10+ years of tutoring

Lipscomb University

Having graduated from Lipscomb University with my bachelor's in Computer and Electrical Engineering, I have several years of experience studying and implementing engineering and mathematics concepts. While in college, I worked with students in various subjects, including physics, college algebra, calculus, chemistry, and engineering-specific courses. I love to tutor mathematics and physics, for it is in these subjects that the foundation of engineering is built upon. I also enjoy teaching problem solving to students! I have a passion for helping others understand material that is difficult or foreign to them, and I work hard to try and make the time I have with students meaningful and effective. I am currently a graduate student at Vanderbilt University pursuing my PhD in Electrical Engineering. My hobbies include singing, gardening, playing piano, and computers/robotics.

Q&A with Brandon

I try to get the students to be involved in the learning environment. This includes getting the student to work out examples on paper or white-board in order to make sure he/she is fully engaged in the material. How can you help a student become an independent learner? I try to provide practical examples of how the information learned can be used in everyday life. Once I see the application of a topic, I am much more interested in learning about it on my own, and I hope that the student experiences the same.
