REAL LEARNING IS FUN, RISKY, DANGEROUS...BUT NEVER BORING :)

My passion is helping YOU attain your academic goals. Helping you grow sustainable LEARNING skills, SELF-DISCOVERY skills, and LIFE-SURVIVAL skills through the tutoring experience is my primary concern. My best students are un-cool with authority, rebellious, edgy, skeptical, and FULL of curiosity. 1) Diagnose the problem - determine current strengths and weaknesses. 2) Given course syllabus and step 1 and current grades in class, develop a plan of improvement and goal. 3) Work on remedial skills development. 4) Next work on understanding new concepts to keep student current in lecture material. 5) Practice, practice, practice to improve Exam performance. 6) Re-evaluate.
My experience spans both the ivory tower and the world of business and industry. I have observed that "TEACHING" is often associated with the ideas of "PRESENTATION" and "ACADEMIC ENTERTAINMENT". Hones ... read more

More About This Tutor...

When teaching classes I like to provide a balance between oral, visual and hands-on teach techniques as studies show people learn in one or more of these three approaches. In my classes I try to provide exercises that touch on the core components of the lesson along with the theory and skills needed to succeed. Teaching is one of areas I got into in my career as I have always enjoyed mentoring younger developers in the Information Technology field. I find it very rewarding passing on the skills I have learned to others.
I have been in the Information Technology industry for over thirty years working for such companies as American Airlines, Sheraton Hotels, Williams, Harsco, Dollar-Thrifty and Microsoft. I have a BS in Computer Science and have worked in both hardware support and software development. I currently work as an independent consultant providing my customers with th ... read more

I am very adaptive to students learning style. I usually spend the first ten minutes of our first meeting figuring out what the student is struggling with and how to best meet their needs. I try to teach students more how to think analytical more so then just solving problems because it is more beneficial to the student. I feel that if I can teach the student how to read theorems, understand concepts, then problems just become easy at that point.
I started tutoring part time in 2004 and have continued this throughout college. I worked as a math tutor for tulsa community college part time during the summer. I have earned over 190 hours of college credit, I have two degrees, and I am only 15 hours away from a chemical engineering degree.
