"I recently graduated from graduate school at Concordia University with my Master of Arts in Teaching - Secondary Math Education.

I also graduated from De Paul University with a Bachelor's in elementary teaching with a math specialty. I am a licensed teacher and love helping students understand concepts and am empathetic towards their learning.

I believe every student can learn and succeed. I think tutors should explain things in simple ways and work until the student fully understands a concept before moving on.

I have acquired more than 900 hours of tutoring experience over the past 6 years. Throughout that time I have tutored algebra, geometry, trigonometry, ACT, PSAT, HSPT and SAT prep.

When tutoring for test prep, I use an individualized approach. I teach content as well as test taking strategies. I utilize practice tests to give the student a real feel of what the official test will be like, as well as for use as practice passages to gain confidence.

I do my best to respond as quickly as possible. I also am available for last minute tutoring!

If you have any questions or concerns, just let me know!

Thanks,

Margaret
