Throughout my life I have tutored many individuals that have crossed my path. As a father and working professional, I have always tried to pass along my knowledge to those that would benefit. A well trained associate is better for all concerned. I currently tutor algebra for 6th grade students. My teaching style varies for each individual student. To see a struggling student smile when they finally grasp a concept is very rewarding. I make my students think and do the work. The only way to grasp hard business and math concepts is through repetition and patience.

Numerous studies have shown that children have different learning styles. I believe that tailoring to a student’s individual style is the most effective way to teach. Consequently, the first session will be spent in identifying your child’s unique style. Before tutoring begins, I like to sit down with the parents and student to identify educational goals. Once goals and learning styles are identified, it is easy to come up with an individualized study plan for your child. I began tutoring when I was in high school and enjoyed it immensely. When I got to college, I became a German teaching assistant. My favorite part was office hours. I love working with students individually. I earned a bachelor’s degree in German and Linguistics; I also took 16 credits each of biology and chemistry.

I enjoy working with people of all ages. My teaching style is to ascertain the current level of the student (or volunteer, employee or staff member), then proceed to educate by informing and challenging using an encouraging and enthusiastic attitude. When I make corrections, I explain why I made the corrections. I coax and challenge the student to understand why something is right or wrong so that he or she grasps the fundamentals.
