My favorite part of tutoring is what I call the light bulb moments. These are the moments when a topic makes sense to a student, and if we were in a cartoon, a light bulb would appear over their head. And this is usually the moment when students believe that I don't have more talent in the subject that them; I simply have more practice. I graduated with my Master of Science in Analytical Chemistry from Texas Tech University in 2011, and have tutored students in chemistry and math since 2002. In addition to tutoring, I have taught both as a TA and as an adjunct professor, at the University of Washington, Texas Tech, and the University of the Incarnate Word. I have taught chemistry labs (general, analytical, and nursing chemistry), general chemistry I and II, and first semester nursing chemistry. In my free time, I enjoy reading, crafting, and walking. I am currently working on making my first bed size quilt and have completed the San Antonio Rock n Roll half marathon twice.

I have a passion for helping other students excel in their work. My expertise in the area of finance, accounting, and taxation. However, I enjoy tutoring subjects that are number-related (math, finance, accounting, algebra) or technology-related (Excel, Word, PPT). My PhD is in Finance, and I have Masters degrees in Taxation, Forensic Accounting, and an MBA. I have tutored for several years. I enjoy working with students and guiding them to the right strategy, method, and solution. I use a student-centered approach. I believe "success is a journey, not a destination." In other words, we are all life-long students, and we should never be content with stopping the learning process. The goal should be to continue advancing our knowledge and expertise in different areas. Not only will it make us more balanced, but it will allow us to adapt and grow as new discoveries and advances are made. My hobbies are running, hiking, swimming, and watching the San Antonio Spurs play! I look forward to helping you on your educational journey and can't wait to see you excel and advance your learning potential.

I have over ten years of experience in higher education student support, to include several years of teaching and tutoring. I love to support students and provide "tricks of the trade" to help them crack the toughest test questions.I believe every student has the potential to learn and that the teaching/learning relationship requires 100% effort from the teacher and student. Because each student learns differently, it's important for educators to quickly learn their students' learning styles so they can adapt the material and the approach to best meet the students' needs.I teach with care and patience. The best part of teaching is helping a student to independently solve problems. I will work with students relentlessly to help them be successful.

I am a fourth-year medical student beginning my Family Medicine residency in the fall. I received my Bachelor of Science in Biology from St. Edward's University, Human Anatomy Specialization certification from the Univeristy of Michigan, and am a certified EMT (ACLS, BLS, PALS).The way I learned was by breaking complex topics into easily digestible pieces and looking at things from different points of view. I am very much a visual learner, so I draw (pretty much everything) out.I began tutoring in high school and fell in love with helping students find a way to use their strengths to overcome their learning obstacles.During college, I worked as a student tutor specializing in introductory and advanced Biology, Human Physiology, academic and scientific writing, and academic coaching.While I enjoy all of the subjects that I tutor, I am most passionate about Academic Coaching. During high school, I struggled to simply keep up with my courses, much less "succeed". It wasn't until college that I learned how to study appropriately, determine and utilize my own learning style, manage my time, and succeed in my courses.I love tutoring because it gives me the opportunity to help my students develop these skills and succeed earlier in their academic careers. I am a strong believer in the adage, "think smarter, not harder"!
