Mark
English, History, Divinity, ACT, AP, College Apps.
What makes me an outstanding tutor is my passion for learning and my commitment to my students. The University of Illinois awakened my love for history, religions, and literature. Moreover, at the University of Chicago I grew exponentially at the hands of some of the world's greatest thinkers in religious studies. Just as precious was the hours after lecture at the Swift Hall Coffee shop or at a friend's apartment discussing these ideas. For me, conversation is much more play than work. ... Read more

Melissa
Biology, Nursing, Anat/Phys, test taking skills
I enjoy learning and sharing/teaching in many areas. After my first degree, I entered into biological field work for a year, but found it unsatisfying. I started working for myself and learning new skills, free-lancing as an independent contractor. At first challenging and fun, it became less so over the years and I found myself debating between going back to school in teaching or nursing. I enjoy working one on one with people to achieve mutual goals. I began teaching as a substitute a... Read more

I am a second year student of University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign with an urban planning major. I come from China and already got a Chinese Teaching Certification.

However, his writing and speaking skills were a little bit weak, so that I designed classes for him focusing on writing... Read more
