Private tutor in Park Ridge, IL

Education

- Maine South High School. - Current undergraduate student at Georgetown University (Class of 2018). I took numerous AP and Advanced courses. ACT scores are in 97th percentile (Science--99th percentile).

Experience

I am college student who is truly passionate about helping students learn. I believe it is incredibly rewarding. I have have great tutoring experience both tutoring privately and at Washington Interventional School in D.C. My tutoring experience includes: ACT, high school and middle school subjects- and AP exams. Furthermore, I have additional experience working with kids and teens in other roles. For 4+ years, I served on the Des Plaines Library's Teen Advisory Board.I also was a volunteer in in the library's Children's Summer Reading Program in 2012 and 2013. I also have extensive experience working with children in hospitals and volunteers of all ages in my role in the nonprofit charity Cards for Hospitalized Kids (CFHK). My work in CFHK has taught me valuable communication, organizational and problem solving skills. I believe these experiences all enhance my ability to be an effective tutor. I am very passionate about education. I have learned many lessons on the long road to attending Georgetown University. The road included many struggles. I had to work very hard. I was fortunate to have tutors and mentors who guided me through those struggles. I am very passionate about now helping students the way people previously helped me. In my tutoring, I work hard to create practice problems and take home materials or study-guides to help my students further master the material. I believe tutoring is an opportunity not just improve a student's skills in a particular subject but also to help a student build strong academic skills that will help them overall. (i.e: organizational, studying, etc.)
