My tutoring experience includes helping my peers at the University of Wyoming and duties of training petty officer in the US Navy. At UW, I tutored physics, math, and basic engineering. While getting my BS in Mechanical Engineering, I gained an extensive knowledge of the principles and practice of mathematics. I was the training petty officer both at boot camp and on my ship, FFG43. I was responsible creating lessons and giving training that resulted in improved job knowledge and increased qualifications for members of my division.
I love seeing children learn and grow. My teaching style is a whole, part, whole approach. I teach the abstract concept and then the practical application.

A Little Bit About Me...

It seems that ever since I can remember I have been a person that people go to for help. At a young age I would be place with students that were struggling .

I have attended three years of training with the Learning Success Institute of California, which specializes in a learning styles philosophy designed for every student, but most particularly for those who struggle in various skill areas and who have been labeled with various learning disabilities.

I tutor with the belief that patience and encouragement are very important for the discouraged learner - recognizing both their successes and challenges. I do not rush and do not play guessing games - but try to keep in step with the student while drawing them further than they may know they are going.
As a graduate from one of ... read more
