Hi, I’m Sharon! I am a research scientist and registered dietitian (RD) with more than a decade of experience helping students achieve their learning goals through one-on-one and group instruction.
I hold a graduate degree in Human Nutrition and have extensive experience as an instructor for STEM courses such as nutrition, chemistry, biology, and statistics. I have been tutoring for many years and absolutely adore it!
My experience tutoring adult learners began in 2008 when I took on the role of subject area tutor at ASU. In that position, I conducted individual tutoring sessions and group exam review sessions for undergraduate nutrition, chemistry, biology, statistics, and anatomy/physiology courses. Since then, I have also taken on teaching assistant and discussion leader roles for eight graduate nutrition and biochemistry courses at two academic institutions. I have also tutored students on an individual basis since 2018.
I have extensive experience with scientific and technical writing. As a published author I greatly enjoy the iterative process of writing and have helped many students complete successful writing projects.
I am also highly qualified to assist future dietitians with their dietetic coursework and the CDR RD exam. I completed my own coursework with a 4.0 GPA and developed a study plan for the RD exam that helped me pass on the first try. To date, I have assisted more than twenty dietetics students as they navigate the process of becoming an RD.
I strive to be an open and communicative tutor who utilizes an individualized approach for each learner. Some students prefer a structured process where we create a detailed plan and I provide accountability for their completion of each step. Others prefer to come to each session with the material they need help with on that day without informing me ahead of time. As a tutor, I am committed to ensuring the success of those I work with in their respective endeavors.

Approved Subjects

Biostatistics

Biostatistics

I am a Research Scientist with a strong statistics background. I have worked with statistical programs and conduct analyses on a regular basis since 2008. I have contributed to many qualitative and quantitative research studies and am highly comfortable with research design, various statistical techniques, and data presentation. As a published author I can also provide support for individuals who are working on research projects intended for graduate program or journal submission.
Nutrition

Nutrition

I am a Registered Dietitian with more than a decade of experience working with adult learners. I have a great deal of biomedical research experience and enjoy helping others better understand nutrition and related biological and mechanistic concepts. I am also well versed in evidence based practice and have worked with many future RDs to assist them with their dietetic coursework and taking the RD exam.
SPSS

SPSS

I am well qualified to tutor those needing assistance with SPSS. I have worked with this program on a regular basis for the past fourteen years. I have used SPSS for many different purposes: to analyze data for undergraduate and graduate courses, to evaluate primary and secondary data from research studies for manuscript publication, and to work with students on their coursework and individual projects. Determining the best methods for analyzing research findings and then seeing those analyses (and table/figure creation) through to completion is also right in my wheelhouse should it be a need for a particular student.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

Sharon taught me the fundamentals of research and statistics. The information helped create an understanding of my proposed research project, which required statistical computations. Sharon provided insight into which formula was necessary for my project so that I could make the proper calculation for the research. Thank you, Sharon, for your wisdom and patience in helping me navigate and understand my assignment, especially at the last minute.

Beyond thankful for Sharon!

I'm so grateful I found Sharon to help me prepare for the CDR exam. For my first two attempts on the exam, I used Pocket Prep and materials my internship had provided me. After not passing on both attempts, I felt hopeless. I knew the next step was to find a tutor to see what I was doing wrong in regards to questions on the exam. With the help from Sharon, I passed on my third attempt scoring a 30 on just 125 questions! I cannot thank her enough for all the helpful tips and knowledge she provided me with. Would highly recommend.

Knowledgeable and encouraging

Sharon is very knowledgeable about nutrition and research. She maximized our sessions by providing plenty of feedback and recommendations for edits on my research proposal. She helped me to make my proposal more persuasive, and she took the time to explain qualitative data analysis / collection procedures. She is friendly and very encouraging. I would definitely take more tutoring sessions with her!

Knowledgeable and patience tutor

I cannot express enough wonderful things about Sharon. Since starting my doctoral program, I have felt anxious about taking statistics. Sharon is very patient when it comes to teaching statistics. I am genuinely grateful for her!

An extremely knowledgeable, patient, and incredible tutor

Sharon has taught me many techniques in understanding and overcoming my challenges with statistics. She has an amazing ability to hear and listen, a trait I have not found very often in a super-brain tutor. I am developing a confidence in my skill level, and each session no less than "7 light bulb" moments occur. I am thrilled that she is sharing her skill and talent with Wyzant and learners.

Exceptional Tutor!!!!

Sharon is an exceptional tutor! I was under a lot of pressure to complete my research assignment within a short timeframe, so I needed someone with the skills to guide me and make the most of the hour we had together. She was clear, kind, concise, observant, and knowledgeable, which made a big difference in my work. My anxiety eased as she walked me through each step. I am confident that anyone who chooses her will feel the same way. She is the one to pick!

Highly recommend

I worked with Sharon about 2x/week leading up to my exam and she helped me build confidence that I needed to pass the certified nutrition specialist exam. She provided me with exam taking tips and reminded me not to get too into the weeds because it was not necessary for the exam. I would prepare a document with highlighted questions and we would go through them and see what I was not understanding. Sharon is patient and a very good teacher. She was always ready to work through documents with me and was quick to find supporting materials to help me visually see/understand things better. She helped me finds ways to memorize/understand the challenging elements of biochem. I learned that I passed the CNS exam after waiting for almost 4 weeks. I highly recommend working with Sharon for either the RD exam or CNS

Best Nutrition Tutor!

Sharon was a God send for my son who was struggling with a very complex college-level nutrition class for his nutrition major. Biology was a required prerequisite, and biochemistry and organic chemistry were recommended prerequisites for this advanced class (which my son didn’t take). We reached out to Sharon after my son failed the 1st midterm, and under her tutelage, he went from failing to finishing the class with an A! If that doesn’t demonstrate Sharon’s competence in this subject matter, I don’t know what does. Sharon is kind, responsible, reliable, and a nutrition expert. We thank our lucky stars for finding her and we’ll reach out to her again in the future.
