I am a graduate of Virginia Tech and did my residency, internship and fellowship at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine. There I received my doctorate in Clinical Psychology/Neuropsychology. Since leaving Vanderbilt, where I was a co-investigator for several medications to treat Alzheimer's and other dementia etiologies, I have worked as a private practicing Neuropsychologist and have been a college professor in Psychology at the graduate and undergraduate level. I have found in my tutoring, mentoring and teaching that professional practice and academic work provide a real-world application context to the information my students are learning. Learning facts that presented with contemporary applications "sticks" far better than simple memorization; even the most basic and seemingly mundane information is applicable in real-life. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, working on and riding motorcycles, and enjoy online gaming.

I am a graduate cum laude of Abilene Christian University with a bachelor of arts in History and a minor in English. I have worked as an assistant editor and have plans to continue onto graduate school with a specialization in the American Gilded Age.As a tutor, I prefer to emphasize critical thinking and technique over memorization. A student who memorizes the answers can pass a test, but a student who knows how to effectively research and problem-solve can excel in anything they do. My goal is to help my students learn critical thinking and to enjoy learning as well as become proficient in their subject.In my free time I enjoy reading, writing short stories, and playing and designing tabletop games.
I offer tutoring in all levels and areas of music theory, AP Music Theory course and testing materials, music appreciation, state-certification exam materials, and any choral or instrumental class materials. I have 20 years of teaching experience in multiple subject areas of music, including test preparation for music entrance/exit exams. I consider exam preparation to by my greatest strength in teaching. With so many years of experience in classrooms from early elementary through college, I have a wide range of knowledge and familiarity with exam standards.I graduated from Abilene Christian University with a Bachelor's in Music Education, and I am currently a certified classroom teacher in the state of Texas. My certification is PreK-12 in Vocal and Instrumental Music. I have taught choral music in the public schools of Texas and Oklahoma to grades PreK-12 and have also served as assistant band director at the middle school and high school levels.During my time in the choral music classroom, I taught AP Music Theory at Conroe High School. I received my Master's in Music Theory from the University of Oklahoma. I taught on the music theory faculty at Sam Houston State University for five years, where I taught all levels of Music Theory and Sight Singing/Ear Training to music majors, and Music Appreciation to non-majors, both in-person and online. I am a professional accompanist in the local area, and I currently teach private voice and piano lessons.Teaching is my passion, no matter what type of classroom setting I'm in. I feel that I am able to reach students just as personally online as in person, and I firmly believe that every student can have a solid understanding of the course or exam materials. I take as many approaches as I can to reach each one of my students as an individual learner, and I always find a way to share a bond with them that will aid in their success.
Lets be real for a moment. Learning is fun, but sometimes the process needs a little adaptation. With that being said, I try to incorporate a new way of looking at and learning about a subject or topic.Now that you know about how I approach teaching, allow me to go into detail on my tutoring experience. During my graduate degree program, I focused on teaching and training others in the art of teaching and learned that each student has her or his own way of discovering the world around them. I acquired this knowledge through developing not only a passion for each student as a unique individual with a way of approaching the various concepts they must learn.My qualifications include a Masters degree in Human Communication with a bachelors in Bible and Communication with over four years of teaching experience within a variety of subject areas including American Sign Language, Communication/Public Speaking, remedial Math and Science, and English.In my free time, I like spend time with friends and family, play with my service dog Grey, and observe nature in its natural state. Lets do this!

I am a graduate of Abilene Christian University. I am now pursuing my master's degree. I love working with children of all ages but my passion is working with younger children that love to have fun when learning.

Currently, I am completing a one-year research fellowship in orthopedics at UPMC and will begin the fourth year of my medical school training next July.This is a bit ironic because I used to hate school. Past: My parents were so proud of me when I wanted to test into the gifted and talented program in second grade. They didn't know it was because of a cute girl. Surprisingly, I did quite well and was granted access to this unknown world of academics. But like the great emergence of the cicada, I would not apply myself again for another 13-17 years. Lol. I have always been interested in puzzles, games, and tinkering around with tools. Naturally, the sciences peaked my interests just enough to provoke flashes of my academic potential. I now realize that it was the rigid and non-personalized structure of education that caused me to feel so disenfranchised about learning (at least in the formal sense). From first grade to my sophomore year in college, I invested just enough effort to pass my courses. However, my love for problem solving and logistics allowed me to excel in subjects involving objective learning and assessment (math, science, etc.); that is, when I showed up to class. My greatest achievement in my early education was having earned 64 referrals to the dean in one semester in seventh grade. I failed 5 classes in my sophomore year of high school because I simply did not show up. There were many moments in which my ability to graduate on time was highly uncertain. Athletics eventually afforded me admission to college, where I played football for the University of Utah. However, a lifetime of non-existent academic work ethic culminated with dropping out from my university after two years with a 1.9 gpa. I had hoped for a future NFL career, but once again academics got in the way of my happiness. After dropping out and returning home, I soon learned the value of education while bouncing between jobs over the next 2 years. I decided to finish my degree, taking one class at a time at a community college. I had to learn how to study from scratch since I had never done so before. It was tough, but I developed strategies to simplify the material for understanding rather than memorization. Soon thereafter, I began tutoring classmates before exams, helping them understand concepts they had previously struggled with. Eventually, I enrolled into a 4-year university in hopes of pursuing my newly acquired interest in academics and medicine. Desperation revealed my passion. My passion nurtured discipline. By the time I completed my coursework at ACU, I had tutored a multitude of subjects, graduated magna cum laude with university honors, earning a B.S. in Biology and Chemistry. The only difference between me then and me now is knowing my passions and desires in life and being aware that one's experience with education, like anything else, is completely dependent upon the exposures and teachers. I teach for true knowledge and hope my story inspires others to learn without limits.

I graduated with a bachelor's in biology from Abilene Christian University.

After graduating, I went to Nepal to teach English on a Fulbright scholarship, and worked as a long term substitute teacher at a local high school. I am most passionate about math and science and foreign languages. I love seeing people have "lightbulb moments" where they realize that they are more capable than they thought.

I am a graduate of Abilene Christian University, where I received a Bachelor's in Nursing Science. Since becoming an RN I have practiced nursing in multiple states at faculties like Vanderbilt and UNC. I have worked in variety of different nursing specialties such as ICU, Burn (Adult and Pediatric), Transplant, Cardiac Care and Neurology. I also completed 140 hours of NICU training.One of my favorite parts of being a nurse has been the opportunity to precept, mentor and prepare new nurses and nursing students for this awesome profession. My interest in the sciences became insatiable in high school as I tackled my first Anatomy and Physiology class, and led me to further my education in courses such as Advanced Anatomy and Physiology I and II, Microbiology, Biology, and Health Science.After being accepted to nursing school I focused on Pharmacology, Ethical Nursing, Medical Surgical Concepts, Critical Care Concepts, Pathophysiology and more. I have extensive knowledge of NCLEX preparation and remember fondly the days spent studying in perpetuity to do well on the exam.I think two of the most important parts of learning are foundational knowledge and confidence in yourself. Often times they go hand in hand and I like to build on both of those skills as we master any content :)

My goal as an educator has always been to acknowledge what my students know, and then give them tools to help them learn what they don't know. I graduated from A.C.U. in 1986 and retired in 2019. I have taught all ages and subjects. I am an Academic Language Therapist specializing in working with students with Dyslexia. In my last teaching assignment, I taught Theatre Arts to Middle School students. I helped these students produce one-act plays for competition and to perform Musicals. I love words and stories, which means I am very passionate about all things reading. Working with students through Varsity Tutors has been very rewarding. Getting to work with students of all ages who live in all parts of the nation is challenging but well worth the challenges, especially the challenge of navigating the different time zones! I look forward to the journey of learning new things alongside my students.
