You CAN Succeed!
I taught Sociology and Women's Studies at Oakton Community College for 28 years. And I love helping students succeed. I can help young students considering college for the first time or adults who are returning to college: figure out the financial aid maze, learn study strategies, learn how to write a college level paper, time management, and anything else that you think might be a barrier to your success. I believe people learn when the subject being taught is relevant and interesti... 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
