Eunice
Special Education Teacher Specializing in Reading and Writing
My favorite subjects in elementary school were always reading and writing! As a little girl, my favorite books to read were the “Ramona Quimby†series by Judy Blume and “The Babysitters Club†books by Ann M. Martin. One of my favorite hobbies was creating little books at home and filling them with my own creative stories. In college, I worked as a writing advisor helping freshman students to become better writers. Now as a middle school special education teacher, I enjoy sharing my passion f... Read more

Professional Cellist and Teacher with a Doctorate in Cello Performance
Hello potential cello student! My name is Dessislava, which always proves to be way too long, so I am happy to go by Dessi.

Amanda
Dedicated and Enthusiastic Science Tutor
As a magna cum laude graduate from Augustana College majoring in Biochemistry and Pre-medicine with minors in Spanish and Chemistry, I was able to see how hard work and being dedicated to my studies paid off. During my time at Augustana, I served as a Chemistry tutor for both general and organic chemistry, as well as a lab proctor that oversaw lab procedures and was available for any questions. While in high school, I was a mentor that worked on developing skills needed for high school to a ... Read more
Alexsia
PhD in Microbiology for Microbiology and Genetics Tutoring
My desire to teach arose during my undergraduate studies at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh. Like many students I had both good and bad professors during my time at school but what intrigued me was what made a good professor so engaging and likewise what made the bad professors so unbearable. All too often science is presented as a blur of long words, and complicated equations. While these are certainly elements of scientific research, such a heavy emphasis on this during the early yea...

Phillip
Diligent and patient math tutor in Chicago
I first started enjoying math when I was in middle school. My teacher influenced the way I understood the material and she took pride in the subject, as I do now. After several, advanced, college-level math courses, I graduated college with more than just an Economics degree: I left with a love for math. I began tutoring calculus and prealgebra to high school students while at college. Most recently, I've tutored several high school students while employed at a national learning center. Here...
