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.

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.

I basically teach according to what the students like or is familiar with (art, sport, etc.) and I utilize what they're good at with the subject matter. For instance, if a student is into baseball, I teach math using scoring method, countries where players are from for social studies, speed of running, throwing, etc. for teaching science, and so on. With the younger students, I oberve them during choice time or free play and document what areas they are attracted to the most, how they interact with each other and their conversations. I use the data to help me develop and strenghten the abilities they exhibit. 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 student

I believe that inclusive, positive learning experience leads to greater retention of knowledge in students who strive for success. This method of learning can best be accomplished when a balanced, and constructive sessions are offered by tutors. In this setting, a pleasant, understanding, and a non-judgmental approach ensures the a student's interest in maintained by exposing the intrigue and fascination a subject has to offer. It is only then, that a natural and unforced curiosity rises and leads to show greater intellectual stimulation. I have recently finished my MA in History (2012), as an aspiring Professor of History, I am seeking to build my credentials in teaching and instruction.

My teaching style depends upon the learning preferences of the student, as I know each student has their own way of learning. Moreover, I also provide additional supplemental information and practice problems. I believe in learning not only the concepts of a subject, but also their real world applications. Furthermore, I believe the most important part of tutoring is making learning fun and providing students with confidence in the subject being tutored. I have university teaching experience and tutoring students for 19 years in a variety of subjects for students in grades 1-12, as well as traditional and non-traditional Undergraduate and Graduate students. In addition to tutoring a variety of subjects, I also provide assistance with Master's theses and Ph.D. dissertations, specifically Statistical/Research Design Methodology and Statistical Analysis.
