More About This Tutor...

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.

My comments on tutoring ACT : 33

I am a University of Chicago graduate in English with a minor in Environmental Studies. I have always had a strong interest in and affinity for mathematics and the sciences, particularly Earth Sciences, and I am very familiar with Environmental Law in particular. I particularly enjoy reading (thus the English major) - poetry above all - and playing chess (for which I am also available as a tutor).

A Little Bit About Me...

One of the greatest joys of teaching is seeing each one of my students grow as an individual and academically.I have always wanted to be a teacher since I can remember. I wanted to give back to my students what was given to me. "A chance to to learn and grow". For me, it seemed only natural to obtain a career in the area of my first love "TEACHING". I teach because it's who I am and what I do. When I see my students getting excited about learning;I feel that same excitement as though it was me as a young child again. It's my chance to do something meaningful and fulfilling with my life. It reminds me that I have imparted knowledge into the lives of each one of my students. This is what God has intended for me to do. “TEACH”
As a teacher, one of the most important things I can do is create a community of learners, which helps me determine how to assess my students. Creating a c ... read more

Based on my degree which is BS in Finance and MS in Management Information Systems I have been able to touch so many learning experiences from this. The nature of my studies has helped me to gain more understanding in both the business aspect and sciences. It has also helped to improve my way of writing in presenting reports and research based work. In the past, I have tutored elementary candidate in Math, English and Sciences.
One of the most favorable things that I love to do is helping children to gain more understanding in their academics. I have worked with different children in the past, and I have helped so many of them to understand that they can be the best in whatever they set out to do. I am very patient, tolerant and can help your child improve and get the best experience in learning.

More About This Tutor...

I would describe my teaching style as innovative, flexible, and passionate. After observing and working with countless students, I have realized that every individual has their own style of learning. Therefore, as an instructor, it is my duty to differentiate my instruction so that I can appropriately teach to those specific styles. My instruction is infused with passion, which is exemplified in my insistent creation, reflection, and re-creation of teaching materials (based on how well the student grasps the material and in what manner they do so). I have a strong belief that, given the right instruction, each and every student can learn, succeed, and even excel academically.
My recent training through the nationally ranked Illinois State University English Education Program required me to work with a wide range of learners (from advanced placement students to those with learning d ... read more

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.

I have no absolute teaching style that would apply to all students because I feel that each student is a unique individual with their own specific needs. There for it is much more important to adapt individual lessons and teaching strategies to each student individually in order to capitalize on the strengths and weakness of the individual. I prefer to tailor my lessons to each individual situation in order to achieve the most beneficial and desired results possible in order to achieve predetermined goals.

More About This Tutor...

I really love kids and I enjoy working with them. Throughout my years of experience, I have worked with students of all ages, from pre-school to adults. I understand that each person has their own unique style of learning, and I pride myself on being able to reach each student.
I attended Whitney Young High School and began tutoring while in school as a part of my volunteer service with the National Honor Society. I continued to teach while in college, and in fact, worked as a tutor part time. After college, I moved to Japan for one year and worked as an English teacher. When I returned to the United States, while attending law school, I was employed as a tutor for the LLM students.
