More About This Tutor...

Education, youth and adult continuing education are great passions of mine. I believe that every student has the capacity to learn and has room for improvement. I don't believe that education has to be dull and I value creative approaches to learning, all the while keeping a keen eye on the task at hand. I throughly enjoy learning each student's individual personality and strive to find ways to make material approachable, relevant and practical. Sometimes the "trick" is just to relate to what they already know and love. Key educators made a profound impact on my life and it's my simple desire to continue to do the same for others.
I place a high value on practical education. I graduated high school at the top of my class and received my AA degree just a few of months later- all while working full-time. I then obtained my BA in Organizational Management and I am now in a loca ... read more

As an undergraduate Chemistry major, I was looking to make some extra money, as college students are generally quite poor. I am very good with finding various ways of helping others to understanding key concepts in a way that relates to each individual person. On campus, I became a highly recommended tutor for regular students as well as student-athletes. Tutoring sessions involved helping students to complete homework assignments, reviewing exams and quizzes, and exam/quiz preparation. Along with helping other students to learn and understand concepts of General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Applied Mathematics, Genetics, and Microeconomics, I gained insight into new ways to reach out to the minds of new clients that came to me for help.
I simply enjoy helping others in general. Everyone has the ability to learn, as we are extremely curious beings that strive to always "want ... read more

For me, teaching is the most rewarding experience you could ask for. I love to teach, whether its an elementary student, high school student, or even someone in their college years. Patience is the most important thing to keep in mind when tutoring. Many people just keep talking a pushing when a student just isn't getting it. Instead, I try to listen more and see what the underlying issue is. I have found that is the best way to really succeed. The concept of "staying positive" is also extremely important to me. You have to be optimistic in order to learn, and that is the type of learning environment that I strive to promote.
I recently graduated from the University of Oklahoma with a Bachelor in Business Administration with a concentration in Accounting, which has enabled me to gain substantial knowledge in many areas of business and math. I also received a minor in Sociology. Thi ... read more

If students lack motivation or direction, it’s often because they are trying to perform an advanced task without basic skills. For example, many students know about the “five-paragraph essay” format, but don’t know how to organize the individual sentences. The first part of my philosophy focuses on providing students with these basic skills, as doing so prepares and makes them eager to face their assignments. The second part of my philosophy involves research. When students don’t know something, I’ve found that they will be quick to give up without considering the resources available. By showing students how to teach themselves, I let them know that they do have the opportunity and ability to succeed if they put in the effort.
I first tutored for two years during high school when a family friend asked me to help him teach kids chess at four elementary schools. I thoroughly enjoyed ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been professionally teaching for almost 30 years whether it be swimming to five year olds or flying to heads of aviation organizations. Few things give greater satisfaction than sharing what I have learned with others and watching them grow as they learn. A skilled, dedicated teacher, with a passion for the subject, can get anyone to learn, all the learner needs is a little desire. It is my job as a teacher/mentor to explore and grow that desire. I believe in a relaxed, but disciplined teaching environment of mutual respect between teacher and learner where both can learn from each other.

More About This Tutor...

It is my experience that an instructor delivers more learning when a student has an interest in the subject. "Inspire rather than require," has far greater efficacy in delivering information. I tend to make it fun, interesting and encourage student participation and feedback. Reward, a basic human desire, engenders craving for learning. As each individual’s qualities are unique, I try to determine if one is a visual, auditory or tactile learner. Analogies often make good teaching aids. For example, if the subject were human circulatory systems, shining a light through a leaf reveals veins similar to our own and is more apt to draw the student into the subject. When appropriate, I ask the student to teach me.
In graduate school, I developed a management style, Egalitarian Leadership. The faculty encouraged me to submit my paper to Harvard Business School. Currently, I am writ ... read more
