I find students learn best when they are able to relate information from textbooks to their own lives and the world around them. I have taught both biology and anatomy & physiology and truly love seeing the moment when the information "clicks" for a student. Hands-on, visual, and problem-based learning are my specialties. Working with me, you will not only learn the subject matter, but more importantly, you will gain the ability to connect it back to the world around you. Each session with be... Read more

I taught my own children how to read using the phonetic method. Phonetics is the best method for teaching reading to younger children. It is a matter of emphasizing the basics of reading and then patiently working with the child to give that child the building blocks to grow into a confident reader. I was also a substitute teacher in the Carpenters Read more

Here to help you learn and get better
I believe that no matter how old or educated you are, you never stop learning new things in life. And the person who teaches others of what he has knowledge of, is the best amongst us. I used to give private tutoring lessons to middle school and high school students for 3 years, until a year ago because I wanted to concentrate on my studies more. Now i want to start again because I love teaching others and I am going to help you get better in your studies. I specialize in tutoring math an... Read more

Retired Correctional Counselor
I earned a Bachelors of Arts in Sociology with a 3.79 GPA. I retired as a Correctional Counselor with the Federal Bureau of Prisons.

Gabriel
A concise, stress-free, easy-to-understand approach to math
I have a degree in Mathematics from Benedictine University. I am a math fanatic and I want to spread that to people who think they dislike math. The only reason people get discouraged in math is if you don't get it, but once you do, it's an addictive feeling solving problems. I have been tutoring for five years and have had my Illinois Professional Educator license for three years. I love when my students say "this is so much easier than the way my teacher explained it" and when they are ... Read more
