Ph.D., Religion, Emory University (2013) M.A., Theology, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary (2005) B.A., History, Taylor University (2002) My career as a tutor began when I was looking for a way to support myself during my graduate studies in the Boston area. After signing on with a local company, I discovered my passion for finding better ways to help students overcome difficulties and achieve their goals. I enjoyed the challenges of adapting content to the individual needs of each student, of pioneering new ways of communicating ideas, and of working closely with parents to ensure that my efforts were effective. Sensing the need for more structure, I later moved to Kaplan. In more recent years, I have tutored independently. Perhaps the most rewarding part of the work is sharing in the success of my clients. Students of mine have increased their cumulative SAT scores by as ma

I like working with high school students with a desire to learn. As a senior member of the Civil Air Patrol, working with the cadets was a pleasure. Their abilities ranged from marginal to excellent, but every cadet had a strong desire to learn and excel in every thing they did in Civil Air Patrol. We had several cadets go the military academies and become excellent officers and pilots.

Depending on the students aptitude my teaching style varies. I like to get to know how the student advances and think and considering those aspects i try to make them understand. I like my students to ask me a lot of questions for which i have a lot of patience. I also make my students think pro-actively by asking them a few questions just in order to develop their style of exploring ideas and looking more deep into the problem. I have an advanced degree in engineering and a vast tutoring and in-class teaching experience while being at University of Delaware. I have M.S in Electrical Engineering. Have taught college students engineering and maths courses that include calculus, physics, algebra. Have also tutored students for GRE, SAT, and GMAT. I could help students with their sciences lab assignments as well. Mathematics and Physics has been my bread and butter for the past 5 years

I believe in following the Socratic method in my teaching, and encourage students to ask questions and take command of their own learning. Frequently I will have the students take turns presenting problems or answers to questions that they have asked me themselves in class before. I've found that occasionally the best way for a student to learn is to have them research the answers to their questions on their own, and present their findings to the class as a whole. It is through teaching each other that students learn best. I graduated high school in 2001 and spent three years abroad in Japan, teaching English as a second language. Afterwards I completed my undergraduate education with a BA in economics and math. While attending college I worked my way through school tutoring both math and economics classes. Upon graduation, I started my post graduate career at the University of Geo

I have experience teaching at a university as a Teacher's Assistant in chemistry. The classes would meet before a test and discuss the analytical techniques of the course. I am currently teaching an Anatomy and Physiology course for nurses looking to pass the RN liscensing exam. My approach to teaching is centered around the particular goals of the student or students. Clearly, a course centered around a liscensing test will focus on the material that will be on that test. Otherwise, teaching has to be catered to the student's ability to learn the material and focus on the weakness in understanding the concepts involved in the material. I am currently teaching anatomy and physiology courses to students training to become licensed Registered Nurses. The courses focus on basic science principles and the relationship of these concepts to human function and structure, clinically.

I have over 11 years of experience providing in home tutoring to individual high school, elementary school, and middle school students as well as adults for test preparation as well as for academic subject preparation. I have also had 6 years of teaching French in public school as well as having developed my own SAT curriculum and program. I am deeply passionate about having students of all learning abilities and levels succeed and am interested in developing ways to help each student showcase his or her own individual talents. I enjoy teaching students of all ages, from elementary through adults, and in all subjects. I find an interactive, Socratic teaching style in which I encourage the student to discover the answers on their own to understand why something works the way it does is a very effective approach for me rather than just lecturing, particularly for younger learners.

I have always enjoyed mentoring children. I started coaching youth soccer when I was 17. While at Emory I coached a U-13 club soccer team and I was asked by parents to tutor some of the players off the field. While I worked in finance I volunteered in the International Telementor Program, which allowed me to provide online tutoring to children from all over the country. I helped 8 – 15 year olds with book reports, career presentations, writing assignments, amongst others, and provided general life guidance when needed. As a coach and mentor, I understand each child is unique and learns in his/her own way. I will adapt my teaching style accordinlgy, but make sure they are engaged and learning, not just having information thrown at them. I have gained a very high level of education at top-ranked universities where I excelled academically. I graduated with a BBA from Emory and recently grad

I love teaching children and adults alike. I beleive teaching should be tailored to each individual, because we are all different and learn at a different pace. I also beleive that you should make your teaching relatable to the subject if interest of the student.If a student has a passion for mussic try to use that as an avenue for your lessons,once they are engaged in something they are passionate about it would make learning even more fun. I have earned a Master in Management and an Undergraduate degree in Finance, Marketing and International Business. I am also bilingual and fluently speak french. My work experience coupled with my educational background would make me a valuable tutor to any student needing my help. In the past I have conducted training courses for employees, I was also a tutor during my years in college.
