About
I am currently a licensed State of Illinois substitute teacher with experience in both the Chicago Public Schools as well as the charter schools. My assignments are working with middle school and high school students. I possess a Bachelor of Arts from Northwestern University in political science and am also attending classes for a Master of Science in Real Estate Development from Roosevelt University. I have published articles, and I have intermittently tutored both young adults & adults in English grammar, the art of critical writing and mathematics (i.e. basic math, algebra, geometry, probability & statistics.
I enjoy challenging students to perform at & reach their potential. If a student has difficulty grasping a concept, I assume it is my responsibility to ensure that he or she successfully learn the concept(s). Student achievement is extremely important to me.
