Experienced Bilingual Tutor

Avg response < 2 hrs

Hi! My name is Molly. I am 23 years old and work full time in marketing. I have had experience tutoring, specifically in foreign language (Spanish). I graduated Cum Laude from my university in May. I love reading, math, history, science, coding, ballet, and many more subjects. I have been told I am a great tutor/teacher. I assume I have picked up some things from my parents, who are both teachers. I am incredibly responsible and willing to help during this strange time (COVID-19). I take COVID-19 seriously, and I am comfortable wearing a mask and socially distancing while interacting with kids. I look forward to meeting you and your kids and helping them learn!

Emily S.|Oak Park, IL

$30-40/hr • 8 yrs exp • 31 yrs old

I'm Emily - a thoughtful, patient, and positive teacher who loves dogs, coffee and inclusion. I've spent the past 8 years teaching various grade levels and subjects, but teaching reading has been my favorite. To me, the best parts of teaching are creating meaningful relationships with students and finding fun ways to best engage them in learning. I find it helpful to use songs, games, visuals, and movement to help students understand and appreciate content. I have decided not to return to the classroom this school year, so I am looking to continue teaching through tutoring or private instruction. Since I'm new to this, I'm not entirely sure what I'm looking for, but I'd love to get to know each other to see if I could meet the needs of your little learner(s)!

I am a super reliable and responsible current graduate student at IIT pursuing my Master's degree in Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling! I have over 6 years of experience working with children between the ages of 8 months and 14 years of age. I am working to pursue a career working with children and would love to gain more experience caring for kids as well as earning extra money to help me through graduate school. Incredibly willing to help out around the house, with homework, making meals and snacks, and keeping children entertained away from technology. I have experience working with children of various religious and ethnic backgrounds, can speak/read/write Arabic fluently, and would love to help your child learn Arabic as well if you are interested! My hourly rate is negotiable and I am more than willing to participate in a phone or video interview. Currently, my availability is limited due to my heavy course load and am only able to work 2 days a week maximum.

Reviewed by Christina P. Sep 2020 5/5 stars

I hired Saja on a few occasions to watch my son. Saja was always extremely punctual, she responded fast when I texted her, and she always showed up on time when I needed her. She is very respectful, always made sure the house was not a big mess when I came back and made sure to follow any food/sleeping schedules I provided her for my son. My son always asked for Saja and he loved having her around, so that helped me trust her a lot. She is extremely hands-on, gentle, and kids love her. Overall, your child(ren) will be a great hands. You will not regret hiring Saja.
