Spelling Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Oak Brook, IL

I have been very productive in working to improve students' spelling skills at all elementary levels. I feel I provide a positive learning experience and atmosphere for students of all abilities at the elementary level. I use a hands-on approach when instructing students and give them freedom to express themselves in challenging students in creative assignments. I am an experienced and compassionate educator who worked within the Chicago Public School system at the same elementary school for 33 years. I taught and collaborated with the fourth grade team in the development and implementation of appropriate curriculum. I worked with the special education department to develop individualized learning plans for at-risk students. I also worked in the gifted program to provide above average students with a challenging curriculum appropriate to their needs. I was the coordinator for the after-s

Medical Student. I have tutored many kids in school and family for the past few years. I have experience with kids ranging from 5-16, and would say that I have a lot of patience. Right now I am a third year medical student. I want to help out the community in any way that I can. Most students just need someone to give them that push,I believe everyone is smart and some people just need that final push.

The prompt for this box (TEACHING STYLE) is ascinine in and of itself: tutoring-style is what it should read. And, please, forgive me, but either a tutor achieves results or a tutor does not. I carry diplomas (and who really cares?) from Northern Illinois University in both Political Philosophy and English Literature, yada-yada-yada, and so on and so forth, etcetera, etcetera (graduated 2006). I have written two full-length novels that your children, most likely, will someday be required to read by some god-forsaken English teacher who does not believe in 'fun'. I could, of course, sit here, all day, listing all the reasons why you, or your child, should choose 'me' to guide them through life, and if not through life, then, at the very least, through whichever course they will most likely fail otherwise. Furthermore, and in spite of the fact that I do not understand this most bothersome

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.
