Dylan
Chicago-based Social Studies Tutor
I am a firm believer in the adage, "Education is the key to success." Though this phrase perhaps has been overused to the point of becoming a hollow cliche, I believe it still carries profound significance. It speaks to the importance of education not only for the success of an individual, but for society as a whole. Education opens doors. It is for this reason that I decided to channel my time and energy into the field of education and working with students to help them to continually grow a... Read more

Hello, I am a student at DePaul in their M.A. in Writing and Publishing program.

English Grad Who Loves Literature!
I like to think I have lots of experience tutoring, as I have been informally doing it since I was in grade school; helping other kids with difficult reading and writing assignments always felt so effortless, and rewarding. I proofread papers in college, then went to tutor in my university's tutoring center for a semester, which I really liked. Several months after graduation, I joined a tutoring site which allows me to travel around the city of Chicago and tutor students of all ages. I curre... Read more
