Elementary Tutoring (For Grades K-9)
Welcome! Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I have been tutoring for over 6 years now and have teaching experiences as well. Although I love both experiences, tutoring brings the added benefits of being able to customize lessons in order to fit a particular child's specific needs. Watching the amazing growth that children make because of this is phenomenal. In addition, I believe that all children can become lifelong learners. Children are inherently curious and have a natural d... Read more
Robert
Experienced language professional and writer
When I started high school, I studied hard because my parents expected it. But then I had a French teacher who showed me that there were other and better reasons for studying. Her name was Frances Lutz. She found it exciting to introduce her students to the wonderful world of French language and culture. She inspired me to study---not only to please my parents or to get a good grade---but to experience the thrill of entering a foreign culture through its language and looking at life throu...

I have taught High School Math for the last 13 years. I love helping students to feel like math makes sense. I love seeing or hearing the "ah-ha" moment, when a student finally understands a concept, and it is like all the world makes sense. And their sense of accomplishment sky rockets! Math is all around us, in everything we do. The more we understand the math, the more we can understand the world. And understanding the world around us will help us to have well-educated citizens for the ... Read more

I will not only teach you Chinese language, but also history/culture
I received my undergraduate education in one of the best language institutes in China, and my master degree in Economics in UIC Chicago. I used to teach Chinese as part-time to foreigners who work in China as executives of world-famed enterprises, during which time I have found that most of them are actually not only interested in learning Chinese language but also the history and cultures of China, which dates back to 5000 years ago. It is extremely helpful to know about historical and cultural events when learning Chinese language. I also worked as teaching assistant when pursuing my master Read more
