A Little Bit About Me...

When I attended Malcolm X College, my first class was a math class. I excelled in the class with an A and was asked by the professor to become a teaxchers assistant in Basic Math and Algebra. After completing my next level Math(College Algebra) I received an A and continued to tutor his students. It was then I began Tammies Tutorial Service. I tutored all ages in Basic Math and Algebra. I also tutored College Algebra and Geometry. I was then hired by the Board of Education to Supervise and tutor young teen for the Chicago Mayor's Summer Program. I continued that position for 2 years.
I believe that I was born to teach. I have the gift to explain things that are usually challenging for people. I consider myself to be a people person.

A Little Bit About Me...

I earned a BS degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Washington, where I tutored for 2 years in the subjects of physics, calculus, differential equations, linear algebra, engineering mechanics and thermodynamics. In addition to my technical background, I studied English and liberal arts for 2 years and wrote fiction for my college magazine. Over the past 2 years I have worked as a volunteer tutor with students in Chicago ranging from 7th grade through college, teaching English, mathematics and science. I am an experienced engineer and technician, and can readily communicate the relevance of math and science to students at all levels. I am currently pursuing a graduate degree in engineering.
I am extremely patient and even-tempered, but also very focused and passionate about education. Communicating with the student and parents is vital to the tutoring process. It e ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I worked for College of Lake County as a math tutor on algebra from January 2006 to November 2008 I've been working as a paraprofessional or teacher aid at Green Bay and South School (Elementary) in the school district of North Chicago, IL from August 2006 to June 2011.
As a math tutor I helped students from College of Lake County solve math problems. As a paraprofessional or teacher aid I helped or tutored student with the homework, or with the material initially introduced by the teacher and needed to be reinforced to the students from the bilingual department. One to one and/or small group, and/or entire class when it was needed because of the teacher's absence.

I have been teaching for 25 years. I began as a high-school teacher, taught grade school and special education, and then spent 20 years as a university professor of English and philosophy. I started tutoring as a graduate student and have been doing it on and off now for 20 years.
I like working with grade-school students, but I like best a variety of teaching situations. That for me truly represents the challange of teaching. Only a diversity of students can bring learning to itself, reveal the demands of cognition for what they are. As a philosophy PhD this interests me very much.

More About This Tutor...

Generally, I'm a constructivist, and I believe the best method of tutoring is providing a completely individuated scaffold for any student. While I was raised in old-school education, I believe that some of the newer techniques of education through hands-on, the use of digital technology, and through writing across the curriculum are effective for many students.
I have two bachelor degrees, one in computer science, the other in mathematics with a type 09 cert (6-12). I belong to Mensa and the NCTM, and have excellent English and decent Spanish speaking and writing skills. I have taught and tutored in mathematics and computer science for quite awhile, and I earned a 95% on my PSAT and a 32 on my ACT.
