Joseph
Fusion/Prog. Rock Guitar Tutor
As an accomplished guitarist and Composition major at Columbia College Chicago I am constantly being tested on my knowledge of musical styles, forms, and most importantly to me, theory. When it comes to music theory and my guitar playing I try to interconnect the two so that my playing sounds educated and informed, but still tasteful and full of emotion. I've been teaching lessons for the past year and with each student I try to instill a sense of just how important theory and knowledge of th... Read more

Gusiman
Experienced Tutor Specializing in Spanish Language and English
Hi, I'm Gusiman! I graduated in 2010 from UIUC, majoring in Spanish and English.

Developing the Differrentiated Learner!
I love math, and have enjoyed teaching it to students who need help. I understand that math can be complicated, and it is not something you get right away. I believe with practice and skill one can be better able to understand it. I know this because I also grew up not liking math but, ironically, ended up teaching it. I have taught Math for the past 4 years in one of the lowest performing schools in the city of Chicago. However, due to my professional development as a Math educator I was abl... Read more
