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. Due to my upbringing I am fluent in English, French and Arabic. I received my Bachelor's in French in 2002 from Loyola University Chicago. There I majored in International Studies and French. I went back to school in 2005 to become a teacher and received my Education Certification from Elmhurst College in 2008. I h... Read more

Daniel
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

Elementary Tutor with Illinois Teaching Certification
By day, I teach within the Chicago Public School system. I work with kindergartners and first graders on the south side of Chicago. My passion is working with youth and helping them to succeed. As a teacher, I recognize the pitfalls of the American education system and see how often classrooms become overcrowded and how students fall behind due to the lack of individualized attention. All parent/guardians want the best fro their children and that is to simply excel in life. As a tutor, I hav... Read more
Arnie
English Teacher & Published Author for Winning Writing Skills
My Teaching Philosophy: I firmly believe that anyone can learn to write if given the proper encouragement and atmosphere. Consequently, I work hard to create a dynamic environment in which your son or daughter can receive creative help, utilize their own inherent abilities and discover how skills learned in composition apply to their overall education and lives beyond college. We are all natural storytellers, and earning how to write an effective essay is a matter of honing this abilit... Read more

Not only a teacher in Chinese language, but also in Chinese Cultures
I am a mother of two teenage girls, and definitely know what it's like to be a tutor:) I received my undergraduate education in one of the best language institute in China, and my master degree in Economics in UIC Chicago. When I worked part-time teaching foreigners who work in China as executives in world-famous enterprises, I found most of them not only interested in learning language itself but also the long history and cultural backgrounds of the country. It is extremely helpful knowing about a country's historical and cultural background when you learn the language. I am good at BOTH!! Read more
