Language Arts Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Elmwood Park, IL

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

Hello, my name is Vanessa and I have tutored students for almost three years. I tutor ages 5 to adult. When I begin tutoring a student, I perform an evaluation in order to determine the areas they need help. I adjust my teaching style in order to suit the student's learning style. I also provide parents with progress reports. My goal is to help students improve their skills and gain confidence.

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.

I have significant experience working with teens in a classroom setting. I taught English in public secondary schools on the island of Guadeloupe in 2009-2010, and for the past four summers, I have worked for the Middlebury-Monterey Language Academy, a French immersion program for high school students. This summer, in addition to teaching a four-week French Level I class, I designed and taught a seven-day elective course called “Making the Museum,” in which we critically examined the roles of artist and curator through exploration of museum websites, discussion of contemporary Francophone artists, and studio projects. I have also worked as a French teacher for parents and their young children at Multilingual Chicago in Logan Square, and substitute taught adult classes at their center as well.

Simply put: My teaching style is student-centered, and so is my tutoring style. I start where the student is now, and go from there, working from strengths and shoring up weaknesses. Most importantly, I develop a plan of "action," by the end of the very first session, so I waste neither the time of the student nor the money of the parent/payor. Over 20 years of experience teaching ESL speaking, reading, writing, grammar and vocabulary to levels ranging from literacy to near-fluency. An ESL training film was made about my teaching style in 2003 by the ALRC, Adult Language Resource Center in Arlington Heights,IL. In 2005, I patented a revolutionary system for teaching keyboarding / typing to both adults and adolescents.
