As a passionate tutor with a Bachelor's in Computer Science from DePaul University, I have over 2 years of experience helping students excel in mathematics and computer science. My teaching philosophy centers around fostering a supportive learning environment where students feel empowered to ask questions and explore concepts deeply. I strive to connect with each student on a personal level, tailoring my approach to their unique learning styles and goals. Witnessing my students grow in confidence and understanding is incredibly rewarding, and I am committed to guiding them on their academic journeys.

I am a Math Teacher at a High School. I have taught 4th, 6th, 7th, 8th and High School Math. I have a Master's in Development Economics so I can teach Economics too. My goal is to uplift my students and get them to the next level in math and life.

After graduating from DePaul University with my Bachelor's degree in English Literature, I then went on to receive my Master's degree in Secondary Education from Saint Joseph's University. I became a high school English teacher in Newark, NJ following an excellent experience coordinating an after-school tutoring program in Cincinnati, OH. As a tutor, a teacher, and a mother, I am committed to the world of education. It has been most rewarding to tutor my students in English, literature, and writing. I firmly believe that students learn best when engaging in material that is meaningful to them. I help my students to find relevancy in what they're learning, and I always tailor my lessons to meet the individual needs of the student. Outside of education, I enjoy practicing meditation, cooking, and expressing myself through bonsai and wood burning art.

I am a recent graduate of DePaul University with a BA in English Literature and a minor in Professional Writing. I am also currently working on my MA in English Literature, to be completed in 2021. I have worked as a tutor at my university's writing center for the last two years, collaborating with students on a variety of different written works. I find that helping students to develop their voices through writing is one of the most rewarding things in the world.

I grew up in Chicago's Rogers Park and, later, Morton Grove, IL where I attended Niles West High School. After graduating, I enrolled in the Chemical Engineering program at the Illinois Institute of Technology. While an undergraduate, I was a peer tutor in General Chemistry. My favorite subjects in college always involved using computational models of chemical processes; pursuit of this niche sub-discipline afforded me an opportunity of a semester at the Brookhaven National Laboratory. Upon obtaining my Bachelor of Science Degree, I continued my education to obtain a Master's degree in Chemistry. Subsequently, employed by various companies in the industry, I worked in the fields of Semiconductors, Natural Gas and Energy, and provided technical consultancy to instrument companies and universities. Perhaps as a tribute to experience with tutoring as an undergraduate, and lecturing Chemistry as a graduate student, I had been especially adept at taking a complex scientific or mathematical concept and breaking it down to the level of comprehension by a lay person or a professional of varying discipline -- a precursor to my present occupation. After transitioning from the industry to education, I was fortunate to discover passion and fulfillment in helping students achieve their personal goals, be it basic education, performance in math and science, standardized testing, high school equivalency attainment or self-improvement through further education and more lucrative career options. In addition to being a tutor, I volunteer at the Howard Area Community center as an Adult Basic Education Tutor and at Horizons for Youth, working with at-risk urban youth.

I believe that learning is personal and ought to be personalized- as a passionate student with ADD myself, I know how frustrating it is to have the desire to learn and comprehend new concepts but need help outside of the conventional classroom to do so. I hope to provide this help to my fellow student scholars!

Hello! My name is Phoebe (she/they) and I am recent graduate from DePaul University with a Bachelors of Art. My degree specialized in art and marketing, but I have extensive experience in writing and reading comprehension. My writing has been published across many platforms, including online blogs and physical magazines.My background in teaching has been brief but extraordinarily rewarding. I have taught remotely at Norris, Marrs, and McMillan Middle Schools in Omaha, Nebraska, where I devised lesson plans and instructed classrooms for after school programs in art and entrepreneurship. My biggest accomplishment does not lie with the lessons themselves, but with connecting with each student on a personal level. I believe that in writing, communicating your own unique voice through word is of the upmost importance, and it is my goal as a tutor to help that voice shine. bell hooks once wrote in 'Teaching to Transgress,' "As a classroom community, our capacity to generate excitement is deeply affected by our interest in one another, in hearing one another's voices, in recognizing one another's presence." This is the standard that I hold myself to in education.

I am a graduate of DePaul University. I received my Bachelor of Sciences in Secondary Education with a focus on Mathematics. Since graduation, I have worked at two very well known schools in Chicago, Illinois, as a Mathematics teacher. I have taught Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra II with Trigonometry. During college, I also tutored English as a Second Language to adult learners. I am fluent in Spanish and learned a bit of French. I am passionate in tutoring in any concept that I am familiar with because I truly believe that every student has the potential to fully accomplish their goals, regardless of the obstacles in place. I love working with students because at every of my previous encounters we established a rapport that assisted in achieving remarkable advancements. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my beloved family, cooking, scrapbooking, and creating do it yourselves arts and crafts.

The tutor and student relationship should always be a positive, interactive, and creative experience that continues to grow with the student's academic ambitions. In my eyes, the word "student" can easily be replaced with "thinker" or "individual," because everyone is unique when it comes to their perspective and thought-process about the world around them.In my view, the best part about my approach to tutoring is that "we" get to decide what personal practices will create the greatest learning experience for you. Of course, the final product of any assignment that you are given needs to be exactly as your school teacher wants it. But the roads, the turns, and the pace that we take to complete that finished product is entirely up to you! If your assignment was to create a painting, I will bring the paint and the brushes - but you will paint the masterpiece with your own ideas.I promise to do my very best to help you get the job done and learn some new critical thinking skills along the way. I am enjoyable to work with, and I promise that you will feel proud about the work that we do after every session!Sincerely,James

I look forward to working with you.

As a writing tutor and Composition and Literature professor at Wright College in Chicago for twelve years, I was dedicated to helping students at all stages of the writing process. I can help during the beginning stages when a writer may be confused about an assignment, all the way to the end when they need to polish an essay before submitting it, and all the moments in between. I cover a variety of topics and writing techniques, including thesis development, finding/citing sources, brainstorming, and proofreading for syntax, grammar, clarity, and tone. I have tutored students across the entire college curriculum, not just English: History, Biology, and even tech classes are well known to me. I also specialize in working with ESL students and high school students doing AP English Language and Composition. My educational background is a Master's degree from DePaul University in Writing and Publishing and a Bachelor's from the University of Illinois at Chicago in Creative Writing. My background, both as a student and a teacher and tutor, has led me to tailor my approach to meet each student's unique needs. I want to create the best learning experiences I possibly can, and that means listening to what my students need!

I taught Gifted Enrichment at the high school level for 5 years and assisted in a curriculum redesign. I have also taught gifted elementary students. This is a passion of mine though I am happy to teach any student who needs to improve academically.

I received my BA in Philosophy in June of 2020 from DePaul University and am currently attending the University of Michigan Law School. I have been tutoring college students in writing, rhetoric, and argumentative strategies for three years at DePaul's Writing Center and have independently worked with high school english students from local Chicago prep schools. I love tutoring because I think that all people are able to benefit from collaborative learning and thinking. I tutor in writing, english, and law school prep materials (LSAT, personal statement writing, application advice, etc.).My favorite subject is anything related to writing because I believe that writing is such a personal and creative outlet, no matter the subject!

As a dedicated tutor with a Master's degree in Data Science from DePaul University, I am passionate about guiding students in Business Analytics, Python, SQL, R, Discrete Math, Geometry, Algebra, and Mandarin Chinese. With over 2 years of tutoring experience, I strive to create a supportive environment that encourages curiosity and fosters a love for learning. My teaching philosophy emphasizes interactive and personalized approaches, ensuring that each session addresses the unique needs and learning styles of my students. I take great pride in witnessing their progress and growing confidence, which fuels my commitment to continuous improvement in my methods. Outside of tutoring, I explore new technologies and languages, enriching my ability to connect with students on multiple levels.

Devoted instructor with outstanding knowledge of curriculum design and deep understanding of writing theory and pedagogy. Proven success in involving all types of students in secondary and college classrooms and working tirelessly for student success. Conscientious teaching professional dedicated to educating people in composition, literature, and performance courses. Committed to developing engaging curriculum to meet varied learning needs in diverse communities.

I love to share my knowledge of the political process and my love for history and philosophy with others. Language is very important to me and I hate it when words are mispronounced and misspelled. My interests are singing, movies, history and television, as well as politics and current events.

My passion for tutoring stems from a deep-seated desire to help others grasp complex concepts that have shaped my own academic journey. With a Master's in Business Administration and a Bachelor's in Economics, I have successfully navigated all three levels of the CFA exam. I believe in fostering a supportive learning environment where each student's unique needs are addressed, allowing them to build confidence and achieve their goals. My experience in tutoring CFA subjects has taught me the importance of patience and tailored explanations, as I enjoy guiding students through their challenges and celebrating their successes. Witnessing that moment of understanding is incredibly rewarding, and it fuels my commitment to education.

I firmly believe that with the proper direction, anyone can learn once they accept the fact that true knowledge can only be achieved by struggling and persevering through the challenges that are presented. I am a compassionate lifelong learner with years of experience in the areas of training and personnel development, who understands the significance of connecting life experiences to the acceptance of new information. I have a bachelor's degree in finance from DePaul University and over 14 years of management experience. Thus, my ability to identify problem area and help students to relate the subject matter to something that they already have an awareness of, is the skill that makes me a great tutor. I'm currently in the midst of a career change working toward a master's degree in secondary education, in the area of mathematics, so that I can actively join the fight to help educate today's youth. I have a passion for teaching math in a way that can be understood in laymen terms so that the beauty of the subject and its relevance to all facets of life can be appreciated. I have worked with high risk elementary students who were performing well below grade level and helped them to meet and/or exceed the required standards by year's end. My teaching philosophy utilizes the backward design method where we begin with the ideal result then we review all of the prerequisite knowledge, skills, and techniques that will be need to solve the problem. With this method the teacher serves as a facilitator who guides the student through the process of using the critical thinking necessary for understanding the desired result. Thus the focus if for the student to gain knowledge of what they are doing and why, not just the answer to a question. In addition to my love for teaching I have an affinity for athletics and a passion for photography, therefore I truly appreciate the hard work and dedication that is required to fulfill a challenging goal as well as the beauty of capturing the moment of triumph. So if you need a tutor who can properly identify a problem area, communicate it in a manner that you can understand, relate it to something that you can identify with, then direct you through the process of obtaining the knowledge and skills necessary for comprehending the solution, I'm your man.

Hi! My background includes a Bachelor's degree in English from Roosevelt University, and a Master's degree in Writing and Publishing from DePaul University. In late 2019, I had the opportunity to work as a Graduate Teaching Assistant at the College of Lake County (for an English Composition I class). I also had the honor and privilege of working as a Peer Writing Tutor for DePaul University's Writing Center. I collaborated with both Undergraduate and Graduate students of all studies/disciplines on any writing-based projects, both personal and academic. I provided writing support to clients with the goal of helping them become even more successful writers in school and beyond. Currently, I am working as tutor in a freelance capacity. Over the past year, I have worked with dozens of students on the following platforms: Tutor.com, TutorMe and Smarthinking. I helped clients with brainstorming writing ideas, providing sources, improving writing quality, and developing argumentation skills.I firmly believe that learning should be fun. Nothing motivates learners as much as fun does because it comes from genuine interest from within instead of pressure from others. Students are much more likely to invest extra time in the learning process if they enjoy it.

My goal is to assist students in what they find most difficult to help them achieve their goals. I enjoy getting to know a student's personal interests and hobbies. In doing so, I will get to know their learning preferences and get to use references or analogies to what they already know and use on a regular basis.

I am a law student and scholarship recipient at the University of Texas at Austin, a T14 Law School. In addition, I have a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration with a minor in Economics and Management from DePaul University. I am deeply passionate about helping others, and seeing that incoming and current students get the help they need to succeed in their program. I have tutored hundreds of students for the LSAT, and I believe anyone can achieve their goals with the right mentor by their side. My teaching style is friendly and personable, as I want my students to know that they can ask me anything and be heard. I look forward to helping you achieve your goals!

Want to write and speak with ease, and feel free to communicate all of your critical thoughts clearly in your writing and speech? Who doesn't!?! Well, I plan to help in this endeavor.

I am grateful for the opportunity to encourage, challenge, and inspire students to grow and excel in their studies and academic and intellectual goals.

I first started tutoring general chemistry almost 3 years ago. I prefer to first get to know and understand my students, so I can understand where they need the most focus. From there I make a specialized plan to get them to understand the material, and explain it very simply and thoroughly. My teaching style closes mathces how I teach myself material, and will facilitate students learning independently in the future.In June 2015 I graduated from DePaul University with a Bachelors Degree in Chemistry. I am currently pursuing a Master in Chemical Engineering at Illinois Institute of Technology, with an expected graduation date of May 2017.My favorite subjects to teach are calculus and chemistry. I use these almost every day and know them well. My hobbies and interests outside of tutoring include reading, video games, going to shows, and going out with friends.

I am an educator and mentor dedicated to helping students build confidence, improve performance, and achieve their academic goals.

I also love helping students (and even friends and family sometimes!) craft their arguments and writing in the ways they want. I believe everyone has the ability to become an excellent writer and thinker. Helping people learn how to do that is one of the joys of teaching for me, in part because I always learn something myself. Teaching is, I believe, helping people learn how to teach themselves.Outside of academia, I enjoy watching TV, movies, and sports, especially football, baseball, and soccer. I also like playing soccer and spinning as well as reading fiction, particularly detective novels.

Studying to pass an exam can be stressful. Obtaining skills and techniques to relieve the stress takes a huge weight off your shoulders. This is what I hope to do when I teach students who are looking to get their real estate license.When I received my real estate license in IL over 5 years ago now, I studied on my own and was able to complete the process in about 2 months. I have also been teaching the material in-person and online for almost 3 years.Let's get started on your road to success!

I have been tutoring since high school, when I tutored students in Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, and Chemistry. Since then, I have tutored for four years at the college level in both German and Music Theory/Aural Skills. I have also twice co-taught an intensive one-month long German 101 course, where I designed the lesson plans, and graded homework, quizzes and tests.I am a great tutor because of my broad experience in tutoring many different subjects, so that I have a wide variety of approaches to help all types of students master the material. I also believe that, in my German tutoring especially, I'm very systematic, so that my students have a strong grammar foundation on which to build further skills and concepts. I have also lived in Germany for a year, and am able to bring world-life experiences into tutoring sessions, so that I can instill in my students a desire to learn more of the German language through a glimpse of what is possible once one has a basis in the language. I also have taken German Diction classes because of my background in vocal performance, and this means that I am especially adept at dealing with difficulties in pronunciation, or when students are having trouble hearing the difference between those pesky umlauts!
