I graduated from an accelerated BSN program at Texas Tech University. I also have a BS in Zoology from The Ohio State University where I also completed Air Force ROTC. I served 7 years as a commissioned officer in the United States Air Force in charge of air traffic controllers and airfield management personnel. I met my husband while on active duty and after we got engaged, I separated from the Air Force and pursued my passion for nursing. I am excited to share my experience with taking the NCLEX, various study strategies that I learned while in a demanding 12-month accelerated nursing program, and my experience as a graduate nurse in a Level II trauma center. I am a big proponent of understanding the 'why' behind pathophysiology, signs, and symptoms, and nursing interventions. Trying to memorize everything is impossible and will not help you pass the NCLEX, however, if you understand the concept and pathophysiology, you can usually get the right answers and be way more successful.

I just graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Biology from Texas Tech University. I am currently in the process of applying for dental schools and hope to one day become an orthodontist. I have an immense passion for learning, and the best way for me to learn is to teach. When I was in college I would always offer to tutor my friends in their classes, and I ended up doing this for the 3.5 years that I was in school. Every time I would see how I was helping them achieve their goals I would fall more in love with teaching. Now that I am out of school I still want to continue to be able to help people learn in a fun environment, so they can enjoy what they are learning. I have found my passion in the dental field and I hope to help others find their passion as well!

Voice/singing: I have taken private voice lessons for about 10 years. I also grew up participating in school choirs and theater. I have since been coaching people on different medias. My training is in classical and musical theater, but I also enjoy a variety of genres. History and study skills: As a student, I struggled with dyslexia and had to get help through tutoring and other support. I worked hard and accepted all the help that I could get. I was always surprised that I was on the honor roll despite my struggling. I started to notice that some of the best students also received assistance in their learning. Over time, I became one of the best students and was asked to tutor others. I learned that accepting help and aid wasn't weak, but was smart. Over the years I tested different ways of learning and studying to help me succeed. I now have a bachelors in history with a minor in anthropology, and I am earning my masters in museum studies. Other: I've worked for the Boy Scouts, teaching outdoor skills, such as climbing and archery. I have also interned with the Park Service, giving tours and ranger talks to visitors. I am very involved in the outdoors and love outdoor activities. I'm always willing to teach people about the outdoors, how to adventure safely and protect the natural environment and wildlife.

9+ Years Tutoring

Let me start by thanking you for dropping by my page and taking the time to get to know a little about me. To begin with, I have excelled in academics from a young age. My competitive nature had me checking in at the scores table in everything I could handle. Whether it was UIL acting, science, maps/graphs/charts, spelling, science, or creative writing, I loved to learn and compete. While in middle-school, I was honored by Duke University for scoring in the top percentile of Duke's TIP program which allows middle school students to take either the SAT or ACT after receiving instruction and prep. These interests continued on into high-school where I eventually graduated as 21 out of 550+ students. However, academics were not my only strong point. I was awarded track athlete of the year as well as both "Mix 96 Player of the Year" and "Linebacker of the year" for football. I was the President of the first ever student formed Fellowship of Christian Athletes on my campus, a member of student council, the national honor society, and took part in several sports and youth groups. On the weekends, I enjoyed competing all over Texas with a traveling basketball team I was a part of. Fortunately, this early commitment to excellence helped me secure a spot with the Texas Tech Football team. In addition, I received a merit scholarship from Texas Tech based on my SAT scores and had my whole first year of college paid for by local scholarships I was awarded. After four years, I received my BA from Texas Tech and continued straight into my legal education. In may of 2014, I was awarded my JD from Texas Tech School of Law. I currently clerk for a law firm and tutor students. My teaching philosophy is that superior performance is something that can be achieved by each and every student with proper mentoring. I sculpt out every lesson based on the student's individual learning style and needs. One of the most important aspects of my tutoring consists of practice, practice, practice. Whether it is in athletics or academics, we will not achieve excellence unless we practice and prepare for excellence. I leave you with an open invitation to ask me any questions pertaining to my services and a quote I live by. "We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act but a habit." -Aristotle

I finished my college education in 2001 by earning my Ph.D. in economics from Texas Tech University. I have been a college-level economics teacher beginning in 1992 and have been teaching economics students since then. Over the years, I have learned much more about the economics discipline itself, how economists do economics. Throughout my career, I have treated all my students as adults, respecting their ideas and opinions, having learned as much from them as they have learned from me. Believing all learning is initiated from a point of knowledge, I want to know where students are in their programs, what are their strengths and weaknesses especially. I help them leverage their strengths in addressing their weaknesses. This in the end makes for a more confident student, someone who not only believes they can accomplish that which they face on their own, but one who will overcome their challenges and will accomplish their goals. This approach is what I have taken over my lifetime in regards my own learning needs and as lifetime learner. I attest this approach to life has been enjoyably fruitful.
