My comments on tutoring Social Studies : 4 years overall experience.

I begin each lesson with an introduction to the topic, then follow up with student centered activities.
I have been teaching for over 4 years now. I received my certification from DePaul University in Secondary Education Social Sciences. I am also endorsed to teach Arabic; a language I've studied for over 10 years. Since graduating from DePaul University in 2010, I have worked at a Chicago Public School located in the Northside. I have taught both U.S. History as well as World History to various levels including Regular and English Language Learners. As for Arabic, I have taught both Regular and Honors Arabic to native speakers as well as non-native speakers.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a Bachelors in English from Dominican University. I began A Plus Master Tutoring Center over 4 years ago and was teaching in my home. Now we have expanded to a center in Oak Park and we tutor all ages, from Pre-K to adults. Our subjects range from phonics to algebra. Our teaching styles vary from a 3:1 ratio, which would include up to three students and one tutor, or a 1:1 ratio which would be a private session with a student and a tutor. Session prices range from $25-$27 depending on the type of session. We pride ourselves in being an affordable tutoring center compared with the prices of Huntington and Sylvan learning centers. Our tutoring center works with all types of children and we are proud of the work we put forth.

A Little Bit About Me...

I attended Northeastern Illinois University and obtained a B.A. degree in Elementary & Special Education, with honors. My first job, straight out of college was as an Educational Consultant. I trained teacher how to us computers to install educational programs for their students. After four years I was transfered to Florida. I resigned after a year and returned to Chicago. Around the mid 80's I relocated to Puerto Rico and work as a 3rd and 4th grade teacher. After two years I returned to Chicago and work in a respite care unit as a special education teacher. After two years, relocated again to Atlanta, Ga. It was there that I discovered my love for teaching kindergaten children and a 4th grade special education class. I decided to return to Chicago after a couple of years and teach at the preschool and kindergarten level; instead I became a director for a Head start program. T ... read more

Freshman Tutor

Hi. My name is Monique and I am a female tutor. I am actually 15 years of age and I am trying to make extra money while I am in high school and I feel it would be best if I choose to tutor others. I go to one of the best high schools in Chicago which is Providence St.Mel High School. I am currently taking a Spanish class and I have tutored in the past numerous of times but it wasn't a daily job.
I like to be in an quiet environment because it will be easier for me and the student to be able to concentrate. I feel that it will create a better chance for the student to be able to understand the subject they are struggling on much better.

My comments on tutoring Social Studies : I have learned to teach across the curriculum. If you have good reading skills where nonfiction is concerned, you can understand social studies. I can help you do that.

Prefer to facilitate learning and provide more hands on activities. Try to connect reading with writing as the two subjects are very much intertwined in the skills they take. Great at teaching across the curriculum to help students in subject areas that require reading of nonfiction
Taught Grades 3-6 over a 35 year career successfuly with great feedback from students, parents, and administration. Love teaching all subject areas at the elementary school level. Education: BS.ED in English and minor in education; At least 60 hours beyond my Masters in School Administration in various subject areas: Reading, Writing, Math, Animal science.
