KJ Tutoring
About
Hi! As a little background about me, I'm a Northwestern University graduate who majored in Biological Sciences with a concentration in Human Health and Disease. My primary passion is in the sciences and following graduation, worked as an IRTA fellow in NIAID/NIH for one year. I am returning to Chicago for another year to work in research.
Throughout college, I tutored to make a small income. I tutored both in the college setting - with fellow college students. I focused on tutoring organic and inorganic chemistry. Outside of university, I taught a wide variety of high school subjects. I can teach most math courses, all high school level chemistry, physics (not AP C), and chemistry. I continue to mentor high school students on their path to becoming great contributors to society in the future. Although I have a strong passion for science, I cannot give up teaching. If you are interested in seeing my resume or additional information, do not hesitate to reach out!

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
Every high school is different in terms of what material the student has learned in the current year as well as in the past. I want to first get to know the student personally as well as where they stand academically. After I get a feel as to where they are at in their current understanding, I focus my efforts on getting their understanding to a level past the understanding in the classroom so that any problem that comes to them will be easily answered.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a Bachelors of Arts in Biological Sciences. I have been a teacher's assistant for biological laboratory for two years. I have tutored ACT, SAT, math, chemistry, biology, and physics for 5 years.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I will have it be a student-by-student basis. But, generally it should be between $50 and $80
How did you get started teaching?
I started in high school just tutoring fellow high school students. I continued that and developed a passion for it.
What types of students have you worked with?
Mostly high school students, but also have worked with a fair share of college students as well.
