Elizabeth
I believe in positive reinforcement and patience.
I haven't always been good at writing. I feel like there was something missed between high school and college and it took me years to learn how to write a good essay. I don't want that to happen to you/your children. I can teach from the very basics of grammar and sentence construction to writing thesis statements and closing paragraphs. Writing can be a scary thing for a lot of people. I will guide them through it. In teaching literature and reading I am very passionate about people readi... Read more

Stuart
A Tutor You Can Depend On
If I could describe myself in three words, they would be goal-oriented, amicable, and reliable. Even though I don't have a teaching degree, I do have 2 1/2 years' experience as a high school and middle school substitute teacher; in other words, I compensate for proper training with professional knowledge. My tutoring methods could be best summarized as straightforward yet very hands-on, practical but creative. As for my personal background, I graduated from Illinois State University in 20... Read more
Chase
ACT, HSET, ISEE, and academic tutoring
During my two years as a tutor and teacher, I have learned that every student is unique. No two students learn the same way and some learn best through unconventional methods. That’s why I craft my approach to tutoring to mesh the individual learning styles of my students. I have helped students with a broad range of learning styles and skill sets achieve success both in school and on standardized tests. I am proud to say that I have received excellent reviews from every family I’ve worke... Read more
