I graduated from Oregon State University this year with double Honors BS degrees in Earth Science (with a Climatology focus) and Environmental Economics & Politics. I also have a Minor in Political Science. My Honors Thesis, which is in the final stages of submission, is on the testing of a new variable mixing efficiency variable for use in our current climate models. I am an inductee of Phi Beta Kappa, the most prestigious college Honors Society in the US. In high school, I almost exclusively took honors classes and AP classes.

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.

I work to address students' desires and needs and focus on those, encouraging students to perform. My attitude is more positive, looking for strengths and developing confidence and success, rather than spending a lot of time and effort on more technical details, which in any case can always be addressed as need arises. My teaching has consistently received excellent reviews from both my peers and my students, who enjoy and profit my my style of engagement.
Currently teaching linguistics at Northeastern Illinois University in Chicago, I have also been teaching and tutoring English grammar and writing as well as ESL. Most recently I was involved in the English program that Northwestern offers its incoming Kellogg School international students (ACE Program) and the more general intensive English program that the Linguistics Department offers non-Kellogg graduate students from abro ... read more
