Dhruvi

Admissions Tutor • +26 Subjects

I am a graduate from University of Illinois at Chicago. I recently received my Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience with a minor in Chemistry. Throughout my undergraduate years, I have extensively taken an active role in a broad range of research projects including public health and biochemistry. Given my background, I am passionate about science and public health. In my experience helping students struggling with science courses, I have learned that a lot of times constructing the basics about a given topic makes it easier to learn complex topics. Everyone has a different learning technique, and I am here to help.

Jaladhija

Algebra Tutor • +9 Subjects

I am an undergraduate student at Saint Louis University majoring in Neuroscience and minoring in Computer Science, and have been accepted into medical school. As a tutor with Learning Lodge for the past two years, I have worked with children from families adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic; I have worked as a Teaching Assistant at Best Brains Learning Center, an enrichment program designed to help children aged 3 and above develop academically. While I tutor various subjects, I am especially passionate in teaching students Math, Science, English, and Writing; these have been extremely exciting subjects to teach the future generations eager to learn more. After spending several years tutoring children and taking courses such as Developmental Child Psychology and learning the most effective ways to curate a teaching curriculum targeted toward ensuring children retain knowledge and have fun, I have an increased interest in one day becoming a Pediatric Neurologist or Adolescent & Child Psychiatrist! As an advocate for education rights and expanding progress in the community and worldwide, I am committed to helping struggling students obtain the necessary resources for a bright future filled with passionate learning and sharing my joy.

Cassie

ACT English Tutor • +20 Subjects

I am an English Educator. In May 2019, I received my Bachelor of Arts from Michigan State University in English. More recently, I have received my teaching certification in grades 6-12. My philosophy of teaching English Language Arts is centered around culturally responsive teaching. I am passionate about helping students because I believe that youth should be empowered to explore, experiment, and discover in ways that meet their needs.My teaching experience ranges across a diverse group of learners. Most of my experience is in Middle and High School as I engaged in service learning and practicums through my university in those placements. However, I have also worked with Elementary School learners in after-school and extracurricular programs. My work extends to adults in the community as well as I have worked in an educative role in an intentional housing organization. I also have traveled to various countries in Europe, South America, and Africa studying education. For five years, I participated in a Global Educator's Cohort Program that prepared me to work with diverse learners and create multicultural academic environments. Most recently, I spent the past school year student-teaching 10th grade Pre-AP English and 12th grade Creative Writing. Currently I teach 11th Grade British & World Literature and 10-12th Grade Creative Writing.I am currently available to tutor in English Language Arts related content at all age levels including but not limited to reading, reading comprehension, writing, essay writing, grammar and syntax, American and/or comparative literature, as well as ACT/SAT reading and writing prep.When it comes to one-on-one tutoring, my teaching philosophy is directed by an individualized approach. Using the resources from the course and/or exam that the student is preparing for, I work with the student to create meaningful scaffolds, practice work, and generative assessment. Building rapport with students is important to me so that I can best understand their learning preferences, styles, and needs.

Jing

AP Chinese Language and Culture Tutor • +16 Subjects

I am a graduate of the University of Notre Dame (ND), where I received my Bachelor of Science in Science Pre-Professional Studies (pre-medicine) and a minor in Anthropology. During my time at ND, I tutored Freshman ND students in organic and inorganic chemistry for two and a half years. Some of my other extracurricular activities included founding the World Health Assimilation Through Notre Dame (WHAT ND) club, participating in rare and neglected diseases research, and volunteering in my local communities. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about science (chemistry and biology), math (K-college), and Chinese. I believe that a solid education is an important foundation for an individual's future and the future of humanity. In my spare time, I enjoy playing the piano, cooking, playing a wide variety of sports (i.e. Zumba, tennis, swimming), and reading.

Bethel

Constitutional Law Tutor • +43 Subjects

I am from the United Kingdom originally where I also read law/psychology earning a JD/LLB and a PhD. My family and I have been in the US for about 10 years.I love teaching. I come from a family of teachers and educators and got my first experience in a classroom full of gifted students with learning difficulties. I have enjoyed the experience of teaching since. My experience spans community college students to undergraduate and graduate learners. I currently have about 15 Doctoral/Research students for whom I serve both as Mentor and Dissertation Chairperson.I enjoy the opportunity to be a mentor. In fact, I relish the experience and have realized that I learn as much from my students as they do from me.I am currently on a sabbatical from my university where I serve as a law professor. I am in the middle of two books on law/psychology and a science fiction novel about artificial intelligence.In my spare time, I research and write. With a penchant for classical music and horse riding, I find it useful to temper my scholarly exuberance with some distractions such as driving fast and far to clear my mind. I also operate, with some very able and committed colleagues, a Not-for-profit organization dedicated to assisting people get into gainful employment.

Kurt

Bass Trombone Tutor • +10 Subjects

Teaching, or in other words, motivating people to want to learn is my life's calling. I acquire knowledge for its own sake, and encourage others to do the same. I have been teaching all types of people for nearly 20 years. I was educated via life. I have traveled the world and experienced several cultures. While I did attend college and received extensive training via the military, I tend to remember many details of both the thousands of hours I have spent in the classroom, both teaching and as a student, and the world that I have observed. I believe I can teach almost anything because teaching is an intensely personal endeavor. It is my job to motivate you to want to learn whatever it is you trying to learn. From there, my job is to guide you so you can not only discover for yourself, but keep discovering beyond my influence. In general, my favorite topics to teach are history and science. In history lies the importance of why things are because of us humans. Science is raw objective knowledge.
