I have always loved helping my classmates figure out tough lessons. In that sense, I have been tutoring since elementary school, but in college I sought to make more of a professional go of it. I was CRLA certified as a Level 2 tutor, and tutored for the University of Georgia for 2 years while I finished my undergraduate degree. I majored in Physics and International Affairs, and minored in Spanish. I am now pursuing a Masters in Nuclear Engineering and continuing as a private tutor to pay...
I have always loved helping my classmates figure out tough lessons. In that sense, I have been tutoring since elementary school, but in college I sought to make more of a professional go of it. I was CRLA certified as a Level 2 tutor, and tutored for the University of Georgia for 2 years while I finished my undergraduate degree. I majored in Physics and International Affairs, and minored in Spanish. I am now pursuing a Masters in Nuclear Engineering and continuing as a private tutor to pay for tuition.
While tutoring for UGA I had so many incredibly smart students (lots of engineering majors) who struggled with Calculus and Intro Physics courses.
I realized that the people who tend to excel in higher math's and physics don't always have great communications skills, which makes for some really poor professors. I am passionate about helping students overcome this, and I love helping them find the lightbulb moments.
