As a college graduate, I have a fervent passion for teaching and mentoring. Earning a B.S. in Chemistry and a minor in Mathematics has given me a valuable understanding of math and science. I also have numerous experiences teaching, mentoring, and chemistry research. I have been employed by several tutoring initiatives for students on university campus and instructing chemistry lab for students in general and organic chemistry. Also, I have mentoring experience that extends to many STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) subjects that include calculus, chemistry, biology, physics, mathematics, and research.
My enthusiasm for teaching is manifested in my personable teaching style. I want my student to have a complete and confident understanding in any material they aim to master. I work with a clear and disciplined lesson plan to be as efficient as possible. Also, I fe ... read more

More About This Tutor...

At LSU and throughout my years of teaching, I was provided with numerous opportunities to work with children in many different educational settings.  Not only have I been exposed to different grade levels but I have also taught gifted as well as special education students.  Working with these children allowed me to understand the whole child and taught me the importance of individual needs of each student in an educational setting, regardless of placement
I believe that I can offer a motivational, technological, organized teacher with the goal of enriching young minds to be well educated and well rounded students. My focus will not only be on my students' educational needs but also on their self development fostering their individual growth. I am a firm believer that all children can learn when provided with the toolls necessary and an enriching environment. I pride myself in letti ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Students come with various background and motivation levels and ways of learning. A tutor needs to be able to discover within the student the best way for that student to learn. I believe students should be pressed not to memorize facts but to use critical thinking skills, tying things together and seeing relations so a multitude of similar problems can be solved. There are many ways science can be taught. Over the years, I have found that tutoring works best by breaking the material down into mini lessons, give the students guided practice in solving problems (we solve it together), and then independent practice where the student demonstrates mastery of the concept.
After receiving a PhD in chemistry from Purdue University I worked over 20 years in discovery research areas. I then turned to my calling of education and became a certified science teachers for grades 8-12. I taugh ... read more
