Gavin
Grades 6-12 STEM Tutor
I have always had a passion for teaching and learning math and science. I studied civil engineering in college at Purdue with a mathematics minor. I tutored AutoCAD drafting in college as well as AP Physics for high schoolers. For physics, I tutored 1 student and created an individualized study strategy based on the concepts she was struggling with. We would spend lots of time doing practice problems for each concept, and then I would create practice exams to test her knowledge. For drafting... Read more

Kyle
MD, PhD: General Surgery Resident & Science, USMLE, or STEP Tutor
If you are looking to go from the 80th percentile to the 99th, I'm not the tutor that you need. If you are scoring that high, you've probably already have things figured out. My specialty is in teaching the FUNDAMENTALS and proper TEST TAKING SKILLS. I have been tutoring for 10+ years, and have found that most students are lacking in the "art of test taking", with easy points being missed. About me: I completed my PhD in Pharmacodynamics, with a focus on the neuropharmacology of aging. Th... Read more
Nadia
Experienced High school and College STEM tutor
Do you consider yourself "not a math person"? I used to hate math, but now it's my favorite subject to tutor! After years of struggling through STEM courses, I learned how to make learning work for me. During my time in college, I studied Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. I became a peer tutor for intro level courses in those subjects, and fell in love with tutoring and getting to support those "aha" moments. My goal as a tutor is to help students feel prepared for quizzes and tests, compl... Read more
Jamie
Patient and Enthusiastic Elementary Reading and Math Tutor
I have always loved teaching children. The ability to see a child understand a concept that has been discouraging to them for so long is a wonderful feeling. I am in my fifth year as an elementary teacher on Chicago's south side. I've had the privilege to teach so many students in grades kindergarten through second grade. They've shown me that hard work pays off. I consider myself truly lucky to teach primary children because of their natural love of learning. I believe that if we don't... Read more

An Apple A Day...
Steve Jobs stated, "Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition." Everyone learns differently. Education is the foundation to find what we excel at and to parlay that passion into work that we love. With more than ten years of experi... Read more
