I became a tutor because I know exactly what it's like to struggle in the classroom. As someone who always needed extra help as a student, I developed a deep empathy for learners who don't catch on right away. I am passionate about helping others overcome academic challenges, and I always go above and beyond to ensure my students get the dedicated, patient support they need to succeed. No matter where you're starting from, we can figure it out together.

Graduated (James Scholar Honors) from the University of Illinois in Engineering Physics and have a Masters in Physics from the same institution. Retiring from industry 2008 I began teaching part-time at the local community college and have been doing so ever since, teaching passionately physics and math. My aim is to give students a good understanding and appreciation of a subject whether a course is in their career field or an elective. During my career in industry, I had become interested in display monitor technology for education and worked leading to development of high-definition display screens. I hold 22 issued patents and many peer reviewed publications. We formed a small company which has produced display products for over 30 years and did joint Research and Development internationally.

I am a hard working student who strives consistently for excellence. I have experience in the field with Computer Science as I have founded my own tech startup. I also have years of experience learning and speaking the German Language. Currently, I am a student at the University of Illinois at Chicago. I am pursuing a double degree with a B.A. in Germanic Studies and a B.S. in Computer Science with a concentration in Software Engineering. I am enrolled in German and Computer Science classes and continue to work on my skills in both areas.My interests include going hiking, studying and speaking German with friends. I also enjoy reading books and articles relating to new technologies, and enjoy reading up on Open Source Software.

In 2017, I graduated from the University of Illinois at Chicago with a B.S. in Physics. I began tutoring while an undergraduate for various programs offered through the college. My experience is mostly with high school students, though I have tutored middle school and college students. I helped students with various math subjects (geometry, algebra, and trigonometry), high school chemistry, and both high school and university level physics.In my experience, most students need multiple "ah-ha!" moments before truly understanding and getting excited about learning the material. And because of this, students are often initially intimidated and discouraged by STEM subjects since it can take so many tries before getting it right. By creating a solid conceptual foundation in these areas, I believe any student is capable of learning this complex material through persistence and maintaining motivation.

I discovered my passion for tutoring during my five years as a graduate student in the physics department at UIC. With my 5 years experience tutoring and teaching at UIC, I am excited to help your understanding!As a result of the ongoing pandemic, I will only be tutoring online for the time being. Thank you!

I graduated magna cum laude from the University of Illinois at Chicago, earning a Bachelor's of Science in Biological Sciences and a Bachelor's of Art in Psychology. As a first generation college student, adjusting to university life was at times challenging. Doing well in school was just important to me as spending time with family, having a social life, and working to support myself. Thankfully, I was able to adapt. Over time I learned little tricks to make studying more efficient; to memorize more information in a shorter period of time. Of course, doing well in school also requires motivation. As your tutor, I can help teach you specific course material as well as more general study techniques that will keep you motivated to learn.As an undergraduate, my primary focus of study was in neurobiology. I have a confident grasp of introductory and intermediate biochemistry, organic chemistry, genetics, and microbiology. Additionally, I am proficient in undergraduate general and cognitive psychology. Currently, I am available to tutor college students in select biology and psychology courses. Additionally, I will be available to high school students preparing to take the ACT. I am confident that together, we can improve your academic performance!

Holding both a Bachelors in History from Connecticut College, and a Masters in Teaching History from University of Illinois Chicago, I have a wide breadth of content knowledge available to help students. Two years of teaching at Evanston Township High School has given me excellent experience working with students and helping them through challenges. I especially enjoy tutoring students in US History, World History, and Civics/Political Science. As a passionate writer, I also have experience coaching students to improve their writing and editing skils, for college essays or their own coursework. When not teaching, I can be found singing in a choir, practicing figure skating, and reading fantasy and science fiction.

I am currently an undergraduate student who is part of the Honors College at the University of Illinois at Chicago. I am pursuing a Bachelors in Science Degree in Neuroscience with a Minor in Music. I am available to tutor students in a large variety of subjects , but I especially enjoy serving as a tutor for mathematics or science-related disciplines. In the past, I have had 2-3 years of experience (online and in-person) tutoring numerous high school students in disciplines as Algebra, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, Biology, and Chemistry. Even when not formally serving as a tutor, I have always felt inclined to provide other students with advice concerning time management skills and studying tips to ensure their prospective academic success.I also enjoy to serve as a test-prep tutor, particular for the ACT and various AP tests. I believe these tests have large implications upon determining one's aptitude for success in college, and, thus, I believe that their importance should not be undermined. Personally, I have also participated as a student in ACT-prep classes to become better educated on useful test-taking strategies and tips. Relatedly, I am also willing to provide advice to younger high school or middle school students regarding how to adapt to college academics, or, in more general terms, college life.As a tutor, I believe it is most vital to be persistent and patient when helping other students. I strive to employ a more independent-tutoring approach, in which I attempt to help a student as sparingly as possible as to allow a student to arrive at a solution mostly on his/her terms. For me, learning and problem-solving require individual insight and reasoning, and, thus, my job as a tutor will encompass helping a student comprehend basic/underlying conceptual principles so that the student can arrive at an answer as independently as possible. Additionally, as a tutor, I will impart knowledge stressing the importance of time management and balancing skills on academic prosperity, and, also, I will attempt to make learning more enjoyable by connecting what a student is being taught to real-world applications.In my spare time, I enjoy watching and playing baseball and tennis, singing, playing the Alto Saxophone, playing the Guitar, and going to the movies.

I am a PhD student in Biological Sciences at the University of Illinois at Chicago working on gene regulation. I believe teaching is an art of simplifying the obvious and I have learnt a great deal about the same by interacting with teachers and students both at the high school level with Chicago public schools and undergraduates at UIC, as I have worked in different capacities as a tutor, TA and an instructor. Every student has a personality and my teaching experience has given me the confidence of managing different personalities, a challenge that I relish and use it to fuel my future learning and that of my students. Apart from research, I enjoy improvising, acting, dancing and volunteering.

Bonjour! Ca va? I graduated from the University of Illinois at Chicago with my bachelor's degree in Psychology and French. I studied and lived abroad in Southern France for four months and I lived in Paris while interning with the French government and social services system! I enjoy speaking and teaching French as well as math! While living abroad, I have learned a lot about their culture and have improved my accent as well!I tutor French and algebra. I love teaching these subjects because I find languages very useful in our lives. Without language, how would we communicate with one another? I love math as well because I love understanding the concept behind a problem and being able to use that to figure out the rest of the problems.I am passionate about helping students because I believe they are the future. Students have the greatest possibility and opportunity to make a change in themselves and the world. By gaining more knowledge, we an positively affect our environment and influence the people around us.During a mission trip, I taught second grader classes about the government, politics, commuit, and taxes to name a few. At the Junior Achievement facility, I taught fifth graders about entrepreneurship, workplace readiness, and financial literacy. Additionally, I was a math and science tutor everyday in high school. These experiences set a foundation to enable me to effectively teach students in different disciplines.

I am a professional licensed Chinese language teacher who promotes a culture in language learning. I have taught over 1000 students from all age levels. Making sure learning is engaging and student-oriented proved to better learning outcomes for enrichment or test prep. I believe learning a foreign language is a way to understand its culture and history. I am happy to bring this experience for you.

I have a master's degree in mathematics and over a decade of in person classroom teaching. I also have a bachelor of science degree with over a years course work in both biology and chemistry. I have hands on experience in these fields from working in both biology and chemistry laboratory settings. I worked as administrator over a home school, teaching students from Kindergarten thru 12 grade, in math, science, and language arts and developing curricular materials. I have found from my teaching experiences that students learn best from active participation in the learning process, and are often encouraged with material that is practical and meaningful. My main goal in working with students who are having problems with a particular subject matter is to simplify the material as much as needed so that a student will get to the root of their difficulties and work from there to obtain a strong foundation of the subject material. I am not rigid in my approach. If a particular manner of subject presentation is not helping a student, I will use a different method to facilitate the learning process.

I received my PhD in Psychology/Behavioral Medicine from the University of Miami after receiving my M.S in Clinical Health Psychology from UM, and B.A. in Psychology and B.S. in Biology from the University of Illinois at Chicago. Consequently, my favorite subjects to tutor are psychology and biology! I also love tutoring writing as I have had extensive experience with academic writing throughout my career. I have taught at the high school, undergraduate, and graduate level and thoroughly enjoy working with students. I have always loved learning and I love sharing my love of learning with others!

As a cybersecurity expert with a Master's degree in Information Security from Carnegie Mellon University, I have over two years of experience teaching and tutoring, including cybersecurity boot camps at Northwestern University and the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Since graduation, I have traveled extensively, got my masters in Occupational Therapy, and tutored English and writing to students of all ages. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about English, Writing and basic math. In my experience helping struggling students with initiating essay writing, we always seem to have the most fun (with remarkable advancements) prepping for the critical reading, comprehension, and writing. I am a firm proponent of education, believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life, and I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students. I believe in creating plans that are student centered.

Throughout my career, I have been teaching others how to improve one's self by reading, learning new techniques, and applying new methods.I like to teach young adults and adults in general who have being left behind and out of school for several years. Individuals who work hard and now are looking for an opportunity to advance their present conditions through education and training. I would like to guide them so that they could be able to combine their experiences and the new acquired education to articulate a vision and set concrete goals for improving their future. Because It is through education and the setting of goals and objectives that most people become empowered to continue furthering their education, professional development, and improving their lives.In addition, I want to teach and help participants develop the needed critical thinking and problem-solving skills necessary to adapt to the constant changes of the social and economic conditions. This is what education and learning another language can do.

I recognize the significance of interaction and dialogue within teaching; something I learned from working at Kumon. I tutored students during the summer and the holidays. By doing this, I received a passion for teaching. Currently, I am receiving my BA in Secondary Education for Teaching of History. Through this, I aim to give students as many learning opportunities and experiences as possible in order to help them engage in their studies.

The chance to help people is my motivation to get out of bed in the morning and teaching is one of my favorite ways to help.

I bring to our tutoring sessions the experience of being a teacher assistant in Anatomy, Physiology and Histology and substitute teaching. I look forward to helping you succeed.

I am currently a student at the University of Missouri Kansas City as a part of their 6 year direct medical program. Medicine is my passion, and I'm thrilled that we are able to interview patients in the hospital and learn from them very early on in the process.The best teachers I've ever had have been more than just adults. They were passionate about the material they taught, and that passion was carried over to me. That is the main thing I hope to show students. A passion that will help them understand the material better.One of my favorite parts of tutoring is getting to know the students' learning style and how they think. The best part is that I have just recently taken all the subjects I have listed to tutor in. The information is fresh in my mind, so I can approach the content from many different angles to help the student understand the material.Outside of school, I spend a lot of my time at Buffalo Wild Wings, hands down the best wings I have ever eaten. Consequently, I also spend a lot of my time exercising - usually swimming or weightlifting.

Hello! I am currently a fourth year medical student in Chicago. I attended the University of Notre Dame for undergrad, where I was a double major in Chinese and pre-medicine.

I am a current graduate student at the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC). I have a major in Biological Sciences and a minor in Psychology from UIC and am now studying public health and medicine in an MD/MPH program. I started tutoring throughout my undergraduate career and have since worked with students in a variety of settings, both in person and online. I have tutored students all around Chicago, from kindergarten through high school, towards academic success in all subjects.For me, tutoring is a personalized experience. As I work with students, I learn how to adapt to their needs, relate seemingly uninteresting topics to their life, and think outside the box to explain a concept to them that may be particularly challenging or unclear. Through specialized individual attention, students became confident in their own abilities and began to develop into young scholars. Tutoring provided a means of reviewing and solidifying my own knowledge of topics as I taught it to my students while allowing me to pass my love of learning on to others.Some of my hobbies include working out, traveling, and photography. In my spare time, I can often be found exploring all of the wonderful festivals and restaurants Chicago has to offer!
