Experience Summary
For the last three years I have worked as a physics and mathematics tutor. Unlike most tutors I have experience teaching on the college level. I worked as an assistant physics professor at Eastern Kentucky University during my last year of undergraduate study. Currently I have a BS in Physics Engineering, which has allowed me to gain a thorough understanding of physics and mathematics. This fall I will start graduate school in which I will be pursuing a MS in physics. I will work as a graduate teaching assistant, in which I will also have to teach college students in physics. After my MS, I plan on obtaining my PHD in Physics as well. I have worked with students ranging from elementary school to graduate school.
Teaching Style
I believe anyone can learn any subject as long as they have the right tools to succeed. The right teacher can make a hard subject seem easy. My main goal in teaching is to make students feel they have the ability to be successful in the courses they are taking. I do the above by being very positive, patient, and encouraging. From my years of taking extremely hard college courses, I have learned study skills that allowed me to do more than simply memorize material but to actually learn and retain the subject matter. I pass down what I have learned to every student I tutor, which helps them not only in the courses we work on but also in any course they will ever take.
