Andrea
6 Years Experience, Specializing in Precalculus and Algebra
Oh hello! I graduated from IWU with two degrees, one in Math and the other Secondary Education. I also have a minor, and therefore endorsement in Theatre Arts. I've been tutoring since I was in high school, as I found that not only was I learning better when I taught, but being able to help my friends understand was far more rewarding. On top of that, I didn't even like math for a long time until I had a particular teacher. So you can imagine I was given quite the role model in her, and I hop... Read more

Ali
Experienced Tutor Specializing in Math
I’m Ali and I am currently studying for my Bachelor’s degree in Aerospace Engineering! Ever since I was a little girl I have asking the question, how? How does an airplane fly? How does the toaster make toast? I enjoy solving puzzles and finding solutions to problems. This combined with my preference towards math has made engineering the perfect path for me. I am a firm believer that everyone can learn, we just don’t all learn in the same manner. Some people need to watch others before try... Read more

Bill
Seasoned English Teacher - Tutor for Writing, Reading, Test Prep
All kids can learn, so it is imperative to meet them where they are and value where they are. From this place of acknowledgement and respect, I feel like I stand a chance of engaging kids in meaningful inquiry of their lives through literature and written expression. Once I know the student, then we can proceed to build on their skills. I listen well, and I encourage students to learn for the sake of learning, not necessarily to improve grades or test scores (although, those improvements wil... Read more
