, professional tutor with over 20 years experience. I have an exceptional ability to teach math to students with severe learning challenges. I make all levels of math understandable and foster confidence in the student. I'm also expert in SAT/ACT test preparation and high school admission tests. I have a BA in Chemistry from The University of Chicago and a PhD from Northwestern University. I'm a former research scientist. I enjoy tutoring and have the gift of teaching.

Karin McKie, MFA, compiles curriculum and personalizes teaching for a broad spectrum of students. I know there is no better, nor more crucial, calling than helping learners communicate their voices and realize their educational dreams. I specialize in tutoring all standardized tests, including the LSAT, SAT, PSAT, ACT, GRE, HSPT, ISEE, Accuplacer, STAAR, TOEFL/IELTS, ASVAB, all AP/IB English and history classes, and more. I also created and published a simple reading annotation system and related strategies specifically to tackle timed tests, as well as teaching critical reading, comparative literature, public speaking, and theater. As a professional writer and editor, I coach students in persuasive writing for schoolwork, college application and supplemental essays, internship and job applications, and the like. For decades, I've taught and lectured at universities, schools, and with individuals in Chicagoland and the Bay Area, and to online students of all ages around the world. I customize study plans with learners and their advocates to utilize existing abilities and add new techniques to reach personal and scholastic goals. I have a BS in Communications and Theater, and an MFA in Creative Writing. I have completed Continuing Education courses at Stanford, Northwestern and DePaul Universities. I'm a professional features writer and culture critic. I've edited Perspective design journal and Reed literary magazine and have performed memoir essays I've written on Chicago Public Radio. I come from a family of teachers and was fortunate to grow up at the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History, where my anthropologist mom was Education Director. Since early childhood, I've been immersed in multicultural and ELL education. I've devoted my personal and professional time to diversity and storytelling, starting at public TV station WETA in my hometown outside Washington, D.C., where I was certified as a trainer with Sesame Street's Preschool Education Project. I've also taught creativity and teambuilding through improvisation to all ages (as well as creating a kids summer camp), reading for the SAG Foundations BookPALS (Performing Artists for Literacy in Schools) program, plus reading and writing skills to at-risk students through the Park District's Kraft Great Kids Program. I've assisted many of my arts marketing clients, including Barrel of Monkeys and Kidworks Touring Theatre, with youth literacy programs at schools and libraries throughout the Windy City.

I have a bachelor's of science in mathematics from the University of Illinois Chicago. Additionally, I've tutored for three years, have extensive experience teaching each of the following subjects: K-8 mathematics, Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus 1-3, AP Computer Science A, AP Computer Science Principles, AP Statistics, and AP Physics 1, and have a year of experience providing SAT and ACT prep (all sections). After graduating, I've continued to find fulfillment in enriching students' learning experiences by making mathematics easier to understand. During sessions, I prefer to build conceptual understanding through collaborative problem-solving exercises. I tend to employ a "guided discovery" teaching approach and adjust my pace in accordance with the student's comfort with the material.

As a dedicated language tutor with several years of experience, I bring both expertise and enthusiasm to every lesson. I specialize in Chinese, Japanese, and basic Arabic, and I have had the privilege of guiding students of diverse ages and backgrounds through their language-learning journeys.

I received a B.S. in Neuroscience from Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland. After graduating, I moved to Nashville where I worked in a lab at Vanderbilt University Medical Center for a year. I then earned my PhD in Biomedical Science at Northwestern University where my thesis focused on developing a gene therapy for Parkinson's disease. I love teaching all things science!

I love teaching and know how to make teaching fun as well as effective. I have a positive outgoing demeanor which enables me to relate well to children of all ages and abilities.I have taught all elementary school grades, levels and subjects. My expertise is in teaching reading and language arts. My last teaching job was teaching second grade in the Gifted Program at Bell School in Chicago. I also have experience teaching learners who need extra support. I have been certified to teach in New Jersey, Ohio and Illinois. In Illinois I have been certified as an early education teacher as well as a teacher for grades up to grade 9. In conjunction with my library degree from the University of Chicago I wrote a thesis analyzing children's literature.

My passion for tutoring stems from my experience as a TA, where I discovered that effective teaching goes beyond just delivering content; it's about building relationships and instilling confidence in students. With over two years of tutoring experience in math and computer science, I focus on fostering an interactive learning environment where students actively engage with the material. I believe in the power of practice over passive learning, guiding students to identify their challenges and develop effective study habits. As a National Merit Scholar, I've honed my own test-taking strategies, which I enjoy sharing for SAT prep as well. I'm excited to support you on your academic journey!

I'm Shravan, an MS4 at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. I know firsthand how overwhelming the MCAT and med school admissions process can feelbut I also know how to simplify it and make it work for you. I scored in the 99th percentile on the MCAT and received over 20 interviews and 11 offers during my admissions cycle. My success wasn't about grinding endless hoursit was about efficient studying, strategic planning, and targeted improvements. Too many students waste time on passive review, random resources, and ineffective test-taking strategies. My goal is to help you cut through the noise and focus on what actually moves the needle. What I Offer: MCAT Tutoringcontent review, test-taking strategies, and a study plan that fits your needs CARS CoachingI'll help you break down passages, recognize patterns, and approach questions with confidence Application Advisingfrom AMCAS strategy to personal statements, secondaries, and interview prep, I'll help you craft a standout application Personalized ApproachI've worked with students from all backgrounds, and I tailor my coaching to fit your strengths and challenges

My name is Anudeep Mangu, and I hold a Doctorate in Materials Science and Engineering from Stanford University. With almost a decade of tutoring and mentorship experience, I specialize in Physics, particularly in AP Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism. I am also comfortable teaching Algebra and Calculus. My teaching philosophy centers on fostering a deep understanding of concepts by starting with the foundational "why" behind each topic. I believe that connecting complex ideas to students' interests enhances their learning experience. My goal is to create a supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and exploring challenging concepts. I am passionate about helping students grasp the principles that underpin our modern world, and I find joy in guiding them through the problem-solving process. In my spare time, I enjoy exploring new technologies and concepts in science, which continually enriches my tutoring approach.
