I have over 20 years of experience in the classroom where I have taught every math class from Algebra 1 to Calculus BC.

I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering and then went on to obtain a Master's degree in mathematics education. I have over 20 years of experience in the classroom where I have taught every math class from Algebra 1 to Calculus BC. In addition, because of my engineering background, I taught Physics, Chemistry, and Environmental Science. I hold a current "highly qualified" teaching certificate for mathematics from the state of Illinois. I pride myself on finding ways for each student to find success. I understand that education is not one size fits all. If one method doesn't click, I'll find another way to approach the problem, so that my students can grasp the concept.

In addition to my classroom experience, I have tutored students throughout my entire career. I work both in person and through online platforms. Many of my students have worked with me through their entire high school careers and into college. I am an easygoing person who helps my students feel at ease first, and then make sense of the material. I have helped many students improve their grades and achieve success in their math courses. I meet students where they are and help them improve and find their own confidence. I will never add stress to your life, my goal is to reduce it. Your success is my success!

Caring, Goes Above and Beyond!

Maureen was a FANTASTIC calculus tutor. Before I started tutoring with her, I was averaging 50% or less on every quiz or exam in calculus 1. I was considering dropping the course. During my first session with Maureen, she explained concepts in a way I understood, helped me work through problems, and created an environment in which I felt comfortable asking questions. Not only did she help me to catch up and pass calculus 1, but she helped me to excel in calculus 2, earning a very high B and an average of 85% or above on quizzes and exams. She single handedly saved my GPA, and I will miss meeting with her weekly! I highly recommend!

Very knowledgeable and great communication skills

Maureen met with my 16 year old daughter who had not been tutored online before (only in person) and she was excellent! She knew what to ask and immediately start providing chemistry help. We will definitely be booking many more tutoring appointments with Maureen.

Christy, 4 lessons with Maureen

Super flexible and very patient in explaining both Geometry and Algebra II to my daughter! This is the second year we are using her to help support my daughter.

Calc AB reviews

Maureen helped my son prepare for his test and went through many sample questions to find solutions. She is knowledgable and patient and encourages him to continue trying more complex problems.

Elizabeth, 10 lessons with Maureen

Amazing tutor

Knowledgeable, patient, friendly and willing to work with our schedule. Worked with her for about three months and seen positive and impactful improvements. Hope to continue working with her.

Marlon, 13 lessons with Maureen

Highly recommend! Maureen is a wonderful teacher.

My son started with Maureen at the end of his PreCalc year and has done regular AP Calc sessions this year. Maureen has helped tremendously! She explains things very clearly and helps give my son confidence when approaching Calc. She was flexible in adding additional sessions before big tests if needed. My son truly valued the instruction and review time spent with Maureen. We will definitely be using her in the future for our son! I highly recommend her.

Mari, 36 lessons with Maureen

Highly recommend!

My son had one session with Maureen at the end of his PreCalc year and we have been doing weekly AP Calc sessions this year. Maureen is patient and works with my son to work through the concepts. I am very happy we found Maureen!

Super patient!

Maureen does an amazing job with my son who struggles with anxiety and ADD-she’s patient, engages him, and gets through a lot of material even though he needs short breaks.

Fabulous Chem or Alg 2 Trig Tutor...OR BOTH!

My daughter (16, 10th gr) has had a variety of tutors over the years, but Maureen really stands out! We sought out Maureen for her Chemistry skills and teaching experience, but my daughter was excited that on the weeks that Chemistry is slow, Maureen was able to seamlessly pivot and tutor her in Honors Algebra 2/Trig. 10/10--Highly recommend!
