My Son had an extremely tight summer school schedule. Phil was available 24 seven. It was an online class with many obstacles with the online Program Director. Phil and my son got it done together without Phil. It would've never happened. I would highly recommend Phil as an algebra or Math Tutor

I've known Phil since our college days, so when my daughter started struggling with math, he was the first person I reached out to. Even though we handle everything remotely, his teaching background completely shines through. He has an incredible ability to break down complex concepts without making the material feel overwhelming, and he really helped boost my daughter's confidence before big tests. Phil is patient, highly professional, and genuinely cares about his students' success. I can't recommend him enough!

Phil is an amazing teacher. From laser pointers to marshmallows, he knows how to make math come alive. My child was extremely reluctant when it came to math, now she makes huge progress each time she meets with Phil. He truly cares about his students and has a gift for connecting with them.

We are very happy to have found Phil. My 15yo son will be starting public high school after 10 years of homeschooling, and we wanted to make sure he could seamlessly transition into the school's math classes. Phil's tutoring has been invaluable: he evaluates strengths and weaknesses. He communicates thoroughly with parents. He comes to sessions prepared with an arsenal of exercises, sample problems, and ideas to get my son thinking. No doubt his background as a teacher has given him many of these skills, but it has also made him a wealth of insightful advice to us as parents. Beyond this, he takes the time to get to know my son as a person with interests and aspirations, not just a client.

Phil responds quickly to texts and emails, and is flexible with scheduling dates, times, and locations. I would wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone who needs them, whether they are struggling to pass a class, need help with test prep, or just want an evaluation and advice. Thanks Phil!

We love Phil. He is the BEST. He is patient, supportive, and explains concepts in a way that truly helps my daughter understand and feel more confident. He is also very communicative with me and always willing to take the extra step to help, whether that means checking in, offering feedback, contacting the teacher or providing additional support when needed. I would highly recommend him to any parent looking for a dedicated and effective math tutor.

Was getting ripped off at Mathnasium. Phil tutors my kid longer and for less money. Plus he has a Master's degree! Simply the best!

Daughter needed a good grade on the final to pass the class. Phil came and helped her study for an hour and a half the night before, and she did great on the test and passed the class! Very personable and funny as well, which definitely helps with a 14 yr old.

MISSION

Hello! My name is Phillip Krzankowski and I provide 1-on-1 Math and Computer Science tutoring for Junior High, High School, and College students.

I have 14 years of teaching experience in one of Illinois' top-performing high school districts, District 211, and I offer more than just a standard tutoring experience.

For students, I help build confidence, reduce test anxiety, and improve scores.

For parents, I work directly with you to navigate the complexities of school systems and help you better advocate for your child.

Unlike commercial tutoring centers, I prioritize students, achievement, and high standards — not upselling packages or pushing gimmicks.
