A Little Bit About Me...

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.

Reading Comprehension is one of my top subjects! I received a BA in English from The College of New Jersey, and my studies were primarily focused on studying the literature of various cultures and time periods. Afterwards, I worked for several years as a freelance contributor to a number of newspapers (especially Pioneer Press, a network of Chicago-area community papers) and magazines (especially Hybrid Magazine, an online music publication).

I believe in teaching in a relaxed and positive atmosphere that supports students' growth. Chess and writing/reading/English improvement are my primary objectives, and I believe strongly that improvement happens when the learning process is FUN. Students must enjoy learning in order to improve quickly! I have had great success in the past with this low-pressure approach.

My comments on tutoring Reading Comprehension : I have worked with students at all elementary schools levels to improve their reading comprehension.

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-school programs under the "No Child Left Behind" initiative. In that position, I placed students in individual programs specific to their needs. I worked as the computer resource teacher for grades 3-8 for 13 years. In this position, I was able to improve and remediate students' performance in the subjects contained in the approved school curriculum. Most impor ... read more

Reading Comprehension is one of my top subjects! There are 7 skills needed to understanding what you read. Let me help you with them. We can discuss what they are when you call.

Prefer to facilitate learning and provide more hands on activities. Try to connect reading with writing as the two subjects are very much intertwined in the skills they take. Great at teaching across the curriculum to help students in subject areas that require reading of nonfiction
Taught Grades 3-6 over a 35 year career successfuly with great feedback from students, parents, and administration. Love teaching all subject areas at the elementary school level. Education: BS.ED in English and minor in education; At least 60 hours beyond my Masters in School Administration in various subject areas: Reading, Writing, Math, Animal science.

I am looking forward to helping as many people as possible while still giving each student the individual attention that they require. I believe that with the proper help and support all children are able to learn new things on a daily basis. I am willing to go above and beyond to help your children succeed in life.
