Oi! I’m a passionate and very transparent person; I’ve always enjoyed learning and seemed to have a knack at understanding how my peers needed to be approached with a new or difficult concept in order to best grasp the knowledge necessary for homework sets and tests. My natural gifts at explanations for the mathematic and, particularly, physical science classes were developed through many, many one-on-one sessions with friends. Eventually my private lessons were well-known on my college campus as both beneficial and fun, so I began to experience tutoring with new referrals in my third year. Then my referrals began coming from professors and departments, which really marked the beginning of the business side of tutoring for me. I’ve been hooked ever since and even though it’s been a few years since I had private tutoring sessions, I did formally teach - at both the high school level and the collegiate level as a faculty member of Northeastern Illinois university and North Park University.
I’ve tutored mainly in the mathematics; specifically Pre-Algebra, algebra, precalculus and calculus, with a specific emphasis on their uses in science courses for chemistry and physics. I’ve designed courses for and lectured in: honors chemistry, honors physics, AP Chemistry, general chemistry for non-majors, general chemistry for majors, general chemistry laboratory for non-majors, general chemistry for majors, and organic chemistry lab for majors.
In my personal life I am a mother of two little humans, who are both inquisitive and demanding, but the lights of my life. I love to ride my bicycle, the outdoors, reptiles, jiu-jitsu, journaling and working with resin for crafting. My Ph.D. was completed at Loyola, here in Chicago, in 2016; my project was working with organic materials which could be modified using the Diels-Alder reaction in hopes of influencing their electronic properties.
