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.

Elementary Reading is one of my top subjects! I am a certified Reading Specialist. I have 5 years teaching experience at the elementary level.

I have Masters degree in Reading and Literacy and I am a certified Reading Specialist. I currently teach preschool students who are deaf and hard of hearing at a school where I have cultivated a reputation for leadership and innovation. In addition to my preschool group, I also work one-on-one with a kindergarten and a first grade student incorporating the five areas of reading instruction (i.e. vocabulary. fluency, phonics, phonemic awareness, and comprehension).
I am continuously responding to the individual needs of my students by differentiating instruction, a strategy I believe is key to all successful teachers. My approach to lesson planning includes individualized targets, tiered group activities, and individual behavior plans, and I regularly assess my students through observation, anecdotal notes and daily charting to ensure they are able to make meaningful progress thr ... read more

My comments on tutoring Elementary Reading : Five school years as a substitute teacher has required class, small group, and individual instruction. Additionally I have received training for instruction in this area in my pursuit of a K-8 teaching license.

My teaching style emphasizes intuition and adaptability to ensure a good fit between teaching and learning styles. Equal emphasis is placed on learning current material and the confidence for future learning. Teaching methods will vary depending on the skills, interests, and temperaments of each student.
Experience overview: 5-years experience as a substitute teacher, worked as a tutor for one year, volunteered to assist teachers in the classroom, and is in studying to become a licensed elementary teacher. Details I am currently in my fifth year of substitute teaching. The students have come from a wide variety of backgrounds and with varying degree of academic skills. I have had taught in all subject areas. In the classroom I strive to be well-prepared, organized, engaging, and accessible. I am on the preferred substitute list of many teachers and often I am cont ... read more

I have taken a broad range of honors classes in high school including chemistry, mandarin Chinese, and pre-calculus. I have experience tutoring at the Literacy Center of my high school. I am currently pursuing a degree in Chemistry at Oakton Community College and will continue my education at a 4-year-univeristy.
I like to let the student figure out methods on their own with my guidance, not doing the work for them directly. This helps them learn the material in a better way. I can help with homework for the listed subjects of beginning levels.

More About This Tutor...

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.
