A Little Bit About Me...

Very laid back and encouraging to the student. Wanting to make it as fun as possible while providing the right amount of challenge to ensure growth as a playerq
I have been playing the guitar for over 13 years. I have been in a number of bands and took lessons regularly for 7 years from a very accomplished Jazz musician in Wichita Kansas named Randy Zellers. I can play a wide variety of styles and can play with any tempo, including the incredibly fast pace of some guitar styles. I have composed a countless number of songs on guitar and have learned in a traditional sense and in a self taught sense as well.

From January 2006 through August 2008, I worked part-time as a freshman composition instructor, writing lab tutor, and teaching assistant for the English department at UNT. As an instructor, I taught two classes per long semester and one, intensive summer session. During the fall semesters, I taught Composition I, which introduced students to a variety of writing concepts, such as the personal essay and the visual text. The students wrote five papers, three to five pages in length, with each paper designed around one of the concepts. For those exercises, I emphasized the importance organization, grammar, and syntax rather than content. During the spring semesters, I taught Composition II, which required the students to develop critical reading and thinking skills as a progression toward a final research paper. The students prepared two papers covering assigned works of anthologized ... read more

Certified Interpreter tutors ASL

My goal as a tutor is to figure out what's missing that, if you had it, would make all the difference. That's the reason you pay for an instructor instead of just reading a book or watching a video. My job is to see where you are and where you are aiming for, then plot the path and light your way. My expertise is in figuring out how to get you to get it, and ultimately to get you to a point where you don't need me any more. I've learned how to do this through teaching individuals and in workshop settings, and I promise that you'll see a difference when you work with me. And, for what it's worth, I've taken the Myers-Briggs assessment twice, and both times I've scored ENFJ: The Teacher.

My teaching style is one in which I strive to engage students in the subject by both instructing and challenging them to think on their own. I also strive to accomplish this goal in such a manner that the student experiences the fun that is a part of learning, but one that also emphasizes the importance of the learning process as well. In all of my tutoring and teaching experiences, I communicate how critical good study habits are: self-discipline; finding a quiet place to study; punctuality; attention to detail; following the rules; etc.
