I have experience in a variety of fields, both in education and in the business world. I have experience teaching high school economics and speech in a traditional setting, and a variety of subjects in a homeschool setting. My best subjects are history, especially American history, and economics. In history, I advocate studying events from a variety of perspectives, and seek to impress the student with the importance of understanding the perspectives of those who lived in various time periods. In economics, I am a strong proponent of the Austrian School of economics, which eschew political agendas in favor of describing the likely outcomes of various policy proposals, but I am versed in other schools of economics, as well (Keynesianism, the Chicago School, Classical Economics, and Marxism). I have experiential knowledge in finance and investing, including both traditional forms of i

I love working with students and researchers, and I have what I call an open door teaching philosophy. I believe that a successful teacher is patient and available to students. I also believe that questions are as important as answers, and that students learn best in environments in which they are encouraged to ask questions and make mistakes. Students learn through trial and error, and it is important to nurture that process. Thus, teaching is not only about correcting students, but also about showing approval for what a student has done right. I have earned four degrees from Louisiana Tech University, a B.A. in History with a double major in Political Science (2007), a B.A. in English with a minor in Cultural Resources (2007), a Post-Bacc in Technical Communication (2008), and an M. A. in History (2011). Through research in these areas, I believe that I am qualified to tutor in hi
