Elizabeth
Creative Writing Tutor
I am a current graduate student at Columbia College where I am writing a novel which also is my thesis. I wrote and performed a one woman show when living in Los Angeles. I decided I loved writing more than acting. I have tutored fiction writing at Columbia College for the past two years and taught Columbia College's Story Workshop method to a fifth grade class at Paul Revere Intermediate School. Why do I love about tutoring? Everything. Guiding a student from a story's begining to end. H... Read more

Alexsia
PhD in Microbiology for Microbiology and Genetics Tutoring
My desire to teach arose during my undergraduate studies at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh. Like many students I had both good and bad professors during my time at school but what intrigued me was what made a good professor so engaging and likewise what made the bad professors so unbearable. All too often science is presented as a blur of long words, and complicated equations. While these are certainly elements of scientific research, such a heavy emphasis on this during the early yea...

Over the past few years I have developed a love of Chicago history and culture and have worked as a... Read more

Throughout high school and college I had various experiences with education—from teaching reading at the Polo Grounds Community Center, to one-on-one tutoring, to running an arts program at two local elementary schools. I then accepted a job teaching 3rd and 4th grade at the Education Achievement Authority’s Bethune Elementary/Middle School in Detroit, MI, beginning in August 2012. I remained in this role for two years, and then spent one year writing curriculum for an elementary school compu... Read more
