I am a graduate of Bellevue University where I received my Bachelor of Science in Adult Education. I am also a Licensed Practical Nurse. I have worked in nursing roles at hospitals. I have also worked in roles such as billing and registration. The last twelve years I have taught healthcare education. I have served in roles such as program director, clinical coordinator along with instructor.While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about medical terminology, direct patient care and cardiology. In my experience with students I found that we are most successful through open discussion. This provides the opportunity for me to see where assistance is needed. Education is the foundation to success, and I enjoy being part of the success of my students. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, working in my yard and spending time with family.

My teaching philosophy for over 10 years has been based on active learning in which the student becomes a critical and analytical thinker as well as a problem solver of the material being covered. Furthermore, I believe patience, compassion, understanding, and care for the student's needs are necessary factors in the learning process. Moreover, establishing a positive rapport with the student and creating an atmosphere conducive to learning is as important as my having command of the subject matter. Having instructed a variety of business courses at universities and community colleges, I have found using a more nurturing style presents positive results than one of rigidity. If the student discerns I am truly interested in their taking hold of the material at their learning pace, the student is more comfortable and receptive of me. Comprehending and gaining knowledge is vital to the student's success.Furthermore, and lastly, teaching is an art whether face-to-face or online. Anyone can pick up a text and instruct a student to read these chapters or those pages. A major challenge for a teacher or tutor is to transmit knowledge to the student in an efficient and stimulating manner with comprehension combined with remembrance of the material being the fundamental outcome. To this end, my goal is to equip students with a set of conceptual tools to navigate through the often contradictory and ambiguous mass of information within a course to clutch a firm understanding of the material to be acquired.

I have a masters in Applied physics from Johns Hopkins and a Bachelor's in Mathematics from Bellevue. I have been teaching for 6 years now. Most of my experience is high school and college students. My absolute favorite subject is physics. It is my passion, I love learning the math behind how things work, it helps me understand the universe. My teaching methods are different based on the student. My basic focus is to allow my students to be as interactive as possible. I want them to feel free to ask questions and I try to get them to participate as much as possible. I do this by using digital inking, with math it helps to see what is going on, and by asking them a lot of questions and giving practice problems. Outside of academics I love being outside, spending time with my family and playing video games. I believe anyone can succeed at anything with the right amount of effort and determination and it is my personal goal to help each and every student reach all of their goals.
