Ben
Math tutor with humor, patience, and extensive knowledge
I am a Mechanical Engineering major who used to hate math too! I have seen the error of my ways and now enjoy learning about math and physics.

Math, Physics, Science, I'm there
Hi! I'm a current undergraduate student studying Mechanical Engineering at Northern Illinois University. I'm currently of junior status and holding a 4.0 GPA.

Kelly
MOS Certified Excel Expert Who Wants to Help
I was in the Reference and Genealogy departments for a public library for 20 years and it was so much fun! I loved meeting people where they were and helping them find the answers they looked for. Part of helping people included teaching computer classes and tutoring whoever walked in the door, for over 15 years! What I learned along the way is that people can be intimidated by or not know how to take the next step with some Microsoft products. With years of experience, I can change how I am... Read more
