Award-Winning Statistics Tutors in Tulsa, OK

I earned my PhD in experimental psychology in 2003. I have 17 years of teaching experience at the college and high school level. I have taught statistics on multiple occasions as well as a wide variety of math, science, and psychology courses. I also have extensive experience tutoring.... In my career, I have strove to become the best teacher I can be by utilizing successful techniques of my mentors and colleagues. Ultimately, I feel that I need to be flexible as an instructor to match my instruction with the course material. I strive to develop critical thinking skills in students, and to be available to students when they need assistance in any way. I feel like students respond best to instruction when they are actively engaged by the teacher. I feel I am best as a tutor and teacher when I learn how my students respond to certain instruction.

I'm Garrett, a recent nuclear engineering graduate from MS&T, and I really enjoy seeing people learn things that I know they'll use later. Due to my engineering background, I'm more focused on teaching the process of a subject rather than insuring that the answer is always correct, I feel this way leaves a student better prepared to deal with the future rather than temporarily shoring up knowledge for a test. ... To ensure students use what they learn, not just for the test but for themselves.

...to a rudimentary level and rephrasing when needed. Also, having experienced learning difficulties as a child (which were long ago rectified) forced me to become very skilled at developing personalized learning strategies. And having learned from experience how to elevate my own standardized test score from the 32nd percentile to the 85th percentile on the MCAT has been invaluable for teaching peers how to approach a difficult test and succeed. See me teach an MCAT...

...worked with another program called Ignite, which was another collaborative program between Camden city schools and Rutgers University. My responsibilities with those students involved after school tutoring and facilitating outside recreational activities. Those students were in 4th through 8th grade. For the past two years during my graduate studies, I was an academic counselor at the University of Tulsa's Center for Student Academic Support, where I worked with at-risk students and students with disabilities on...

I want to help challenge and work with students to aid them in discovering talents and abilities they didn't know they had. I believe everyone is smart, and may just need a different style of coaching/teaching to help them to be successful! ... It is important to get to know the student's specific learning style. We try looking at a problem in multiple different ways, and I assess which field (whether audio, visual, tactile) the student is most successful in. I then gear tutoring towards this type of learning for the student.

...as a teacher’s assistant in several Earth Science and Climate courses. Since finishing graduate school, I have been given a position as a lecturer at Gwynedd Mercy University in Statistics, both in class and online. I tutor Biology, Chemistry, Biochemistry, Statistics, Environmental Science and Physical Science. My favorite subjects to tutor are Biology and Biochemistry because I find it fascinating how everything on the planet, from the smallest molecule to the largest organism, is in...

...move through each section. I attended a competitive university and I know what it takes to make a student a contender at the highest level of admissions. I keep the material fresh and memorable through a variety of audiovisual approaches and real-world examples. One-on-one learning should never mean lectures, and I like to hold an ongoing conversation so students use their own learning skills in new ways to solve new kinds of problems. My creative...

...teaching assistant. The activities are similar to my previous teaching. It is worth noting that due to my teaching excellence, I was awarded Donald K. Anderson Teaching Award in 1999 by my department. From 2009 to 2014, I was a MBA/Master of Statistics student at UCLA. I have taught Statistics 102c (Intro to Monte Carlo Simulation) and Life Science 3 (Intro Mol Biol) to undergraduate students. I went through the formal teacher training/certification process offered...

...science courses. From then on, I improved myself, not just as a tutor, but as a person as well. The subjects that I tutor are mainly in the math department. The math subjects that I do enjoy tutoring the most would be Statistics, Algebra, Trigonometry, and Calculus. During my tutoring sessions, my students and I always try to have fun with the session by relating the deep mathematical concepts using silly examples. Besides my tutoring...

...engineering courses, requiring me to teach in both large classroom and one-on-one settings. I am most comfortable teaching quantitative sciences, although I also have experience teaching standardized tests and more qualitative subjects such as Biology or Chemistry. I am a born and raised Bostonian, having grown up in Reading, MA. I am a proud product of the Massachusetts Public School system. I am a die-hard Patriots fan, as well as a Bruins season ticket holder....
