Steve
Former Reading Specialist Turned Stand Up Comedian
Hi, My name is Steve. I was a reading teacher in Granada, Spain for 1 year and then became a Title 1 Reading Teacher at Palatine High School.

Proofreading, Essay writing assistance, and IL bar exam tutoring
I am a licensed Illinois attorney, with a background in writing and literature. As the daughter of two English professors, the importance of reading and studying was always emphasized as I grew up. As a result, writing and schoolwork came easily to me, but I frequently studied with classmates who struggled. Since I was in seventh grade, I stayed after school to help friends study and prided myself when they were able to improve their grades. Many people feel overwhelmed or don't know wher... Read more
