I am a graduate of The Monmouth College where I received a Bachelor's of Arts in Biochemistry. Currently, I attend The University of Illinois at Chicago in pursuit of my Doctor of Pharmacy. While at Monmouth I was involved in various tutoring/teaching positions. I served as the supplemental instructor of analytical chemistry, teaching assistant for general chemistry, and cadaver dissection team member. Through the experience of being a student and a tutor, I have learned the unique challenges the science student encounters. As a student athlete in both high school and college, I understand the difficulties of time management and the importance of maintaining success in the classroom. Attending a small college allowed my passion for biology and chemistry to flourish through the close relationships I made with my peers and professors. I bring this hands-on approach I was given in my undergrad to my students by pinpointing their exact needs to ensure material is not just memorized, but understood. Outside of my science pursuits I enjoy reading, hiking, and exploring my city of Chicago.

I am an experienced elementary educator with over a decade of teaching experience, including serving as a 2nd-, 4th-, and 6th-grade classroom teacher. I hold both a Master's degree and a Doctorate in Education, with a specialization in social studies education. I have worked with a wide range of learners and understand the developmental differences across elementary grades, which helps me tailor instruction to meet each child exactly where they are. I am especially skilled at supporting students who feel overwhelmed by reading-heavy assignments, unfamiliar vocabulary, or fast-paced classroom instruction. My tutoring style is calm, supportive, and highly personalized. I begin by identifying what your child finds confusing and then break concepts down into clear, age-appropriate steps using discussion, visuals, examples, and guided practice. I focus on helping students truly understand what they are learning not just complete an assignment while building confidence, comprehension, and strong thinking skills. Families appreciate that I am patient, organized, and communicative, and that I help students feel more capable and confident talking about social studies at school.

Hi!My name is Charles! I am a passionate and enthusiastic teacher of logics and various other crafts. I am a member of the LGBTQ community, and I would love to teach and support other students in that community. Of course I am also happy to teach anyone else too!I have worked as a tutor with students of all ages from 4 to 40 in a variety of study areas including mathematics (basics, geometry, algebra, calculus), computer science and reading. My approach to tutoring is primarily conversational, meaning I evaluate students' current knowledge and needs by listening to them.I graduated from the University of Illinois at Chicago in 2015 with a Bachelor's of Science in Computer Science.

I am a graduate of Grand Valley State University with a major in biology, a minor in mathematics, and a provisional teaching certificate for secondary education (grades 7-8 all subjects; grades 9-12 biology and math). I also have advanced degrees in biochemistry, physiology, cell and molecular biology. While a graduate student at the University of Illinois, I taught introductory and advanced courses in biology as a teaching assistant. I am passionate about biology, or shall I say, the study of life. As a scientist in the biotech industry, I used my math and chemistry skills daily.My teaching/tutoring style is to impart enough information and understanding of a topic to direct a learner toward self-education and problem solving. My style is not to provide the answer, but to guide one in knowing how to arrive at the answer. This approach has served me well in my professional career, as well as in my personal life. I find myself always challenged with learning new things, and self-learning is the key. For example, to advance my professional career, I took an online course in statistics. In my personal life, in order to become a better coach to my sons baseball team, I went to the web and studied videos on fielding, batting, throwing and pitching, and used this knowledge to run practices and develop players. My professional career has been in biotech, where I have been a mentor and trainer to colleagues, and an educator and resource to customers toward understanding the application of advanced technologies. Also, as part of my professional career, I had the opportunity to live in France and to further develop my French language skills. After moving to the US from Montreal, I took French language classes to continue to develop my grammar. As an adult, I lived in France for two years and received a Diplome de Langue Francaise avec mention assez bien (high honors) through Alliance Francaise. I enjoy sharing this language and culture with others.I am looking for new students who are eager to learn, and who want to develop their own learning skills. You may be struggling with a subject, but with time, patience, practice and a tutoring approach geared toward your learning style, you will succeed, grow confident, master a subject, and become a self-learner.

I started teaching during graduate school at University of Illinois Urbana Champaign where I got my PhD in Physiology. I am currently a Biology Professor teaching Anatomy and Physiology as well as Genetics and Molecular Biology. My teaching philosophy consists of three parts, presenting information through different media types to help students who learn better visually, linking topics to current events, and providing skills students will learn outside of school. I believe these ideas will help students not only learn the material but will help them retain in by seeing how the ideas taught in class apply to their life. My areas of expertise primarily focuses on Biology, with a focus on Anatomy and Physiology as well as molecular Biology. I can also help with math and science down to the middle school level.

Learning requires active involvement and attentively engaging with the material. This process can be at times frustrating and challenging, but ultimately a gratifying feeling. Opening a text book and feeling the increasing anxiety as you flip through unknown pages of what can only be viewed as a new language can repress the learning process. Nearly everyone at one point in their life feels overwhelmed and demurred about a specific subject. This feeling push someone away from learning something new and truly affect their ability to grow. I can understand this and have dealt with this in my own learning process.As an aspiring physician and an avid science lover, I am interested in not only medical science, but also ecology, evolution, biotechnology, and other related fields. I recall the difficulty of wrapping my head around specific concepts in chemistry, physics, and biology classes. My early struggles were amplified by my lackluster enthusiasm to understand why even this knowledge was relevant. Often times I would feel disconnected with what I was learning. This issue affected my foundational knowledge in sciences and it took me time to realize that without understanding the basics it becomes seemingly impossible to incur further knowledge. It is evident that many concepts are a continuum and by building upon previous knowledge can help consolidate new information. I find this as a paradigm in my learning philosophy; to thoroughly understand an essential point before moving on to the next subject. By retaining the foundational knowledge, it is much easier to apply and visit new, complex, information. Moreover, I believe learning is parceled into various tasks from listening, reading, writing, practicing and ultimately teaching to fully understand and retain new information. This is known as the ‘learning pyramid’ and can be very useful as a template.I constantly apply the ‘learning pyramid’ throughout my studies, beginning with attentive hearing at the basic level and reinforcing the subject material by reading and writing notes. After I felt confident with handling the material, group discussions can help reconsolidate the details and further solidify the major points. I truly believe that group work, used correctly, can help facilitate comprehension. This strategy was useful during my masters at Georgetown University, an accelerated one year program, which focused on physiology and biophysics aligning with the medical school curriculum. I was able to excel in the system-based modules by utilizing a steady academic focus alone and supplemented with group discussions between 3 to 4 students. During these group discussions, I realized the influence of teaching my fellow peers on improving my own interpretation. This marked the beginning of my interests in tutoring, specifically subjects that I am enthusiastic about. These include chemistry, biochemistry, physiology, anatomy, pathophysiology, and other science based subjects.My fellow group members and I would teach each other the material, we would practice explaining out individual thought process. This method enabled an active learning process with an emphasis on the main point plus important details. As a tutor, I would emphasize the major points and push my student to ask questions, be attentive, and then be able to successfully teach me. The learning process can be difficult at times, as I explained earlier, can push a student away from an interesting and exciting subject. My focus would be to improve the student’s knowledge about the topic by discussing why it is important and highlighting potential benefits of understanding the material. By enticing a student and tapping into their enthusiasm can evolve into a new found educational motivation. The best experience I can wish for is a student to learn something new, but also to apply learning strategies to other subjects and became a better academic scholar.

I am a graduate of University of Illinois at Chicago where I received my Bachelor of Arts in English Education. Since graduation, I have experienced many wonderful teaching and tutoring opportunities. Currently, I teach writing, grammar, British Literature, and Contemporary Literature at one of the oldest alternative high schools in the nation. I began teaching Survey of Literature and American Literature at the high school level ten years ago. I also taught British Literature and World Literature in a "No Child Left Behind" evening school program. My tutoring experiences throughout the years have been fun and interesting. In college, I was a part time tutor for our university's tutoring center, tutoring other college students and helping them with their language and writing skills. I have also participated in various after-school tutoring programs and standardized-test tutoring programs. Education is important to me, and it is important to always keep in mind the skill levels of every diverse learner I work with. After all, if students don't learn the way we teach, then we need to teach them the way they learn. I'm an extremely positive and enthusiastic person not only as an educator but as a person in general. In my spare time, I enjoy walking, cooking, throwing boomerangs, reading, and playing backgammon.

I am a medical student who took time off between my 3rd and 4th year to conduct orthopedic research at NYU medical center. I love the medical field and would like to pursue a career in orthopedics. The aspect of medicine that I hold most dearly is always having interaction and hopefully having a change to leave a positive impression. I enjoy meeting new people and hearing their story. If there is anything I can do to help them on their journey, it would be my pleasure. I grew up outside of Chicago, have travelled around the world, and snowboard as much as I can every winter. I've always been interested in medicine and that goal has always driven me to try my hardest and be all that I can be, not only in school, but in every aspect of life. That's my story, but I want to hear yours. Let me help you reach your goals.
