My passion in life is helping others realize their goals. We all have a different way of learning and processing information. Past life experiences most often determine our current and future situations. I realize that certain subjects can be easy to some and challenging to others; however, we can build a strategy that evolves to meet your needs.

I served 24 years in the Naval Service; with 15 years as a professionally trained instructor. Additionally, I have a background in business and human resource management. If you are thinking about a military career and need assistance with the ASVAB or GED please contact me. Other services include study skills, computer system, economics and career development. As a teacher, I use a variety of techniques to maximize understanding. I have tutored scores of clients achieve superb results on their exams through proper study skills. Let's get started and form a partnership!

Test PREP content and full diagnostic practice exams provided; general content in all areas provided.

American History

Here in America we are descended in spirit from revolutionaries and rebels -- men and women who dare to dissent from accepted doctrine.


-- Dwight D. Eisenhower

The United States has a rich history that is growing by the day. We managed to assimilate many cultural values and traditions to form our version of democracy. There is nothing hard about this subject...just a desire to learn important events...the rewards and consequences of decisions in our country. I look... Read More

General Computer

I have 20+ years of general computing experience. Besides the everyday use of systems, I have helped many clients with home network setup, software installs...both operating systems and productivity software (MS Office).
I can assist with the integration of various peripheral hardware, ensuring that all of your systems will work with each other. Most importantly, if you want to get beyond the on/off button and learn what is inside the box...write me, I can help.

Prealgebra

Prealgebra is taught between the fifth and eighth grade. The objective of prealgebra is to prepare the student for the study of algebra.

Prealgebra includes several broad subjects:

•Review of natural number arithmetic
•New types of numbers such as integers, fractions, decimals and negative numbers
•Factorization of natural numbers
•Properties of operations such as associativity and distributivity
•Simple (integer) roots and powers
•Rules of evaluation... Read More

Government & Politics

Government and Politics is a broad and diverse subject…it really depends in what country a person lives in. This is no different in our country. People’s way of doing things is different…folks think, act and have fundamental differences throughout the various states. The study of general concepts used to interpret U .S. government and politics requires familiarity with the various institutions, groups, beliefs, and ideas that constitute U .S. government and politics. While there is no single approach... Read More

Economics

Economics deals with the principles that apply to the analysis of the behavior of individual consumers, businesses and nations in the economy. Students will generally apply analytical techniques to hypothetical as well as real-world situations to evaluate economic decisions. Expect to demonstrate an understanding of how free markets work and allocate resources efficiently.

Identifying the characteristics of the different market structures is critical as well as the ability to analyze... Read More

GED

The Tests of General Education Development, or GED Tests, are standardized tests that measure skills required of high school graduates. The ultimate goal in passing these exams is a certificate that is equivalent to a high school diploma. A GED certificate can be useful for gaining admission to college, for obtaining certain vocational licenses, or for finding employment in the many types of jobs that require a high school diploma or its equivalent.

The GED consists of five tests that... Read More

TOEFL

The TOEFL tests an individual's ability to use and understand English in an academic setting. The exam was developed to address the problem of ensuring English language proficiency for non-native speakers wishing to study at U.S. universities. It has become an admission requirement for non-native English speakers at many English-speaking colleges and universities. Additionally, institutions such as government agencies, licensing bodies, businesses, or scholarship programs may require this test... Read More

ASVAB

The Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) is used by the military services to determine if a candidate is qualified to enlist in the armed services.

The ASVAB has 10 tests. Scores from four of the tests:

Word Knowledge (WK)
Paragraph Comprehension (PC)
Arithmetic Reasoning (AR)
Mathematics Knowledge (MK)

These are combined to compute your score on what is referred to as the Armed Forces Qualification Test (AFQT). Scores on the AFQT... Read More

Elementary Math

What is it about math that creates so much anxiety in people? Hard to really say because we do some form of calculation every day, whether it’s buying our favorite cold drink or that special product that we have been saving for…maybe it is figuring out time distance or the measurement of a football field in yards or feet. Perhaps someone wants to know how to break a dollar down into portions or fractions. We literally use addition, subtraction, multiplication and division every single day. Read More

Study Skills

I have worked with many students that chose the armed services as a career. Many were fresh out of high school. As anyone can imagine, study skills and organization are primary areas of emphasis. Learning to take impact notes while reducing fluff words significantly enhances opportunities to excel in just about any subject. I tell all my clients to focus on what is being asked of them. This means read for purpose and invest in themselves by dedicating hours outside of the classroom. Where do I... Read More

Fitness

I possess over 20 years of leading fitness sessions in a military environment. I attended and graduated from the Navy's elite Recruit Division Commnader's Drill Instructor's course, earning a certification to lead navy recruits and students through daily approved fitness improvement program, nutrition and hydration requirements.
