About Chip


Bio

My name is Chip and I enjoy encouraging students! I have several degrees and skill sets that lend themselves to helping in different areas. I have a Master of Divinity and a Doctor of Ministry (I listed it as “other” because it is pretty unusual). Those degrees mean that along the way I have learned about some interesting things; Greek and Hebrew languages, extensive classes in areas like history, archaeology, religion, and archaeology classes. I studied the Bible with both of those degrees...

My name is Chip and I enjoy encouraging students! I have several degrees and skill sets that lend themselves to helping in different areas. I have a Master of Divinity and a Doctor of Ministry (I listed it as “other” because it is pretty unusual). Those degrees mean that along the way I have learned about some interesting things; Greek and Hebrew languages, extensive classes in areas like history, archaeology, religion, and archaeology classes. I studied the Bible with both of those degrees and the Bible speaks to some of the great areas of life and wisdom. In mid-career, I worked as a pastor to pastors in Latin America, so I needed to learn Spanish at a high level - I read and speak Spanish at a university level. For these reasons, I tutor in the areas of Bible Study, religion, history, Spanish, and ESL.

Speaking of university, I am a faculty member at a university where I have been named the outstanding faculty member of my college several times and was recently named the college’s outstanding faculty member for helping students become successful in their careers. In the wake of COVID, I decided to expand my work and do tutoring on a more one-on-one basis because, frankly, I think we all need a little more attention! For the past few years, I have been teaching English as a Second Language through video meetings with individuals in addition to helping university students, ministers, and doctoral students in different areas of study.

I am more comfortable with 18-22-year-olds and adults than I am with high school students, but I am open to working with them. I will be happy to have a free consultation with you and discuss your goals and objectives. I am in Phoenix and more than happy to tutor in public places and online. Please reach out.

Approved Subjects

American History

American History

Students will find that I am knowledgeable about American history and that I can do more than recite dates. I think I can help a student to become passionate about American and the history of the men and women, free and enslaved, who built a bold experiment.
Bible Studies

Bible Studies

I have a Master of Divinity and a Doctor of Ministry with years of experience as a pastor, a missionary, and a professor teaching Bible and ministry. I studied Greek and Hebrew for 2 years each and have used both in ministry. I have taught for years at a university but I also developed the skills to teach the Bible to native people in remote settings in South America - so I can communicate biblical truth at most levels of understanding. I look forward to helping you move forward in your understanding of the Bible.
Religion

Religion

I am an experienced church planter and pastor in both the United States and Latin America. The pastoral work began in the 1980s and my work in Latin America included 8 years of living in Latin America and since 2008 leading short-term teams to the region. I am fluent in both English and Spanish I am able to listen, consult, and give biblical and experienced responses to those with an interest in ministerial or spiritual formation.
Spanish

Spanish

I learned Spanish as a 35-year-old by complete immersion. My unusual history means that I understand the frustrations and the rewards of learning. I do NOT spend the whole lesson speaking in Spanish, but I help the student to develop hooks upon which to hang the Spanish they have learned and to build from that.
World History

World History

I have a doctorate in ministry which in my case means that I have had 7 years of graduate study in history. Along with courses work in near eastern and European history, I have lived in South America and frequented areas like Machu Picchu, the Huacas of the Sun and the Moon, and Chan Chan. I have been to several US Civil War battle fields and yes, I think about the Roman Empire quite a bit!
