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.

A Little Bit About Me...

Bachelor of Arts Degree in Communications from DePaul University - Concentration in Adult Literacy. Completed my 6 week Internship and Tutor Training with "Literacy Chicago." I worked with Adults who were struggling with reading and writing issues. The tutoring was one on one with selected students. The experience was phenomenal. The Adults I worked with were eager and motivated to change their lives even though some their life experiences had been traumatic. The time I spent with them gave me a new perspective on life. I believe you can overcome anything with hard work and faith.
