About Me

I graduated from University of Central Florida with a Bachelor of Arts in History and a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology. I also have a Juris Doctor from Florida A&M University College of Law. I began tutoring students in high school and have continued to do so since then, helping students ranging from middle school to law school. Though my tutoring subjects cover a broad spectrum, my favorite subject to cover is History because I'm fascinated by how analysis of a set of facts can change the whole story without changing those facts. With all my students, I believe if I'm doing a great job, then eventually I won't be needed. That is to say that I tutor in a way that promotes confidence and self-sufficiency over time. In my experience, I have found that the most successful students are not the ones that are taught the answers, but rather the ones that are taught the skills to get to the answers. This is best demonstrated in Essay Writing, where I may start with a student that is overwhelmed by simply choosing a topic and see that student get to a point where help is wanted only after he or she has finished the first draft. I am a firm believer that every student can learn as long as an interest is taken by the instructor. When an instructor cares, they want to make the subject enthralling and worth understanding. After that first "a-ha" moment every student gets, learning becomes exciting for them. When I am not working, I spend my spare time enjoying the beach, camping, reading, traveling, playing music, homebrewing (science in action!), and being part of some amazing fandoms.
