I have been in education for over 25 years, with the last 14 years devoted to Gifted Education. I have a B.S. degree from NIU, a M. ED. from National Louis University, a concentration of Math and Science in undergraduate studies, and graduate hours in Gifted Education. I've only tutored one student privately many years ago. I started working with him in third/fourth grade, and continued until he started high school. I established a terrific rapport with him and his family, and was please.
