I have over 15 years experiences as a professional desktop publisher/graphic designer and have wards for my art direction and graphic production management. I teach in a relaxed, casual manner, emphasizing an individuals strengths and helping them realize their goals by teaching through n individually created project basis. I prefer a relaxed, casual teaching style where I emphasis the clients strengths and skills and work off their personality and interest to get them invested in their desire to learn. I do not believe in the 'tutorial' method. Tutorials teach but do not ingrain the learning experience because they do not create an individualized need to retain the process. I help the learner create a individualized project and discover how to achieve the goal of realizing the final creative piece. This helps the learner become invested in the learning process, and helps them reta

As an undergraduate at the University of Pittsburgh I spent some time in the Physics Undergraduate Lab helping students in the introductory courses.

These experiences allowed me to learn my audience and assess their needs and also understand the mentality of high school students. I loved working with the students in the Mission Acceptance program. I worked as a team leader, so I had the opportunity to work with a group of fellow mentors as well as students, which provided me experience with a variety of different students.

At the start of my college career, I began tutoring for Calculus. I received an offer from a Professor at Lafayette who had heard about me. She and her husband had two children who were accellerated two years above their classmates. I tutored both children once or twice a week in both of their respective mathematics courses as well. I love working with people, especially children. I have been a Crew Trainer at each job I've had because of my ability to relate, connect and teach others. I am very patient and easy-going. One thing I like to identify is my learner's personality so that way I may cater my teaching style to that of his/her needs. Connecting with the individual and making them feel as thought they can do, and keeping this attitude, is key to helping the student grow. Having a positive academic effect on the students' lives is what I strive to achieve.

As a current undergraduate chemistry and honors student at Arcadia University, I was recommended to become a tutor from several of my teachers my first year in college. I became a certified CRLA tutor and started tutoring my sophomore year of college; I've been tutoring ever since. I tutor chemistry, biology, math (beginner algebra, statistics, calculus I and II), and calculus based physics. I love working with students and teaching them something new. The best feeling is when someone understands a concept that they didn't before; when something "clicks" for a student, I feel as if my job as a tutor was done. I'm a very determined, persistent, caring, and patient person; all of these characteristics have helped me become a great tutor.
