What teachers are saying about The Grade Gurus
The Grade Gurus is a tutoring service for Lake Zurich, Illinois middle school students. Here is what some of their teachers have to say about our tutors.
"Jeff Simnick and Kristen Extrom are intelligent and knowledgeable. However, I am most impressed with their ability to interact with other students. Although they are incredibly high achieving, they are able to assist other students in a helpful, unassuming manner. I highly recommend Jeff and Kristen's tutoring service." — Megan Bajor, english teacher at Lake Zurich High School
"Jeff and Kristen have been exemplary students in my Honors Pre-Calculus class this year. They have an excellent command of the material and are very helpful with other students in my class. If other students were seeking help for any math questions, I would feel very comfortable recommending either Kristen or Jeff to explain and help out." — Dan Ellis, math teacher at Lake Zurich High School
"Kristen and Jeff are students I have had in class and as members of Student Council. They are bright, outgoing, dedicating, and caring young adults who would be excellent role models and a great help to your son or daughter. They are patient, and have a passion for helping their fellow student. I would highly recommend their service, you won't be disappointed." — Christopher Bennett, economics teacher and student council advisor at Lake Zurich High School
"I really cannot think of two more caring students to take on a project like this. Tutoring middle school students, to help them acclimate to the high school experience, is a unique concept yet it is so needed." — Maryann Eiserman, English teacher at Lake Zurich High School
"Kristen Extrom is one of the finest students I have had the pleasure teaching at Lake Zurich High School. She is extremely hard-working, keeps a positive attitude, and is very intelligent. She attempts to be perfect in anything she attempts. I highly support anything Kristen chooses to do." — Darren Rothermel, business teacher at Lake Zurich High School
