Lisa
Experienced Writing Tutor, with ESL student background
- $36 / h
- Park Ridge , Illinois ( 60068 )
- 10 miles
I worked for 1 year at a university writing center, averaging 8 hours per week of tutoring. My tutoring style is above all conversational: getting to hear directly from a student about where they are and how I can help them. This style involves moving beyond grammar to improving the clarity of a student's writing, strength of an argument, and building greater comprehension. Additionally, I have established relationships with several international students, for whom English is not their fi... Read more

I am a passionate educator with 7 years of elementary education experience. I taught third grade in a school in the suburbs of Chicago for 7 years. I love teaching and have a passion for helping kids reach their potential. I have taught to the common core state standards for many years and love teaching math with a hands-on approach. In order for students to fully grasp a concept, they must have a strong number sense. Building number sense, using manipulatives and breaking apart numbers in ... Read more

Friendly and Effective English Tutor Shares Love of Words
- $35 / h
- 1 rating
- Brookfield , Illinois ( 60513 )
- 15 miles
A native English speaker, I enjoy sharing my love of our complex language with others who are newer to it. I first became a one on one volunteer tutor to adults in Chicago with Jane Addams Resource Corporation (JARC). Later I became the Program Director of JARC's Adult Learners' Program, which meant recruiting, testing, matching and supporting the students and tutors. We had a mixture of ESL, ABE (Adult Basic Education) and GED prep students in the program. After moving from the city to t... Read more

I teach Spanish at all levels and European, Latin American, and World History. Spanish is my native language, and because of my academic preparation and experience, I can teach it at any level, from the most introductory levels to the most advanced. If you need assistance in English, just to impr... Read more
Mike
Mr. Reading for Enjoyment (and puzzles too)
I work with students of all ages one-on-one with a variety of approaches and strategies. I like to put together simple research papers, narratives, poems, songs, and fantasy stories. It is even more fun when we illustrate what we are writing about. An engaging story, read aloud, goes a long way toward bringing up school work performance. Getting a hold of two copies of a book--say, Hunger Games, for example, is not very difficult. For the beginning reader, Patricia Pollcka has written and ... Read more

Eunice
Math Junkie with a passion for teaching!
Teaching has always been something I've been passionate about. Helping people get to that "aha!" moment is one of the most rewarding things for me--it feels good knowing that someone has had a breakthrough in how they see the world around them, even for something as simple as words and numbers on a page. I truly mean it when I say my style of teaching is student-centered. I hold students responsible for explaining their work and choices. My motto is that you can only claim to know something i...

Mack
Math, Economics, Poli-Sci, & Writing
When I went to college I wasn't sure what I wanted to study, I had so many different passions and dreams. I wanted to be a doctor, a businessman, and a film director, but there weren't any programs that led to me being all of those--I had to choose, so I chose economics. I really enjoy economics because it combines several subjects that I'm really interested in; math, poli-sci, and business. Despite the fact that I could only follow one dream in school, I could still follow the rest of my dre... Read more
