Physics Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Keystone, SD

I am passionate about helping teens and young adults learn so they can succeed in life. I enjoy the challenge of discovering, with my students, their unique learning styles and catering my lessons for their success. One-on-one tutoring allows us to explore learning methods that aren't available in a traditional classroom setting. A student that discovers they can tackle new problems gives them a leap in self-esteem to propel them to success for the rest of their lives.

In college I excelled in my education by helping other students learn the material from class that they did not understand. I have earned one bachelor degree in Biomedical Science. This education has helped me gain tremendous skills in math, biology, chemistry, and reading. I have wrote many laboratory reports, research papers, and english papers that have helped me improve my grammatical skills. During my last two years in college I have helped tutor students in math, biology, and a little bit of basic chemistry. I am open to helping any student, old or young, gain more knowledge.

I am 54 and have homeschooled my own kids. My oldest is a commercial pilot and her brother is an engineer in Florida. The youngest is 11 so I have kept current in a wide range of subjects. I am current with my ability to teach, having completed three degrees within the last two years. I substitute teach at the Lead/Deadwood school. I have taught over 500 pilot students in high performance jet aircraft so I am well versed in math and science. This job also required extensive writing skills. I am skilled in teaching all subjects up through grade 10. I am also comfortable with college level physics and astronomy. As a father of 6 kids I have extensive patience and I have learned through experience how to transfer learning to even unwilling students. Instructing in a Jet Fighter has also given me a wide range of experiences that are helpful in relating to all types of individuals, even young
