Experience

Contact me directly at www.chicagosciencetutor.com WHO? I am friendly yet firm. Full of energy and patience. Love learning as much as teaching. I have 5 years of classroom teaching experience and 2 years of one-on-one tutoring experience. 31 on ACT. IL Certified Math and Science Teacher. WHY? I am a teacher because that is what I do best. I love math and science and have a gift in being able to explain the most complex concepts to others. WHAT? I am a real certified teacher with a DEGREE IN SCIENCE and a DEGREE in EDUCATION, so not only do I know the content, but I know how to teach it. I discuss learning goals with the student (and parents). Then I assess the student's needs and current understanding before tutoring begins. I will design personalized lessons to reach the learning goals. Assessment is part of my practice and ensures the student's goals have been met and areas of need are remedied with additional instruction. My favorite subjects are Algebra and Physics. DISCOUNTS: Rate is reduced for visits 2 hours or more. Package deals. Ask me about special rates for summer preview courses in Calculus or AP Physics/ College Physics. For those that consider private school, hiring a part-time tutor for certain subjects is much less expensive. For parents that would like to homeschool but need to work, a private educator is a good option that still allows for you to be the primary influencer of your child’s academic goals and learning environment. As your child’s tutor, I work directly for you and your child so you can be assured that you will receive the best value for an affordable cost. There are many packaged homeschool math and science curriculum materials and products including workbooks and online courses , which can be wonderful, but most of them are not free. As an experienced teacher, I can provide all of that information for you while designing a personalized curriculum for your child, all the while still having a real live math and science expert guiding your learner. After all, avoiding the cookie-cutter system is one of the top reasons parents choose to homeschool. ONLINE TUTORING also available at a lower rate. NO VIDEO CAMERA NECESSARY.

I love nature and the beach, and am very lucky to be able to take walks along the shore of Lake Michigan simply by stepping outside of my door. I enjoy cooking healthy meals for my family and myself. Yoga and dance keep me healthy and happy too.
