I have a BBA in Computer Information Systems from Howard University (1982) and a Master's Degree in Computer Science from Marist College (1991). I was a 1985 recipient of the Outstanding Young Men of America Award. I served professionally as a computer programmer for more than 20 years and am currently career changing into the medical field. I have also completed Pre-Med studies (2003) and I'm currently in the process of completing an official BS Biology degree focusing on molecular biology. My ultimate desire is to offer a potential contribution to the overall cure for cancer. I would also like to complete a Masters / PhD in molecular biology. I have passionately tutored math and science since 1984 and will continue to encourage students to be the absolute best that they can be.

I have had the wonderful privilege of tutoring math and science part time, at all levels, to students (K-12) since 1984. My experience enables me to quickly ascertain each student's best learning style (visual, audible, or a combination) and then teach accordingly. This quality is essential to facilitate the learning process as it is directly evidenced by each student's measurable progress and self-confidence. Many students also develop additional learning styles in this process. I also engage each student to become comfortable enough to present his or her topic of study to someone else. Some of my former students now teach others.

So, I am passionate with each student regarding his or her subject matter and encourage each one ultimately to consider passing on the knowledge to someone else thereby enhancing our global society.

Homeschool:

Algebra 1

I teach from elementary math to calculus, but I find many students need assistance with Algebra 1 and Algebra 2. I am adept at helping students understand the material in a very methodical fashion. I teach every aspect of Algebra and know how to teach each student according to his or her learning style. I have been tutoring students in Algebra since 1984 and have literally worked with and helped hundreds of students.

Algebra 2

I have tutored Algebra 1 and Algebra 2 since 1984 and I know how to effectively communicate the material in a fashion understandable to each student at his or her level. All my students who have done what I have asked them to do have been successful with the course material and I have worked with hundreds of students over the years. Those who deviate and choose not to be diligent tend not to be as successful.

Biology

I have tutored Biology concepts to many students over the years. I have completed Pre Med studies and I know how to present the subject matter to my students. Special areas include (Genetics, Mitosis, Meiosis, Organelles, Cellular Respiration, etc.).

Chemistry

I have tutored chemistry to many students and I know how to effectively communicate the material to facilitate the learning process. I can teach the broad spectrum of chemistry topics (Equilibrium, Solution chemistry, colligative properties, Stoichiometry, Reaction Rates (Kinetics), Acids and Bases, Enthropy, etc.).

Geometry

Geometry incorporates many Algebra 1 concepts to help determine measurements of various structures (polygons, circular parts, etc.). I am able to present this material to students in a methodical fashion to facilitate understanding.

Prealgebra

I have taught prealgebra and algebra in a methodical fashion to many students. I am able to teach each student according to his or her level of understanding, so that the confidence level increases. I have extensive experience in working with students with different backgrounds and personalities. I am able to gain each student's trust, so that the learning process is facilitated.

Precalculus

I have helped many students with Pre-calculus concepts over several years to include Algebra II and Trigonometry topics. I know how to present the material in an understandable fashion to each student, based upon learning style and current level of understanding.

SAT Math

I have tutored many students all levels of math, including algebra, trigonometry, and calculus as well as ACT and SAT math. I know how to present the material to students in an understandable fashion. I have taught most of my college bound students SAT math.

GED

I have had the opportunity to encourage many young adults to pursue the GED and pass it, so that they can position themselves for a promising future. I am able to present the material to each student in an understanding fashion according to his or her learning style and ability.

ASVAB

I have experience helping a few youngsters pass the ASVAB exam. I have tutored math and science since 1984 and know how to present the material, so that each student can understand how it relates and have success.

ACT Math

I have tutored many students all levels of math, including algebra, trigonometry, and calculus as well as ACT and SAT math. I know how to present the material to students in an understandable fashion.

COBOL

I have a BBA in Management Information Systems and an MS in Computer Science. I used COBOL for many of my undergrad projects, including one of my advanced programming courses, which used COBOL. I also programmed using COBOL professionally as an independent contractor. One of the many projects I used COBOL for was a Y2K project with PEPCO in Washington, DC to prevent many of their existing programs from crashing when handling data beyond 1999.

Computer Programming

I have a BBA and MS in computer science and have done computer programming for 20+ years. I have written many programs, so I am very familiar with developing structured algorithms using pseudocode as well as using flowcharting.

TEAS

I am familiar with the TEAS format and I know the subject matter well including pharmacology, college chemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry, cell biology, microbiology, nutrition, medical terminology, Physics, English, and Calculus 2 mathematics from completing Pre Med studies. I also volunteered for 2 years in the Progressive Care Wing at Prince William Hospital.
