About James


Bio

I have a proven tract record of helping students achieve A's in courses they struggle in. I teach step by step to show the student how to work a problem and teach them how to solve problems on their own. I create my own tests to help them be prepared for their own exams and build their confidence up.

I have a proven tract record of helping students achieve A's in courses they struggle in. I teach step by step to show the student how to work a problem and teach them how to solve problems on their own.

Background:
I attended army high school and Georgia Military College. While at both military institutions I was asked to tutor the football team and cadets in math and science courses. I helped many of them keep their eligibility and make high grades in those courses. I transferred to Auburn University to complete my bachelors in Chemical Engineering. I tutored both engineering students and athletes in math, science, and engineering courses with much success. I have taught classes at both Vanderbilt and University of Alabama in Huntsville as a teacher assistant.

I teach all courses from learning support pre algebra up to differential equations. I have taught and helped students pass their GED, ASVAB, SATs and ACTs.

Education:
Bachelors in Chemical Engineering
Masters in Chemical and Bimolecular Engineering
Masters in Industrial and Systems Engineering

Approved Subjects

Chemical Engineering

Chemical Engineering

I received a bachelors in Chemical Engineering with a 3.7 GPA. I have successfully completed as well as tutored Principles of Chemical Engineering, Fluids/Transport, Thermodynamics, Heat and Mass Transfer, Separations, along with other chemical engineering elective. I am currently pursuing a PhD in Chemical Engineering.
Differential Equations

Differential Equations

I received a bachelors in Chemical Engineering with a 3.7 GPA. I have successfully completed as well as tutored Principles of Chemical Engineering, Fluids/Transport, Thermodynamics, Heat and Mass Transfer, Separations, along with other chemical engineering elective. I am currently pursuing a PhD in Chemical Engineering. Regarding math courses, I made an A in Linear Algebra, Differential Equations, Calculus 1,2 and 3. I have tutored these courses as well for Auburn University and Gordon College and I currently tutor these courses.
Linear Algebra

Linear Algebra

I received a bachelors in Chemical Engineering with a 3.7 GPA. I have successfully completed as well as tutored Principles of Chemical Engineering, Fluids/Transport, Thermodynamics, Heat and Mass Transfer, Separations, along with other chemical engineering elective.

I have tutored these courses as well for Auburn University and Gordon College and I currently tutor these courses.
Thermodynamics

Thermodynamics

I have taken Thermodynamics in undergraduate and graduate level courses. I have also tutored Themo for over 10 years. Thermo is more chemical engineering focused which is why the other disciplines take more training to understand the properties and the energy transfer.

Patient and knowledgeable.

My daughter learned more in two hours with James than she had learned in three weeks of the college course. He is able to explain processes in Diff Eq in terms she can understand.

Very Knowledgeable in Calculus

James was very helpful with breaking down the word problems and explaining the steps to take in order to solve others. He is very knowledgeable in calculus and if he can't figure out the problem during the session he is willing to work it out in his spare time to help you understand it and sends a picture of the work with an explanation. James is highly recommended.
