My scholastic achievements have placed me on the Shorter College Dean’s list multiple times with an overall G.P.A of 3.27 on a 4.0 scale.I helped establish the Students in Free Enterprise (SIFE) at Shorter College in the Spring semester of 2007. SIFE brings the top leaders of today and tomorrow to help create a more stable world through positive power of business. SIFE uses outreach programs in the community to increase the standard of living and the quality of life of those individuals in need.
Teaching others cannot be defined by one style of teaching. The way to teach is by learning first how the student receives the information. Auditory learners and Visual learners require two different methods of teaching. The key is to make the information understandable to the student by breaking the information down in any format. Knowledge is power and satisfaction. I remember the feeling ... read more

During college I noticed that every student absorbs information differently. I believe that in order to teach effectively, a tutor must not only understand which way a student learns best, but also provide an appropriate environment in which the student feels comfortable. I enjoy working with children of all ages and it is my goal to ensure that each child receives the best education possible. I believe a child's education is the most important factor in determining their success in life.
As a Mathematical Sciences major, I was encouraged to development a strong foundation in applied mathematics. In addition, I also minored in Biology, as a science related minor was required for my program. I have learned many writing skills due to many research papers, lab projects, and mathematical proofs. My experience at Armstrong Atlantic State University certainly has prepared me to help stud ... read more

I use a combined demonstration and discussion style for lecture and introduction of topics to be studied. Labs are a demonstration followed by a monitored hands-on work experience. I integrate reading and computational skills into my subject matter and use contemporary internet sources to supplement all content items. Practice assignments are designed as reinforcers for the most important skills and topics of the lesson. Homework is for quality, not for quantity. Testing is always followed by analysis and reinforced correctives. Good tests become learning tools.
Upon receiving my BA, I began a 26-year journey in high school and college education. My primary teaching duties were in biology, chemistry, and earth sciences. I was appointed department chair for three schools and served as district coordinator for sciences at one of those schools. I have worked to develop science ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I wouldn't have a "professional" description for teaching style as my education was solidly based in the sciences. However, I believe that by teaching intuitive thought processes and critical thinking skills, students can easily adapt to the tasks given be they in science or liberal arts.
While planning for a career in medicine, I obtained a BS in biology with a minor in Chemistry. During the application and acceptance process I was an adjunct faculty member at a local technical college. My courses taught were remedial Algebra, biology, and anatomy and physiology. During the hours between classes I was a paid Tutor in the college's learning assistance center.

I do enjoy helping students with their problems. I have a technique of visualization. for example, which is the first example I use. I tell the student to think of a tree. in the seconds you think of a tree, you don't think of just the tree. you think of the roots, the trunk, the limbs, the branches, the leaves. then you think of whats going on in the tree, right down to the point of the tree taking in carbon dioxide and giving off oxygen and water. Why is the tree giving off water. most people do not know that the tree is making water because it is attaching hydrogen to the oxygen to get rid of the hydrogen, acid. I can apply this same visualization to almost anything.
