Award-Winning ACT Science Tutors in Virginia Beach, VA

I will make it the ultimate goal of every student I tutor to understand absolutely everything that they have trouble with. I aim to help with critical thinking and inquiry so that the student not only solves the problem, but understands the concepts and where they need to be used.

...in the desired subject area. I tend to apply alternative methods that encourage open communication, and interactive engagement (versus "top down" teaching strategies). I believe strongly in self-assessment and giving the student the ability not only to find their strengths, but also their weaknesses and give them the skills to overcome those challenges through attainable milestones. I have fostered and tutored three nieces into advanced programs and honor rolls in their schools through my method...

...well as an active tutor for Tau Beta Pi, which is an engineering honor society. My primary tutoring experience has mainly been with entry level college students in the fields of science, math, and engineering.

I have been teaching science for 14 years now in NC. I graduated from Elizabeth City State University with a degree in Biology and a minor in chemistry. I believe it is ok to struggle, as long as it is a successful struggle. If we don't learn it one way, then we change the way we are taught!

I am here for you, and my job is help you do better and build upon what you already know.
