Kevin

Certified Tutor

Hello!
My name is Kevin and I have been an academic tutor and mentor for over five years. I primarily tutor students in biology, chemistry, and English. I also prepare students for college admission exams (SAT and ACT) with a primary focus on Reading Comprehension and Language and Writing (grammar). I've had quite the personal academic journey: after earning my BS in Molecular and Cell Biology from The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, I was accepted into The University of Illinois at Chicago, College of Dentistry. Out of nearly 1,700 applicants, I was fortunate to be selected as a DMD candidate along with 65 other students (DMD Class of 2015). I completed three years of the program, earning 128 graduate credit hours along the way. I love the biomedical sciences, but after a year of strictly clinical practice, I found very little passion in the field of dentistry and decided to withdraw from the program.
I am now actively applying to law school; I hope to attend Northwestern's prestigious College of Law.
I have an array of experience and knowledge to share with students, and I love tutoring, Teaching and mentoring students has been one of my most consistent and rewarding experiences of my life.
