I began teaching as an undergraduate. I am also a research scientist and have been working in the environmental field for two decades. My teaching style is very practical. What do we need to do to get the job done and how can we relate this to real world examples. I believe everyone is capable and learns in different ways. The key to success is finding what clicks with each student.

I thoroughly enjoy working with the elderly population and children as well. If given the opportunity, I would prefer to work with older clientel. I am a very patient, and reserved person when it comes to teaching others new skills. I have realized that not every individual will learn at the same pace or have the success rate as others. It is important to take each person on a individual basis, and if we work together we will meet the goals that are wanted by both of us. I graduated from the University of Nevada Las Vegas in 2007 with a BA in communication studies. The curriculum at UNLV has given me a solid foundation in both my written and verbal communication skills. I also completed the gerontology program as well in 2007. I have been involved with senior theater programs, and I am currently mentoring for a non-profit organization. The program is for senior men who are 55 years of ag

My teaching style is progressive. I believe education should be entertaining, however not entertainment. I enjoy challenging my students, however to do this effectively it is important that they remain engaged. One of the ways in which I do this is to encourage students to think creatively. Creativity is the key to success with education. Not only does it foster confidence and positive self-esteem, creativity keeps the brain on its toes, so to speak, by continually challenging students’ abilities and forcing students to expand beyond their academic comfort zone. Teaching students to develop new ways to solve problems generates the confidence needed to succeed not only in school but also in life. My interest in becoming a tutor stems from my life long passion for teaching and learning. Throughout the past eight years, I have focused my efforts on soaking up my education and research exper
