I first discovered how much tutoring can help a student when I started struggling in organic chemistry during my sophomore year of college. No matter what method I used, I could not bring my grade up in that class, so I started attending tutoring sessions. It wasn't until I received this direct help...

Jasmine

Academic Coaching Tutor • +13 Subjects

I am a Junior at DePaul University working towards a Psychology degree. I love teaching and helping others around me, especially when it comes to writing and reading. Since high school, I have always found ways to reach out and further my love for mentoring and teaching. Throughout the school year, I am a mentee for a Chicago Public school child which has definitely benefited my teaching skills. As a military kid, I understand that every child grasps concepts in diverse ways and has a unique set of skills. That is why I am willing to tackle a problem in various ways, whichever is best fit for the child to understand and truly know. I am very patient, eager, and motivated to building positive relationships and look forward to tutoring on this platform!

Sarah

ACT Prep Tutor • +20 Subjects

I am currently attending Washington and Lee University. I am on track to receive a bachelors of arts in chemistry. I have had many years of tutoring experiencing in a broad range of subjects ranging from humanities to Stem courses. I typically enjoy tutoring in math and science courses the most. I feel that it is crucial in students' lives to have one on one academic instruction to help foster a love for a subject even though it might be challenging at first. In my free time I enjoy baking treats for my family, playing tennis with friends, or going for runs.

Eric

Biochemistry Tutor • +7 Subjects

Having grown up in a rural area surrounded by forests, streams, plants, animals, and lots and lots of rocks, I have always enjoyed the natural world. I decided early in my life to study nature and its processes. Curiosity drives me, but sharing the joy and rewards of curiosity has been a motivating force in my becoming a tutor and a teacher. I started tutoring science and math while studying for my undergraduate degree at Mansfield University in Pennsylvania. I was the school's math and science tutor for about two years. Later during my Ph.D. work at University at Buffalo, I continued tutoring, but this time in an unofficial capacity and focusing on helping my international student friends with their scientific writing. More recently I was a volunteer Chemistry tutor at one local college while teaching Chemistry at a second college. I enjoyed teaching at the college level, so I earned my teaching license and have been teaching middle school and high school Chemistry and Biology for the last several years. I have taught all levels from AP to basic in both subjects. I also have taught classes such as Human Anatomy/Physiology and Astronomy/Geology. I am interested in all fields and branches of science.

Nathan

Adult ESL/ELL Tutor • +47 Subjects

I volunteered to teach an ESL class in Israel in 1995. I have assisted in an Iowa after school tutoring program for three years. I enjoyed substitute teaching in Iowa school systems, then became a social worker for families facing challenges for two years.I was born and raised in Chicago then moved to the suburbs. I grew up playing hockey and participated in many sports in high school. I enjoy creating art and appreciating the art others create. I believe that whether someone cooks, fixes cars, listens to their friends, hangs out or any of the other billions of activities, they are expressing themselves-and that is art.When I teach-I ask questions because I be people are capable of discovering the answers. No two people learn the same way. Some people need to see it, some need to hear it, some need to just dive in and explore, some need to move around; most are some of each. I want people to do well. The first session will always contain a fair amount of getting acquainted and I promise to do my share of listening.

SaraJane

College English Tutor • +43 Subjects

In 2015, I graduated from Columbia College with a BA in Comedy Writing and Performance. However, I have a long and extensive background in English. I started tutoring all elementary subjects while still in high school. I edited essays and short stories for my peers and some graduates while in college. I also took many writing courses while there. My great grandmother, grandmother, and mother used to be English teachers, so it seems to be in my blood! I have a passion for grammar, as well as performance. I currently work as an instructor at Chicago Performing Arts and as Lead Educator for Right at School. Teaching is so rewarding. I love being able to watch students learn and grow. It is important for me to relate to my students and make learning fun. I don't think people learn when they're intimidated or bored, so finding ways to connect and make the materials interesting are important steps in my process. I encourage questions and creativity. Every student learns differently, and I make sure I find those differences to come up with the perfect education method for each student.Please feel free to reach out with any questions!

Emmanuel

College English Tutor • +37 Subjects

Failure is something that constitutes as a crossroad. One that separates the successful from the average. Shortcomings are not things to be ashamed of, but rather to be learned from.I believe that, while grades are certainly important to the success of the student, they are only a secondary focus of importance. There are dozens of ways to get good grades without ever increasing in knowledge. The primary focus of education should be to allow students to gain an understanding of themselves: strengths, weaknesses, abilities, affinities, etc.My goal as a tutor is to use my knowledge and successes as well as my personal and academic shortcomings to help students learn and grow in areas they don't feel confident in.My focus subjects are Writing, English, and their surrounding areas. I hope to be a help to any clients who would like my assistance. Thank you.
