I have over 20 years of experience tutoring in math and science. I have a strong math and science foundation. I received my PhD in Molecular Genetics in 2006 from the University of Illinois at Chicago, and I currently work at the University of Chicago as a research scientist. I use math and science in my everyday life. My goal as a tutor is not only to help students learn math and science, but also to share my enthusiasm and passion for these subjects. When I work with students, I make sure...

Knowledgeable and consistent
Carrie worked with my son for most of the school year. She gave extra time when needed and explained concepts well. He got a B+ in the class, which says it all!

Extremely Knowledgeable
Carrie is extremely knowledgeable, as well as very patient. It has been quite a long time since I've been exposed to mathematical formulas. Carrie broke down formulas to help ease my apprehension. She supplied detailed hand-outs, highlighting key formulas with examples. Carrie also supplied mock take home ACT tests, with detailed time breakdowns for each section.

Professional and patient, very pleasant, effective
Both my daughter and I instantly liked Carrie's demeanor and approach. My daughter had very specific expectations of her tutor. Weaker in the math and science portions of the ACT, Carrie immediately devoted the first hour to math and the second to science. But rather than spending the entire hour of each subject just practicing test problems, each hour started off with a few practice problems. This was followed by a discussion on reasoning through a problem and other problem-solving techniques. This was exactly the type of help my daughter needed! We are very pleased.

Prompt and patient
My son expressed that he learned more from her than his teacher. I am very pleased with her promptness, patience and spirit. Carrie seems knowledgeable about the subject and demonstrates explanatory skills. This was his first lesson with her, but if first impression is everything, then I think his understanding will soar!
