College Composition Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Chicago, IL

Furthermore, I believe the most important part of tutoring is making learning fun and providing students with confidence in the subject being tutored.

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.
