Im a wonderful person with an excellent need to be better.

I am a very smart individual and I am very helpful. I love to read and write. I am very creative with everything that I do. I am a motivator and a very hard worker. I struggled for the longest time in math but once I teamed up with a great tutor, everything went well. I have a passion to do well in school because I want to prove something to myself. I want to be the best person that I can be so I have to strive to get my education first.
I listen to the person to figure out what they need to build strength in. I help them make their weaknesses stronger by showing care and support.

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 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. I can confidently teach any subject that is taught in grade school. I have experience with AP tests, the SAT, and the GRE. I spent two years abroad during high school in Astana, Kazakhstan and come from a Russian background, so I am a native Russian and English speaker.

My comments on tutoring Creative Writing : I graduated from Columbia College of Chicago with a BA in Screenwriting, and I minored in Fiction Writing. Any form of writing, poetry or prose, film or television, is an absolute passion of mine. Can't get enough!

In addition to my collegiate degree in writing, I've worked on multiple occasions with the Big Idea Writers Challenge as a judge. Our job was to review contestants' entries and provide professional notes and constructive criticism. I've also worked outside that field with many friends, classmates, and family members to give helpful critiques and extensive notes sessions. And I'd absolutely love to broaden those horizons and help anyone who can use what I've learned to better their writing!
While I'm trying to keep my expressions on here as professional as I can, I'm actually quite a quirky character. I love to laugh and enjoy life, and I do my best to bring that to my teaching. I'm not the serious, shove-your-nose-to-the-grindstone type teacher, because I earnestly believe people learn better in a relaxed, fun environment. I'm here to help YOU better comprehend what you're not full ... read more

I have a Master's of Education degree with endorsements in English as a Second Language and Bilingual Education, and have been teaching grades K-8 for seven years. Additionally, I have tutored and managed a Title I tutoring for my school district. I pride myself in working with my students, channeling their strengths, and helping them to use their strong suits in order to achieve success academically and socially.
I would describe my teaching style as very thorough. I find that students are able to succeed when the curriculum, especially one with which a student is experiencing difficulty, is taught in a way that reflects their learning style and interests.

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 s ... read more

More About This Tutor...

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. Concomitantly, 12 years of preparing students for the TOEFL examination. 20 years of experience teaching high school English---Grammar and Compostion; Literatu ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Relating well to the student is the key to communication. A tutoring session should be a positive experience and a strategy for developing skills should be discussed early on to insure clarity.
I have experience as an online journalist, essay writer, local news reporter, certified elementary school teacher and music teacher. I have published many interviews, book and music reviews and worked with children and young adults. I have also taught ESL for many years and designed curriculum guides for many student levels.
