With four graduate degrees in acupuncture and Chinese Medicine (Doctorate), education (MEd), business (MBA), and finance (MS), I have worked as an acupuncturist, herbalist, educator, writer, editor, researcher, marketer, financial analyst, and artist. I have tutored students in reading, English grammar, composition, and English as a second language. I have experience tutoring children and adults with reading disabilities. In my corporate career, I worked on proposals, marketing collateral materials, technical reports, and research materials for engineering and management consulting firms. In the financial industry, I worked as an analyst and researcher. I did some freelance writing, editing, and research work for two university finance professors and worked as a researcher for a technology startup. I have created two blogs about arts, culture, and lifestyle in Chicago and have written several articles about Chicago for local papers and a prominent social networking site. My interests include writing, reading (science fiction), art (watercolor and acrylic painting), and cooking.

Reviews

Amy took her time to read over the material for my class before our meeting. She is very thoughtful in her tutoring approach.

We reviewed a case study for my MBA class. We reviewed the entire case and she offered several different ideas for the required responses for the case. I feel better prepared for my class.

Great Tutor

Mrs. Amy R., absolutely knows her finance. She really helped me understand some of the fundamentals I was missing in class. Although I am not 100% confident in my knowledge of finance she definitely put me on the right track. I really appreciate her taking out the time in her schedule to be patient and help me find the tools I need to understand what I should be grasping in my finance class. Thanks again!
