As a Ph.D. student in Computational and Applied Mathematics at the University of Chicago, with a Bachelor's in Mathematics from MIT, I am passionate about making mathematics accessible and engaging for all learners. My experience as a teaching assistant for calculus courses has honed my ability to design effective problem sets and lead dynamic recitations, while also providing personalized support through office hours and one-on-one tutoring. I specialize in subjects such as Algebra I & II, AP Calculus, Differential Equations, and Linear Algebra. I strive to create a supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and exploring concepts. My teaching philosophy centers on patience, encouragement, and tailored lessons that align with each student's unique goals and learning style. I am dedicated to helping students build both their mathematical skills and their confidence, ensuring they can tackle challenges with a sense of accomplishment.

I'm planning on applying to PHD programs in media studies soon. I have been in love with learning all my life, and I hope to be a professor one day. In the meantime, when I am free, I spend a lot of time reading, learning french and watching films. I also like to travel whenever possible, and my favorite cities are Istanbul and Paris. I do my best to maintain a friendly, yet disciplined, tutoring style. I know learning can be hard, but it can also be enjoyable, and there is nothing quite like the feeling of being masterful over what was once obscure.

I graduated from the University of Chicago with a triple major in sociology, music, and media arts. I enjoy explaining the nuances of a text based question, whether it involves reading or math, and I am excited to share this passion with others. Throughout my studies, I achieved the status of National Merit Scholar via my PSAT score of 1480/1520, as well as an SAT score of 1580/1600 (a perfect 800 in math). I have also received a perfect score of 5 in classes such as AP Calculus AB, AP US History, and AP Biology. Over the past year, I have worked with middle and high school students on ISEE and SAT test prep in both group and individual settings. I thoroughly enjoy working to fulfill their educational goals, and I look forward to seeing their scores improve over time as a result of our collective dedication. I believe in delving deeply into core concepts to understand the fundamentals of a problem, which I believe is essential to academic growth. I'm looking forward to working with you!

I'm a friendly and dedicated tutor with a PhD in Physics from the University of Notre Dame and over five years of experience helping students at the middle school, high school, and college levels. I work with a wide range of subjects, including all levels of physics, algebra, calculus, linear algebra, differential equations, statistics, and general problem-solving. My approach is straightforward: meet students where they are, explain ideas clearly, and work together through examples until everything clicks. I value building confidence just as much as building skills. Every student learns differently, so I adapt explanations to match the way they think. The most rewarding part of tutoring for me is seeing students go from "I'm stuck" to "I've got this." If you're looking for someone patient, supportive, and genuinely invested in your progress, I'd be happy to help.

I am a graduate of Grinnell College, a private liberal arts college located in Grinnell, Iowa. I have a Bachelor of the Arts in Computer Science from Grinnell's Department of Math and Computer Science. Since graduation I have tutored students of a wide variety of ages and background in a number of subjects. I have tutored middle school students in the Chicago area in Math and science and high school students in advanced Math, chemistry, writing, and helped them prepare for standardized tests for college admittance. I have also tutored adults preparing for academic proficiency tests for their jobs and with GRE prep for those interested in going to graduate school. Additionally I have taught English grammar, reading, and conversational skills to ESL students in Chicago, Ecuador, and Colombia. While I tutor a number of subjects, I particularly enjoy helping students with standardized test strategy and following their scores as they increase towards their goal. When I tutor, I aim to lead students to an answer by example so that they can see the reasoning involved themselves, rather than me just telling them the answer. The more the students can come to their own solutions, the more memorable the lessons will be. In my spare time I enjoy reading, playing skill games like scrabble, bridge, and poker, and outdoor activities like biking, camping, and canoeing when the weather is nice.

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!

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 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.

A student at University of Chicago who scored a 1560 on his SAT, Jason loves sharing all the tips and tricks he has learned over the years doing and teaching the SAT. He can provide all the SAT mock tests that the student needs to practice and succeed in the actual exam. Conducted online, students can expect to go through problems step by step with Jason, using visual learning with customized drills to familiarize themselves with specific concepts. Generally, Jason will tailor his feedback to what the student should work on, both in English and math, and provide examples to show how the student should be working through the problems.

Maryam Garba has a track record of successfully teaching and mentoring students of all ages. She grew up in a family of teachers and this inspired her to take on tutoring from a very young age. Maryam is a certified teacher with 12 years of ESL teaching experience along with 6 years of ACT, SAT, LSAT, and TOEFL tutoring experience. Maryam is extremely passionate about helping all students achieve academic excellence. Over the course of her tutoring career, many of her students have become high school valedictorians, AP scholars, Dean's List awardees, scholarship recipients and published authors. However, she also understands that credentials and grades are not everything. Maryam's goal is to inspire a love for learning in all her students. Maryam holds a Master's Degree in Education from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and a Bachelor of Arts in Human Biology and African Studies from Stanford University.
