ABOUT

Jennifer M. Chertow, Ph.D.

Founder and Tutor

​

“She was the captain of her soul.” Light in August, William Faulkner

​

Getting into all but one Ivy League (Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Columbia, Dartmouth, Cornell, and U Pennsylvania), and graduating with honors from Harvard University (cum laude), I founded Ivy League Tutor to provide students with the tools to get into their dream school. I come from a family of educators going as far back as the early 20th century from my grandmother, mother, aunt, and cousins to myself. I am an educator by heart and by training with degrees in history and literature (A.B. Harvard), social science (M.A. U Chicago), anthropology (Ph.D., M.A. Stanford), as well as two years of medical school (University of Illinois at Chicago).  I have taught courses at Stanford University, University of Illinois at Chicago-College of Medicine, Oakton Community College, and Arrupe College of Loyola, Chicago. 

​

This past year, I tutored students in STEM, AP English, AP US History, AP World History, AP Human Geography, anthropology/archaeology and college/business school essay writing and application as well as test preparation (ACT and SAT). Finally, I am a professional artist and art teacher. I teach these subjects in person and online.​
