I was born and raised in Germany, where I earned a Master's Degree and a Ph.D in Mechanical Engineering from one of the top Universities. I started working for a large, multi-national company and took the opportunity to transfer to the U.S. some 25 years ago. Since then, I have worked for large and small companies, held several consulting jobs, and I am now retired.

Hello! I hope you're as excited as I am to get your math scores up. If you hate math, I promise a session with me won't be torture.

Dear Students and Parents, my name is Elizabeth Ives, and I have degrees in both art (my BFA from the School at the Art Institute of Chicago) and pre-modern history (MA from Villanova University). I have a passion for both, with a special interest fashion history. I have found that history is often seen as a boring subject made up of names and dates, people you have a limited connection to, and things that seem very far away. Indeed some course work does make history seem that way. During... Read more

Do I have experience teaching? Yes, but not the kind that you might think. I've been working in Advertising and Package Design since 1989 (I know - a long time). And during that time, one of my responsibilities was to teach incoming staff applicants, the process of creating designs, brain storming, gathering information and putting it all together to get the best and most vibrant layout. And throughout this entire time, everyone told me that I should of been a teacher. I love being a Graph... Read more
