Ben
Math tutor with humor, patience, and extensive knowledge
I am a Mechanical Engineering major who used to hate math too! I have seen the error of my ways and now enjoy learning about math and physics. I am familiar with peer tutoring at the college level through my Junior College Math Lab. It greatly improved my knowledge and one-on-one skills. I love helping students grasp the concepts and solutions they are struggling with. This enables them to improve their tests and scoring and lessen the dread of such challenges. I require dedication and pe... Read more
Benjamin
Math, Physics, Science, I'm there
Hi! I'm a current undergraduate student studying Mechanical Engineering at Northern Illinois University. I'm currently of junior status and holding a 4.0 GPA. I've always had a passion for math and physics, my two strongest areas. They both come to me intuitively and I love exploring different ways of approaching a problem. This means I can show alternative ways, often easier to the student, that aren't taught in the classroom. I have some tutoring experience from helping peers in high ... Read more

Kelly
MOS Certified Excel Expert Who Wants to Help
I was in the Reference and Genealogy departments for a public library for 20 years and it was so much fun! I loved meeting people where they were and helping them find the answers they looked for. Part of helping people included teaching computer classes and tutoring whoever walked in the door, for over 15 years! What I learned along the way is that people can be intimidated by or not know how to take the next step with some Microsoft products. With years of experience, I can change how I am... Read more

Hannibal
Philosophy tutoring through Dialect Conceptual Understanding
I'm a passionate lifetime student of philosophy. I'm working towards the end of my Master in Philosophy at the moment. As a student, I've always found understanding things to be much more enjoyable, useful, and powerful compared to memorization. This is why I prefer to teach through logic and conceptual understanding. It is my goal to make sure that my students first and foremost have an understanding of the topic that they are reading. Developing reading comprehension is a skill that is bene... Read more

Together we can make you the next Einstein
I am currently going to school to be a math teacher. I am working on the side tutoring some children that are in the middle school-high school level and work with a few college students. I would love to end up teaching high school one day. I got into math because I believe that the education system in Illinois needs to be fixed and am amazed on how some people don't know simple math. I am using my math abilities to help the general population and slowly start to improve our illiteracy. I prom... Read more
