Christina M.
Private tutor in Lisle, IL
Education
I am a recent graduate of the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign. I have a bachelor's degree in chemical engineering and a minor in computer science. Currently, I am employed as a software engineer at a Chicago tech company.
Experience
[Summer 2020 Update - I am now available online over Zoom/Google Hangouts] I have worked as a private tutor since 2014 and it is one of the most fulfilling jobs I have held. I love working with students and seeing that "spark" of understanding when a difficult concept finally comes together. I have tutored over twenty students in various subjects at the high school level: * Algebra 1/2 * Geometry * Trigonometry * Chemistry * Physics * Spanish (1-3) * Programming (introductory, as well AP Computer Science) In addition to standard homework help, in the past I have also provided several "crash courses" over the course of a summer for students hoping to prepare themselves for particularly challenging classes in the fall.
