I was an Industrial Engineering Intern where I used AutoCAD on a day to day basis for plant floor flow and layout. I eventually interviewed perspective interns for their CAD abilities. I was awarded a full time position as a Design Engineer after college. I used Unigraphics every day of my job. I was later promoted to CAD Administrator within the next year. I was the youngest CAD Administrator in the entire company.

I have been a teaching assistant and tutor for the physics department at Wofford College for two years (starting in 2013). This covers both semesters of general physics, from classical mechanics to waves to electricity and magnetism to optics and modern. I have also taken all of the upper level courses available at the school. I prefer to meet with students who have already looked at the material and are prepared with questions. We can then approach these problems together and solve anything the student was unable to do themselves. If I notice a gap in the theory behind something. I will then fill it in adding a physical example when I am capable of doing so. I have also had to teach a few topics to a student who could not grasp the concept from the professor, so I am not against approaching the sessions like that, but I believe it is better for the student to come prepared with quest

I make an attempt to not give away answers but guide students with their own ability to come to conclusions. I try and foster independent learning and study skills. I have a confident knowledge of the subject and can answer questions when necessary. I do not do students homework. I use examples and guide students. I'm very patient and have experience working with large diverse groups of people from different backgrounds and learning styles Everyone is capable of learning but in different ways. I strive to provide students with quality education. I was an teacher assistant for a chemistry lab for an organic lab for one semester at the University of South Carolina. I made sure students understood concepts and graded reports. I tutored general chemistry for 2 years at the Student Success Center at the University of South Carolina. I learned how to effectively foster independent learni

As a first generation college student, I understand the difficulties that many students have to face throughout their education. I am patient, caring, and passionate about ensuring each student accomplishes his or her goals. I have worked with many different students, and understand that each student learns differently. I am devoted to tailoring the tutoring sessions to each student so that they may learn effectively and obtain the most from each session. I believe that encouragement and support is necessary to build enthusiasm and foster confidence in each student throughout every step of the learning process. I have earned a bachelor degree in Biology from Harvey Mudd College and master degree in Biomedical Engineering from Duke University. As a result of this, I have gained a high level of proficiency in the subjects of math and science. Additionally, I have extensive writing experien

As a senior at Benedict College obtaining my B.S. in Biology, I have gained a better understanding of the study of biology as well as other science-related subjects and math. I have been a part of the Peer-Tutoring program at Benedict since I was a freshman and have tutored in the subject of Biology. My main goal is not to tell a student they are wrong, but to tell them how they can make the answer correct. Being that my mother is a teacher, I have picked up many of her techniques while tutoring in the peer tutoring program at my college. I believe that it helps a student more if they can be taught by someone who has a similar background to them and are similar in age. I can provide them with an easy way to learn biological concepts just as I've learned while I am in college.

I have a passion for teaching and continued learning. Mathematics and hard sciences are fundamental concepts that must be learned for careers in technical fields, yet are difficult subjects to digest. These courses are best learned through discipline, group studying and an instructor or tutor who can provide clarification where necessary, all of which I have experienced. Additionally I can share experiences in the workplace of how many of these fundamentals are practiced. As a biomedical engineer, I am passionate about mathematics, science and engineering principles. I have earned a bachelor degree in Mechanical Engineering and minored in mathematics. I have "real world" experience with mathematics and science principles and understand the importance of these fundamentals in the workplace. Both in the workplace and in my studies, I have tutored a variety of audiences with diverse techn

Having obtained a Masters Degree in Comparative Literature I have learned to best mold my teaching methodologies into the educational needs of my students. I have taught freshman German at the college level as well as have extensive experience tutoring while I worked at the University of South Carolina. Finally do to my various educational background (I have studied everything from literature to biochemistry) I am qualified to tutor in a wide variety of subjects having attended a math and science magnet school in south carolina for high school. At this school I was required to take upper level math each semester and college level physics, biology and chemistry. I believe in teaching through doing. When I taught German I conducted my class almost completely in German (the beginner level), and while this would seem difficult for the students to learn my students scored excellently on t

During my studies for my degree I have helped several family members and friends with thier course work and work related material. I have decided that I want to teach others and help them improve their skills where needed. I have helped tutor in subjects like math, reading and some English. I love helping and instructing people of all ages. I'm currently a teacher in my church where I feel like I can influence kids. I feel like I will continue to pursue school to complete my MBA and then maybe on to an engineering degree or a Ph.d
