I do the best I can to help my students do their best.

I received a B.A. in English from Northern Illinois University in 2010. I am a certified High School English teacher for grades 9-12. I took a class during my B.A. called Advanced Essay Composition and I feel like that shaped the way that I write; and took my practice to a whole new level. It is strategies and methods that I learned in this class that I try to incorporate in my writing and my teaching. I've worked in a residential/ school setting for the last three and a half years. I completed my student teaching in the spring of 2012 at Grayslake Central High School and a long term substitution assignment at Lakes Community High School in fall 2013. I will be finishing my Master's Degree in teaching over the summer of 2014.
I feel like I can teach the most efficiently in a one-to-one setting. This allows me to tailor instruction to a student's particular needs.

Every child should have the best educational experience possible, and I want to provide that for your child. I strive to teach each student why, not just what. A complete understanding of how something works will remain with a student much longer than the knowledge that it does work. I hope that by tailoring my teaching style to the individual, I can help him or her to achieve their maximum potential in each academic area. I absolutely love the materials I teach, and if I can impart that to my students, not only will I have accomplished my goal, but also they will have gained a passion for learning that will benefit them their entire life.
Beginning my foreign language education at the age of seven instilled in me a determination to master the French language and then use it to help others. I have earned a bachelor degree in French and graduated summa cum laude in three years. ... read more

As an English teacher in Incheon, South Korea, I prepared lesson plans on a daily basis and led in the classroom to foster a creative, fun, and educational environment. I chose to go to South Korea to explore a new culture, travel, and learn a new language after finishing my BA in Political Science (International Affairs) and Global Studies, with a dual concentration in Russian Languages and Literature and Southeast Asia Area Study. I have extensively edited English as a second language essays at the TEFL level as well as worked as a native speaker for ESL dialogue tapes.
I have a lot of fun working with children of all ages. My goal is to increase your child's confidence in his or her writing abilities, as writing well is the key to academic and career success.

A Little Bit About Me...

To reach the students and motivate them to learn takes enthusiasm both for sociology and for teaching. When students see that I am passionate about the discipline and energetic and excited about teaching, this rubs off on them and is conducive to their learning. I am an active and thorough lecturer, but at the same time I seek to involve the students as much as possible so as to make their learning experience one which they help to construct. I have found that I retain more knowledge through the articulation of ideas akin to teaching, and believe that when students are open and encouraged to express themselves they will have similar experience learning.
In approaching the learning environment as a College Graduate with my MA in Criminology and Statistics, I seek to do for my students what numerous professors did for me when I was an undergraduate: Instill a passion for sociolog ... read more

I consider myself an engaging and fun teacher, while at the same time a driven motivator. Because of my unusual degree in pure math, my knowledge of the content area and various solution strategies is unparalleled. With my interest in English, I feel that it helps me to relate better to all students. Because of my positive attitude and caring disposition, students feel comfortable coming to me with questions and are willing to work their hardest. I have high expectations of my students, and, likewise, I have high expectations for myself.
I spent most of my undergraduate degree focused on learning advanced mathematics. While it was extremely challenging, I enjoyed it more than any other education experience. My love of math was echoed in my love for literature and writing. Although English was less challenging for me, the creative freedom made it worthwhile. All through coll ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I first identify the student's strengths and weaknesses, and try to come up with a way to teach the student in a way that they will understand. I believe patience is very essential to having a successful outcome with the student.
I am well versed in math and finance, as well as writing. As a high school student, I successfully completed AP Calculus I and II, AP Physics, and AP Chemistry. I also took Calculus II for Engineers at Johns Hopkins University, as well as a variety of finance courses at Goizueta Business School. I also have excellent grammatical skills, as I am a former Editor-in-Chief of a law journal. I presently work as a law clerk, and writing for a judge is something I do every day. I'm qualified to be a Spanish tutor because I minored in Spanish at Johns Hopkins, and also studied abroad in Madrid, Spain in 2005.
