Mohammed Bilal Siddiqui

Hello, I'm your tutor, Bilal. I started tutoring my classmates around the end of middle school in 8th grade circa 2020 and currently tutor for a local company in my hometown where I have been tutoring since September 2023 in Pre-Algebra, Algebra Basics, and Biology. I mostly tutor high school underclassmen or older middle schoolers in person. However, I also tutor a handful of students online, mainly via Khan Academy.

I tend to cater toward AP Students with my tutoring, as I took a LOT of APs in high school and have detailed notes, study guides, and practice homework assignments that I can use to tutor students. I tend to gravitate more toward Algebraic Math, since I've been able to pick up a few tricks to help students understand Algebra's twisted techniques in an understandable way.

This comes from a wealth of knowledge in my chosen subjects, as I received 5s in AP Euro, APUSH, AP Lit, and AP Lang. I also received a 4 in AP Chem, AP U.S. Gov, and AP Stats. Furthermore, I had all A's in Math until AP Calculus BC. I graduated from Glenbard East High School in May 2024 with an overall GPA of 3.6, and I am currently attending College of DuPage.

In addition to tutoring, I also hold a Paraprofessional Educator License. I spent a year working at a local high school as a Multilingual Teaching Assistant, where I helped newcomer students, many of whom had just arrived in the U.S., overcome the language barrier in their classes. I translated lessons in real time, mainly in STEM subjects (and occasionally in history), to make sure students didn’t fall behind simply because of the language gap. It was one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve had in education so far.

I have a more laid-back approach in teaching students; I try to explain things clearly and casually, and I relate to them on their level. Students often open up more when they feel like they’re learning from a peer instead of an overbearing instructor. That said, I always keep things professional; especially when students start getting a little too lax.
