I have tutored in both group and individual settings. I believe that the best way to improve is to PRACTICE. We will begin by determining where your strengths and weaknesses within a particular are. This will be accomplished through the use of a standardized practice test that I will provide. After determining what is necessary, I will work with you on all aspects of the subject. We will spend the majority of the time on those areas that are not as strong as the others; however, we will still spend a significant amount of time on those things which you h

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.

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 math in general. I have also volunteered my time to assist elementary school students with the language arts: i.e. sentence structure, spelling, grammar, etc. 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" knowled

I graduated with my undergraduate degree in marine biology in 2002 and then worked as a research biologist for two and a half years before returning to school to pursue my master’s degree. I believe that my hands-on scientific experiences combined with my academic background allow me to convey difficult concepts to students. As a researcher and as a student, I have had to put together many written and oral proposals and presentations, so I have the ability to communicate ideas very effectively. Each semester of my graduate school, I taught two science labs to non-science majors. This job provided me with experience in lecturing, preparing experiments, designing exams, and evaluating students. After my graduate work was completed, I began private tutoring in subjects such as Spanish, algebra, genetics, and social sciences. I think the most useful tutor emphasizes critical thinking. I have
