Helpful And Patient Tutor

Avg response < 4 hrs
I graduated high school with a cumulative 4. 795 GPA. I've taken Advanced Algebra Trigonometry Honors, AP Computer Science A, AP English Language & Composition, Precalculus Honors, AP Calculus-BC. Concerning the SAT, I've taken 5 SATs and have increased my score from 1380 to 1530, receiving an 800 on the Math section, and a 730 on the Reading and Writing section. I have played club and varsity soccer all 4 years of high school, and have a lot of experience with weight training. I also have experience being a peer tutor who tutored fellow students 5 days a week throughout the school year, soccer referee for children aged 6-17 years old, and also have experience working at a local tutoring center for kids to teach them how to code. With these jobs I have gotten more than 5 years of experience both teaching and managing students effectively. I will be attending the University of Michigan this fall, and am planning on studying Computer Science in their College of Engineering.

Certified Teacher Looking To Offer Some Extra Outside Help!

Beginning in high school, I began my experiences with children and finding joy in teaching children. I tutored through a applicant only program before graduating high school and obtaining my Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education, with a specialization in reading intervention. I tutored on average 8 students a week while in college. Following college, I have worked in many classrooms over the last year and a half, long-term substituting in a middle school math classroom, as well as a second and fifth grade classroom. My greatest joy is watching my students when they have their "light bulb," moment, and I can see that they are learning!

Child Care Provider

(2)
Hi, my name is Gosia. I'm 35 years old and I'm an experienced nanny who loves kids. I have been working as a babysitter for a total of 9 years. All that time, it was an amazing experience for me to have that opportunity to share my life with them. I had worked with kids in all ages, boys and girls. I'm a non-smoking, caring person with a CPR certificate. I like sports, I'm very creative, full of energy and I always find something to do with the kids (reading books, coloring, making jewelry, animals, Legos, play soccer or hide and seek, teach the children some new games, songs, dance, etc.). I am a responsible, honest, patient and loving person. I enjoy my work and never give up. Gosia

Full/Part-Time Nanny Here to Help!

Avg response < 1 hrs
I have been babysitting since I was about in the 6th grade. I would babysit for neighbors, family friends, anyone who needed help, etc. In the summer of 2008 and 2009, I was a full-time nanny for a family with two sons, ages 6 and 9. I would put them on a schedule everyday which seemed to work out well. I would let them sleep in until 9 and we would then have breakfast. After breakfast we would read for at least 15 minutes because I signed them up for the Reading Program at the library. After reading, I would allow them to watch 30 minutes of their favorite cartoons. After watching TV, we would work on their summer school homework for about 30 minutes. I really enjoyed helping them out with their schoolwork and it seemed like I was a great help. They enjoyed the fun ways I taught them because I involved physical activity. After lunch, we would do any sort of activity they could agree on. If they couldn't agree, we would pick out of a hat. Daily activities consisted of going to the local pool, going for hikes in different Forest Preserves around the DuPage area, going for bike rides to get ice cream/any "treat" (this was if they did exceptionally well on their reading and homework) and every once in awhile we would go to the Brookfield Zoo or the Shedd Aquarium.
