- $40 / h
- Lake in the Hills , Illinois ( 60156 )
- 40 miles
Hi, potential students! My name is Tony and I am a high school History and English teacher just outside of DeKalb, Illinois. As of today, my fourth year in the classroom has begun! I am what they consider "highly qualified" in both subjects since I have bachelors degrees in each, though I didn't know that in advance (I just really loved taking those courses). I wrote for the campus newspaper at NIU, I blog, and I write 100% of my own curriculum. I'm eagerly anticipating starting my tutori... Read more

Carole
I taught ESL at Elgin Community College for 20 years
I specialize in Listening and Speaking and preparing professionals to enter the workplace. I can teach you how to verbally interact and stay focused and become fluent in your professional life. Comfort in speech is my goal for you. Following and giving directions and understanding what others are saying to you is what we will concentrate on. The program I taught was called Focal Skills, where students began with listening skills, moved to reading, then writing, and finally listening/speaking.... Read more

Dan for Social Studies, Film, Criminal Justice, Psychology
Hello, my name is Dan, and I have been a lifelong educator in a number of teaching, tutoring, and training settings. From the time I was in high school, I knew that I wanted to teach history, geography, and psychology. It has allowed me to not only be creative in the classroom but also to strive to build new life skills within my students. I was fortunate to attend Illinois State University in the teacher education program and successfully completed both the academic requirements and t... Read more
Cate
Experienced Teacher, Tutor, Homeschool Mother
- $35 / h
- Crystal Lake , Illinois ( 60014 )
- 15 miles
I love to help the "light bulb" turn on in a student's brain. It is such a rewarding experience for me to work with an individual, finding just the "right" way to explain a concept. Each of the students I teach, whether as young as a pre-schooler or the most experienced life, thirst for knowledge. I feel privileged to share information, explain a similarity, or relate a personal situation in order to make the connection "stick" and grow. The wondrous challenge that stimulates me to ke...

Until the age of 12, when I was not occupied with schoolwork, I rode my bicycle to the nearest rivers and creeks to search for frogs and turtles, I visited the library and read all I could find on the habits and habitat of these and other creatures native to Southeastern Wisconsin. Some of that must have rubbed off on my son who is a botanist at the Morton Arboretum. When I was in seventh grade, a boys choir was started at the grade school I attended and so began my lifelong love of music... Read more
Roger
At the intersection of Tutoring and Teachability
I turned down my first paid job offer as a technical writer because I thought it would “ruin my style.†Then I saw the light and actually got paid to write industrial technical stuff. I went on to write for various contract and self-employed tech writing gigs, including software documentation and user guides. I’ve worked as a college-level tutor and as an adjunct English instructor. I've tutored a grad student as he rewrote his master’s thesis. He got his degree. I've ghost-edited two... Read more
Robert
Detail Oriented Tutor
My love of tutoring comes from my love of learning. I want to help students reach their goals and see their test scores improve. With an MBA and bachelors degree I know that hard work and dedication can pay off. I helped students in the computer lab with their homework when I was going to school. I am available every day from 400pm to 1000pm and any time on the weekends. My goal is to help students improve test scores and do homework with ease without struggle. I assign homework, give tips...
