I am an attorney licensed to practice of law in Louisiana since October 2011. I currently represent the State of Louisiana in multiple areas of law. My experience as an attorney representing the state has provided unique insight and understanding of how the state and Federal government are structured and operate. In addition, the practice of law requires carefully considered word choice, understanding and use of grammar, and advanced writing composition skills.

Coaching writers and assisting them in the critical thinking process necessary for research and writing is my passion. I have spent more than 20 years as a journalist, worked with college journalism students as an adviser and taught undergraduate journalism courses. Perhaps most importantly, I can help students understand that everything on the Internet is not actually research. Mastery of media is the essential skill of this information age. It will serve them for the rest of their lives.

I have taught Spanish and ESL at the collegiate, upper/high, and middle school levels. I earned my B.A. in Spanish with a history minor from Baylor University in 3.5 years and graduated Magna cum Laude. I earned my M.A. in Spanish at Baylor University in May of 2010. I have tutored extensively both during and after my studies. I look forward to working with you. I believe that anyone can learn. I approach history as a story (albeit a very detailed one) and languages as a skill set. I don't do rote memorization, but instead emphasize the patterns, causes, and effects of concepts. If you can begin to understand the why and the patterns behind concepts, the material becomes more meaningful and a lot of the need for rote memorization is removed. Mistakes are learning opportunities, and learning should be meaningful, not stressful. I take whatever approach necessary to give you the t

A hands-on approach, with a focus on making learning fun. I find that when a student is engaged and taking joy in his or her studies, it becomes less like work and more like an enjoyable hobby. I have recently completed my course of studies in Medical and Biological Sciences and was awarded my Master's Degree from Mississippi College in Clinton, Mississippi on December 19, 2014. I hope to begin Medical School in the fall and am currently awaiting word of my application status at LSU Health Sciences Center in New Orleans and in Shreveport. I finished graduate school with a 3.9 GPA, was salutatorian of my high school class, and have an extensive history of academic accomplishment in both the classroom and in academic competition. I possess a wide array of knowledge and achievements that encompass scientific, social, and interdisciplinary subject matter. It is my great desire to assist in t

Right now I am in school to be an English High School Teacher at LSU. I have a year left of school and am very excited to start my career. I have worked in preschools and daycares since I was 16. I worked my way up through the classroom and became a lead teacher of a 3-4 year old class. This allowed me to create lesson plans and help the students.

I have finished many of my math classes through high school with A's. I absolutely love writing stories and essays. The lowest grade I have receives on any writing assignment was a B. I have tutored many of times before and my students did extremely well. One student started with me with a grade of D in math and picked it up to an A. I love to make things interesting. I struggled with science in middle school and required a tutor. This person didn't make learning the subject fun, so from there I decided that with everything students learn a little fun should be involved. As soon as the student becomes stressed, I do some kind of physical activity with them to make them feel better.

In general, I like to assist the student visually and with real-life examples of how subjects such as chemistry, physics, and math can be applied to everyday life. My goal is to make learning fun not by lecturing, but encouraging the student to get involved and ask questions. Situations do arise when it is beneficial to lecture and let the student "soak up" knowledge through diagrams and examples on the board. I find both teaching styles work, and tailor each lesson based on the needs and capabilities of the student. With 2 BS degrees, Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, I have been exposed to all of the most important fundamental disciplines that children need to be successful today. Math and science are my strong points, and I have much experience as a peer tutor throughout my collegiate and high school studies. I feel very comfortable teaching physics, chemistry, calculus and mat

My offerings are in writing and Speech Communication. After graduating from the University of Georgia, I attended a state accredited graduate school in Florida and Mississippi: Reformed Theological Seminary. Graduation led to a year long internship in the Presbyterian ministry. After ordination, I spent 12 years as a minister, including three as a chaplain in the National Guard, including Iraq. Upon return, I set aside Army and Church to spend two years on Lookout Mountain letting a stress fracture heal and finishing a novel, begun in 2000. This 850 page book, The Canterbury Chronicles is under consideration by Skoob Press of Athens, Georgia. I've also written 12,000 words of poetry. My teaching style is best described as a balance between a healthy relational presence and an interesting conveyor of teaching and information. In other words, I combine "popular, upbeat, and friendly"
