Bio

I love helping students to succeed. It is my job as a certified teacher in all the sciences and social sciences to help students become aware of their strengths and teach them methods to overcome their weaknesses. Usually just a few sessions and a lot a positive reinforcement will work wonders with a frustrated student. I consider my student's success as my measure of my own success.

I love helping students to succeed. It is my job as a certified teacher in all the sciences and social sciences to help students become aware of their strengths and teach them methods to overcome their weaknesses. Usually just a few sessions and a lot a positive reinforcement will work wonders with a frustrated student. I consider my student's success as my measure of my own success.

I have many years of teaching experience in all types of environments with all types of students. As a substitute in several districts for many years, I have been in all types of schools and classrooms. I have also taught in a private high school, college, the business world, and in a children's hands on science museum. My background is a broad brush of many different teaching experiences and I bring this experience to the table with each student I work with.

I began my teaching in the social science areas of Economics, Government (Political science) and Sociology and through additional schooling I have become certified in Psychology, AP U.S. History, World History, as well as AP Biology, AP Earth Science, Chemistry and Physics. I also love to write and have taught literature, composition, creative writing, and Argument and Rhetorical Analysis. I particularly like to help students analyze and improve their study skills and have been quite successful at this.

Please see an example of my work in the Lessons section where I wrote an explanation of Active Transport for the Biology section.

My tutoring area is between South Elgin and the north side of Aurora. Unfortunately, Naperville is just too far away to include.

If chosen, I will do my best to help your child succeed at his/her highest level possible.

I have a B.S. degree in Economics from Iowa State University. I have tutored many students over the years in both AP macro and micro economics. I love the subject and would like to pass the on to my students. I also can tutor *entry level* college courses. I find it an easy subject to tutor in because of my extensive background and because I enjoy it so much.

Grammar,

Grammar

I believe understanding the correct grammar of the English language will help students to write well across the curriculum and improve Reading comprehension and recall. I self study grammar on a regular basis and as a high/college writing & composition teacher believe it is a key component of speaking, writing and communicating with an impressive level of sophistication.

Proofreading

Proofreading

As an English composition and Creative Writing teacher I have a very high understanding of how important proofreading is. It is critically important for serious writers. I took an online class in editing and proofreading just to increase my skill and awareness on this topic. My students can tell you it is a topic I get really riled up about. It can make or break an otherwise good writer.

Study Skills,

Study Skills

Study skills is a subject area I have a great deal of experience in, ranging from grade school to college students. It covers such areas as organization, time management, how to read a textbook, how to find important information, test taking skills, and other topics. It is important to determine for each student what area they need the most help in and work from that starting point. As a certified secondary education teacher with a middle school endorsement I have had much education in how to help students who are struggling. I substitute taught for 8 years in Pre-K through seniors in high school and I worked with all sorts of children who needed special help in their studies. As a high school teacher I taught my students at the beginning of the school year good study practices and checked on them throughout the year. Just yesterday, I gave a lesson to my freshman, on how to properly understand a textbook and how it was organized so that the student could maximize their studying in the least amount of time. I feel very qualified to handle this topic at all age levels, from both my educational background and my experience with students of all ages.
Vocabulary

Vocabulary

I have been an avid reader all my life and I also enjoy writing. As a result, my vocabulary has become fairly large. People comment to me that they are impressed with my vocabulary and most editors and professors give me high marks on my writing. When I teach writing I also include vocabulary building, for to speak and write well is to make a good impression as an educated person.

English

ACT English,

ACT English

I am an experienced English teacher and also write a lot for both a hobby and for business. I am very well versed in grammar, style and mechanics of the English language. I am also quite knowledgeable about test taking skills and teach/tutor them routinely. Between these two major skills, I feel I am well qualified to tutor for the ACT English exam.
ACT Reading,

ACT Reading

I have been tutoring high school students for a long time in the ACT test and am quite comfortable with it. I have excellent grades in English language and literature and have taught World Literature and Creative Writing at a small private high school. I feel my reading comprehension is quite high.

English

I love to read and write. I am naturally good at writing and do it for an avocation. I take great pride in my writing and love to play with words, sentences, etc. I have taught World Literature, Creative Writing, English 101 and 102 with a slight ESL feature to it, and last, Argumentation and Rhetorical Analysis. I also love literature and very much like teaching literature to children. I encourage a love of books and the reading process.

SAT Writing,

SAT Writing

I have done a lot of writing in my life for various purposes and have always received excellent scores and nice comments. I am very good in grammar and interested enough in the use of correct grammar to look up questions I might have. This practice of course improves your subject knowledge. There is more to writing than just knowing the rules though and that is style and voice. I understand these concepts and have taught them rigorously when I taught English and Creative Writing. I feel I can help students learn a checklist of things to do to get a high score on the SAT writing test.

American History

I am certified in the state of Illinois as a secondary education teacher with a middle school endorsement. I passed a certification test which enables me to to teach Advanced Placement U.S. History. I have taught AP U.S. History at the high school level. I am a history buff and do some in person performances. I have belonged to two Civil War Roundtables and have visited many Civil War Battlefields as well as other historical sites. I love history and make it come alive for my students. History should be personal and dynamic, not boring and dry.
Geography,

Geography

I am a certified secondary education Social Studies teacher with an undergraduate major in economics and minors in political science and sociology. I had many courses with geography as a theme running through them. I have also had World Geography. I find geography and interesting topic which is shamefully not taught or not taught well by our schools. I always incorporate geography into my classes where ever I can.
Government & Politics

Government & Politics

I have a degree in Economics and it required me to take enough credits in government that I went ahead and got a minor in it. I am currently certified to teach government at the AP level in high school. In addition my son worked for the the national Obama campaigns both times, and I got to learn about all the behind the scenes things that go on in a Political campaign, from staff recruitment, to resource allocation, to securing office space, to mass communications and to public relations. It was extremely informative to see all that happens. I feel very comfortable in this subject.

Great tutor; thoughtful and thorough.

We use Diane for study skills so far and she’s been great with my daughter helping her develop very a tangible and effective plan to attack school work, exams, and quizzes. We plan to use her for Biology ad well in the future. We’ve been using Diane for Biology prep this summer and the sessions have been going great. Diane is a wonderful teacher who spends so much time with my daughter. I’m super appreciative of her

Knowledgeable, kind, patient tutor for my teen

Diane is wonderful! She has been tutoring my teen in a few different subjects, primarily APUSH and SAT prep. My daughter enjoys her tutoring sessions and has they have a great repore together. My daughter is obviously more confident in her studies and her grades have improved. We are very happy to have found Diane and will be continuing to schedule her for as long as we can. Thank you, Diane!

Ms. Diane is great!

Diane is an excellent teacher. She is knowledgeable and responsible. Her pro-active teaching really helps my son to improve his biology. My son loves her class. Thank you.

Knowledgeable and helpful to my daughter

Gave my daughter more confidence in the subject of AP Bio and was patient with her throughout. Continually asked questions to ensure that my daughter understood. Only issue was that that the session went on for 2.25 hours. Too much time for my senior to continue to absorb and cost more than I anticipated.

Brenda, 1 lesson with Diane
Tutor responded:

The goal for that single lesson was to go through the study guide for the upcoming test. The study guide was 4 single spaced typed pages and covered 3+ very technical chapters in the book. I worked as quickly and efficiently as I could to accomplish the stated objective. Either you or your daughter could have stopped the lesson at any time. I was trying my very hardest to help your daughter cover all the material to be on her test. She was tired, but still attentive when we ended. She was a very nice student and I enjoyed working with her very much.

knowledgeable and helpful tutor

Diane worked with my daughter to help prepare her for the English, reading, and science sections of the ACT test. Diane was thorough and patient during the tutoring sessions and developed a good relationship with my daughter. Diane wanted my daughter to succeed and worked diligently with her to that end. Now that the ACT is over, Diane and my daughter plan to continue tutoring to improve her study skills as my daughter prepares for college next year.
