Experienced tutor in science, social studies, English and study skills

I love helping students to succeed. It is my job as a certified teacher in all the sciences and social sciences to help students become aware of their strengths and teach them methods to overcome their weaknesses. Usually just a few sessions and a lot a positive reinforcement will work wonders with a frustrated student. I consider my student’s success as my measure of my own success.

I have many years of teaching experience in all types of environments with all types of students. As a subst…

Mary K. from Batavia, IL We were extremely pleased with the tutoring Diane provided for our daughter. Our daughter, who is an honors student, was struggling with an Honors English course in high school. Her grade had fallen. She had 6 weeks left in the semester to bring up her scores. Diane was able to review her past assignments and help our daughter focus on what was important. She spent time assessing her skills to determine where she needed the most help. She provided excellent study resources as well as teaching her HOW to study, how to review and study chapters in textbooks in the most efficient manner, how to properly provide answers to essay questions on exams, etc. She read through some of her papers and provided some guidance but didn't write the paper for her or change her ideas. Our daughter aced her final exam and brought her grade up to a high B within the six week time frame. We will definitely call Diane again when our children need guidance with homework. The "how to study" lessons our daughter learned were invaluable. Thank you, Diane!!

Cynthia R. from Saint Charles, IL Diane has been a godsend! Our daughter started struggling academically after changing schools and going into high school. As a result, our daughter's confidence in herself and enjoyment of school suffered dramatically. Diane has helped our daughter develop and implement effective study skills. These are skills often not taught in schools but which can make the difference between school success and failure: how to critically read textbooks and sources for maximum understanding, how to effectively take notes, how to organize thoughts and assigments, how to organize and prepare for tests and exams, how to break down large projects into manageable pieces, etc. Diane's personality and teaching experience have equipped her with incredible patience, tolerance, and understanding. In addition, her experience helping ADHD students has been tremendously helpful. Thank you, Diane for helping our daughter believe in herself again!

Mark R. from Aurora, IL We have been seeing Diane for about 8 months now. From the first time we contacted Diane she was so accommodating regarding our needs and working with us to find a time/s that would work with our daughter?s busy schedule. We have used Diane for Honors English and study skills. Diane wanted to understand and assess my daughter?s strengths and weaknesses, instead of being like every other tutor and offer her everything from A to Z. Diane targets where my daughter needs help and works on those areas while constantly unassumingly reassessing to find other areas to make her a better student. Diane is a very proactive tutor and not a reactive tutor. Diane not only helps my daughter on what she needs help on now, but she also tailors her style towards where my daughter will need help down the road. Every time I have observed Diane with my daughter there are so many wonderful teaching moments!! Diane is very organized and structured. Diane provided my daughter with handouts in study skills and also Honors English (writing) to help her now and in the future. We will continue to use Diane, and our family highly recommends her. While we have only used her for English, writing and study stills, we are confident Diane is excellent in all her subjects. You just know when you have a great tutor, and Diane is a great tutor.

Patrick C. from Saint Charles, IL My daughter just took her first ACT and I was extremely pleased at the schedule of work and activities Diane prepared. Leading up to test day Diane prepared a very targeted program that was extremely beneficial! We are very pleased with Diane and couldn't be happier to recommend her to others!

Irene A. from Batavia, IL Diane loves to teach and learn. She enjoys kids and helping them and it shows. Never would I expect to see my son smiling and laughing about grammar but he loved Diane and was completely engaged. He just took his ACT but in his practice ACT he scored higher on the grammar section than he typically does. I recommend Diane, she makes it fun and her passion is infectious! And she really knows her stuff!
