Twentieth-century author Flannery O'Connor left behind two novels, thirty-two short stories, numerous essays, and one frequently-quoted observation: "I write so that I know what I'm thinking." In a similarly self-reflective spirit, I have come to believe that I teach so that I know what I have learned, and how I have learned it. During my first semester as a graduate student, my concentration within the English major was creative writing. In my second semester, I migrated to technical writing. My exposure to both disciplines has given me a great appreciation for all phases of the writing process, from the beautiful chaos of creation to the process of imposing order on what you have created: proofreading, header style definition, and everything else that makes a document look as though it had been as easy to write as it is to read. I've heard many students state plainly that they did not know how to write. I believe the first duty of a composition instructor is to prove two things to students: that they do know how to write, and that writing can be a rewarding means of self-expression, as opposed to the exercise in drudgery that students so often think it is. What I have found, in teaching both English and math, is that assignments should not simply be explained and repeated until the students catch on. Rather, the instructor should look for engaging illustrations of the concepts that underlie those assignments, so that they are easier to understand and more enjoyable to complete.

I am passionate to help students of all types and situations, to be more successful in a challenging topic like chemistry to accomplish their aspirational goals. Too many students are not given a proper opportunity by not having an instructor who is interested in them and wants the best for them.I have a Bachelor's (BS) in Biochemistry, and a Masters' (M.S.) and Doctorate (Ph.D.) in Chemistry. I have been teaching and tutoring for almost 20 years as an undergraduate student, graduate student, and now a full-time chemistry instructor and have tutored and taught High School students, University-level students, Community College students, military, returning adult learners, you name it, I've probably have taught it.I most enjoy General, Organic, and Biochemistry topics. I teach in a "I do, We do, You do" philosophy where we work through a problem together and then you attempt it. Chemistry, as most math and science courses, is best learned by doing rather than watching and having a professor tell you instead of discussing it with you.

At OSU I have taught undergraduate students through the leading of recitations, tutoring students in the statistics tutoring lab, as well as teaching a lecture section to over 200 students.In my many years of working with students in math and statistics, what I have learned is that everyone can be successful if they have the right teacher. Not everyone learns the same way, so it is important for a tutor to be able to explain the same concept in several different ways in order to find the method that works best for the student.I truly love helping others learn and grow. My favorite subjects are Statistics (of any level), Algebra I and II, Calculus I, Pre-Algebra, and Pre-Calculus, but I enjoy any opportunity to work with a student. Nothing is more satisfying than having a student who I've worked with tell me that they feel confident in their abilities. I hope to have the opportunity to help you gain confidence and subject mastery as well.
