College Teacher Tutoring Math, Economics Accounting TestPrep

As a student I was always helping my friends and brothers with their school work, especially math. While in graduate school working on my Masters degree I tutored for the athletic department and even tutored some of my classmates who were college professors working on their PhD's. I have been a college teacher for more than 5 years and started doing private tutoring over 2 years ago.
Teaching style varies by student and by subject, and even varies according to my level of skill in the subject matter. I have been told that I make things that are confusing or hard to understand easy, and I love that 'I see' look in a student's eyes.

During my time at Oklahoma Christian University, I took advantage of opportunities to help international students with their English. I also went abroad on summer internships with Let's Start Talking where I was able to assist several students from Belgium, Rwanda and South Africa with their English proficiency. The past three years, from the fall of 2008 to the summer of 2011 I worked as an English teacher in Central China. I worked to design lesson plans to help students achieve fluency and pr ... read more
