Jonathan
Tutor in History, Government, and Music
I started off college as a Music Education major, but soon realized that my true passion lies in politics and the law. I changed my major to Political Science and graduated this past December. Once I changed majors I immediately sought out a vast array of opportunities in order to get as much experience as possible. I studied abroad for a semester at the University of Westminster in London, England, where I took classes in both history and politics, one class focusing on political gaming w... Read more

Nancy Mokena, IL
I began substitute teaching in 1991. I did this for 13 years, substitute teaching in grades K-8. In 2002, I returned to school and obtained my Masters in Elementary Education in 2004. Later that same year I was hired to teach second grade and did this up until this past year. I loved teaching but am now at the stage of my life where I would rather be employed at a part-time basis. While teaching full-time, I also tutored students during the summer months. I loved tutoring as I did this on a ... Read more

I have two passions in life: photography and making connections with people. These two processes intertwine in the most seductive way to create a utopian realm of harmony. In my opinion, art is one of the most powerful ways one can expand his or her mind, creativity, language, and identity. When composing life's most meaningful moments, I like to explore the unconventional ways of representing the conventional; extraordinary views of the ordinary. I like to take nothing and turn it into s... Read more

Christine
Licensed teacher specializing in reading, math and writing!
Before I became a teacher, I was a lawyer for 15 years. I had fun arguing with other lawyers and cross-examining witnesses, but I decided to evolve after my son was born. He struggled with a few issues in elementary school and it was there that I realized how powerful teaching, and thoughtful, targeted intervention, can be. I went back to school, earned my Master's Degree in Education, and am now a licensed teacher! I love problem solving, thinking outside the box, and having fun while te... Read more
