I graduated from Vanderbilt in 2004 with a major in philosophy and a minor in geology. My overall GPA was 3.674/4.000. I enjoy using both sides of my brain, so to speak. Through philosophy, I mastered formalities of the English language and developed an aptitude for critical and logical thinking. Through geology, I focused on the practical through the application of mathematical and scientific concepts. I have tutored students in math, English, and the sciences. There is no subject area I can't tackle!
I enjoy helping others understand concepts that they are struggling with. It is very gratifying when a student has that "a ha" moment. I am a little strict with instruction. If a student is not paying attention or has not completed an assignment that I've asked him/her to do, I will not overlook it. I think that, in the interest of the end goal of improving grades, ... read more

I love being able to give other students the passion that I have for learning and understanding something new. During my undergraduate work in psychology and training to be a tutor, I learned the different types of learning styles and how to test for them. I use this technique with every student I work with, so that I can teach to their form of learning. I believe that children learn best through practical application and hands on activities that help them better understand what we discuss and work on. All children are capable of learning and excelling, once they understand how they learn best. I strive to instill in every child a feeling of pride and self-esteem in their studies.
From a young age, I greatly enjoyed school and excelling in all that I put my mind to. To this end, I have earned a BS in Psychology and a minor in biology, both with Honors, and am applying to cont ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a graduate of the University of Florida, I studied Physics and played football as well. Earning a Bachelors degree in Physics, I studied all levels of Calculus, Differential equations, linear algebra, thermal physics, electromagnetism, chemistry 1 and 2, mechanics, quantum mechanics, and many other classes. Therefore, I am very skilled in the areas of math and science.
I am more capable as a teacher and mentor to students in middle school and high school. While I have a lot of experience with elementary students, I find my best impact on middle and high school students. I like to use the Socratic method in which I try to make the student answer there own question, by posing other logical questions in which they can deduce the resolution.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of Southwestern College, I was very much driven by a high level of excellence in education. While on active duty in the military, I completed my BS in Human Resource Development and I received Magna Cum Laude honors. I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers and reports in various areas of study. During the last eight years of my military career I have counseled Sailors in pursuing a college education and tutored several of these same Sailors in English and mathematics.
I love teaching and working with young minds. I believe anyone can learn and meet his or her potential if he or she is given the opportunity. I am patient, easy going, and considerate to the needs of the learner. I hope to make a difference in a student's life and I am available to help you find academic success.

I entered college with a GPA of 4.88. I obtained a Bachelors of Science in Biology while also earning a minor in both chemistry and psychology. I was only three classes short of majoring in chemistry. I tutored my classmates and formed study groups while working 80 hours a week as a microbiology lab assistant and a team coordinator for a company that helped those with mental retardation and developmental disabilitites.

I spent two weeks in both Brazil and Australia studying medicine.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a student at Alabama State University I excelled in my studies. My years attending I did not graduate but I was placed on the Dean's List for 3 years. In addition, I was vice president of BioMedical Club an elite and very highly talked club in the Biology department. I have learned and studied a variety of sciences. I have excelled in wet/dry laboratories and have written research papers and laboratory reports. My last year, I began tutoring Biology and Chemistry to freshmen.
My future plans are to become a Health Care or a Biology teacher in the summer of 2010. I believe in passing the information that I have obtained to a younger audience and helping students think of goals and help them reach them. If I begin tutoring my teaching method is a more visual and hands on learning. The reason for that science is a very different and difficult subject to learn from English and Hi ... read more

I have earned my Bachelors of Science degree in mathematics, which has allowed me to ascertain advanced knowledge in all aspects of mathematics. By having this degree, I have gained teaching experience in the Education field at an elementary school. During my college years I tutored college students in mathematics as well.
I enjoy teaching and working with anyone willing to learn and even those that aren't as willing, i try to help them become more comfortable and confident in acquiring knowledge. I have many teaching techniques, depending on the student. My techniques range from visual, auditory and tactile. I am very patient and observant while teaching and I try my best to accommodate whatever is needed to allow learning progress.
