Monsieur Français
I was raised in Egypt where I went to a French Jesuit school since kindergarten. My education from Kindergarten to my freshmen year in High School was completely in French.

Elementary school teacher at CPS
I have been teaching grades 3-8 for the past 12 years. I have taught reading, social studies, language arts, and math. My specialty is math though, and I have an average rate of 75% of my students meeting or exceeding their goal on the NWEA test. I am able to get these results with 30 students in a class, so with one on one tutoring, I know the results would even be greater. I really enjoy teaching and I find nothing better than seeing a student succeed from me helping them. One thing tha... Read more

Let's make history meaningful--not just memorize a timeline!
I fell in love with history only when I hit high school - when I was able to see the human side to it, and my teachers made it meaningful for me. Since then, I've been committed to teaching this subject with passion, purpose and a progressive lens. I love working with students in small groups and 1:1--it's easier to have in-depth conversations, practice critical thinking skills, and meet each student where they're at. Certified to teach history to students in grades 9-12, I bring an inter... Read more

Engaging and Efficient Post-Grad English Tutor
I believe the best teachers are the ones who constantly and continually seek to acquire more knowledge and expand their horizons, no matter how many degrees they have or years they've spent in the classroom. This passion and thirst for knowledge is what I want to share with my students, because learning should be fun and satisfying, never a chore. With a combined 8 years of teaching experience - Speech, English as a Second Language, and Computer Skills - I have found working with students to... Read more

Medical student tutoring in math, science, and writing
As a 1-on-1 tutor, I worked with high school students to prepare them for AP chemistry and SAT math. I made personalized learning plans for each of the students.

During the three years as ... Read more
