I've been tutoring for the better part of two years. Through that time, I have gained an earnest understanding of what it means to be an effective mentor. I stand by my belief that knowing the information and teaching the information are two entirely different things. When I tutor, I use techniques that get directly to the heart of the information.
I primarily tutor ACT/SAT prep, Math to Calculus III, and all the Sciences.
I am also knowledgeable on the college application process and can help with editing papers, developing a resume, or just serve as a guiding hand through a crucial time. Depending on the subject, I utilize from my own academic career tools that I found were the most effective and mos

Stephanie B. - Chicago, IL 60611 (22.5 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $70.00/hr.
My teaching style depends upon the learning preferences of the student, as I know each student has their own way of learning. Moreover, I also provide additional supplemental information and practice problems. I believe in learning not only the concepts of a subject, but also their real world applications. Furthermore, I believe the most important part of tutoring is making learning fun and providing students with confidence in the subject being tutored. I have university teaching experience and tutoring students for 19 years in a variety of subjects for students in grades 1-12, as well as traditional and non-traditional Undergraduate and Graduate students. In addition to tutoring a variety of subjects, I also provide assistance with Master's theses and Ph.D. dissertations, specifically Statistical/Research Design Methodology and Statistical Analysis.

Logical lecturing periodically within explanations poised by pupils based on material being studied. I have never formally tutored anyone but I have helped my younger siblings and classmates with homework before and I am confident in my abilities to communicate information in a logical and well ordered manner so that a pupil will be able to understand, comprehend, and apply the information in a testing setting.

Stephen C - Naperville, IL 60565 (2.9 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $62.00/hr.
I love teaching and tutoring and have grown in this love over my fifteen years as a professional educator. My goal is to support, guide, and inspire your child such that she/he will achieve academic success now and in the future. As a University of Notre Dame graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned two bachelor degrees, BA in Economics and BS in Mathematics, and a master's degree, MA in Secondary Education. All three degrees have enabled me to effectively teach high school for fifteen years at three outstanding high schools: Saint Ignatius College Prep (Chicago, IL - 6 years,) Cardinal Gibbons (Raleigh, NC - 7 years,) and Brother Rice (Chicago, IL - 2 years.) I have also tutored students in mathematics and SAT/ACT prep.

Patrick M - Naperville, IL 60565 (3 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $44.00/hr.
I have been teaching for 25 years. I began as a high-school teacher, taught grade school and special education, and then spent 20 years as a university professor of English and philosophy. I started tutoring as a graduate student and have been doing it on and off now for 20 years. I like working with grade-school students, but I like best a variety of teaching situations. That for me truly represents the challange of teaching. Only a diversity of students can bring learning to itself, reveal the demands of cognition for what they are. As a philosophy PhD this interests me very much.

Mehrnoosh S - Glen Ellyn, IL 60137 (6.8 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $46.50/hr.
I believe a great teacher needs to have proper skills and talents for teaching. I learned a lot while growing up from a great teacher; my mother. My mother was a teacher for thirty years teaching elementary grades. I learned a great teacher needs to be respectful, patient and to be able to illustrate the lesson in an easy, simple way. I try to provide simple analogies for each concept. This enables the student to grasp the concept easier and faster. In addition I help my students to learn better by asking few questions about the concept. This will help them to truly understand the lesson by using their analytical thinking. I have been fascinated with tutoring for the past three years ago. I began tutoring one of the professors at the University of IL at Chicago in a foreign language. Since then, I have been tutoring various age groups from eight years old to fifty four years old. I recei

Ron S - villa park, IL 60181 (9.5 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $44.50/hr.
As a seasoned teacher I have accomplished many attributes. I have earned a bachelor's in Music and a masters in Special ed. In addition I believe that teaching is not like any other profession, it challenges you in every way possible from building your character, wisdom, patience, intuitiveness and knowledge. Teacher’s are not only given the challenge of building their own self esteem, but also the students in their classroom. I believe that out of all the experience I have had the most important one has been establishing a rapport with the student and giving them the confidence they need so they can pursue each subject area.
I believe teacher's are given the opportunity to improve the student's individual character, improve the students knowledge intake, and when the student actually gets what the teacher is trying to teach that is the most rewarding experience for the student an

Carlie A - Aurora, IL 60503 (10.2 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $45.50/hr.
As a college graduate, I have earned a bachelor's degree in Economics, with a minor in Statistics. I have 2 years in a professional financial position. Along side of my finance career I assisted a friend of mine in the academia field. I assisted in creating lesson plans, grading papers, writing tests, and team building activities. Throughout my academic career I have always succeeded in math. I have always had a love of numbers and would love the opportunity to share my love and help others. I would greatly appreciate being considered for this position. I would consider my teaching style as hands on. I love to work with children and know that I am giving the confidence to learn. I believe that every child has the ability to learn if they are given a safe learning space to explore their potential. I believe that being an educator is the greatest gift that I could give to anyone in need.

Kimberly W - Plainfield, IL 60544 (10.8 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $50.00/hr.
Every student is different, therefore every student has different needs. Every student also can learn differently, whether it be by incorporating more or less visual learning strategies, auditory learning strategies, or using more of the "hands on" approach. Learning can be and should be fun! I love teaching a student to success and when they enjoy what they are doing they are much more likely to succeed! As an active member of my community, in the form of pageantry, volunteering, and leadership, I have always enjoyed instructing others. Currently, I love my job at Midwest Generation as an Instructional Designer of Training. I get to train Engineers and Office Managers on subjects I knew little about, and have grown in responsibility and development. I love kids, since my summer camp instruction job I held all throughout High School as well as an active instructor at my church. I just gr

Kathleen G - Oak Forest, IL 60452 (14.6 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $52.50/hr.
I would describe my teaching style as innovative, flexible, and passionate. After observing and working with countless students, I have realized that every individual has their own style of learning. Therefore, as an instructor, it is my duty to differentiate my instruction so that I can appropriately teach to those specific styles. My instruction is infused with passion, which is exemplified in my insistent creation, reflection, and re-creation of teaching materials (based on how well the student grasps the material and in what manner they do so). I have a strong belief that, given the right instruction, each and every student can learn, succeed, and even excel academically. My recent training through the nationally ranked Illinois State University English Education Program required me to work with a wide range of learners (from advanced placement students to those with learning disabil
