Tim
Passionate Ivy League Test Prep and Math Tutor - 1600 SAT/177 LSAT
Hi there! My name is Tim, and I would love to work with you! Here's a little bit about me: I graduated from Columbia University in 2023, and am currently working at a local law firm. I'm currently figuring out where I will attend law school in the fall, and so far have been accepted to law schools like Harvard, Columbia, and NYU. Through both the college and law school application processes, I had to learn to master standardized tests like the SAT and LSAT. But this didn't come easy - the... Read more

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

Chinese Teaching
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. Last summer, I had some experience about teaching Chinese. My student was a fresh year college boy from Russia. He has some basic knowledge about PINYIN, a system of Chinese pronunciation and Chinese input. However, his writing and speaking skills were a little bit weak, so that I designed classes for him focusing on writing... Read more
