I have 14 years of military & civilian nursing experience in Med/Surg, Emergency Nursing, and more recently Primary Care/Family Practice as a Doctorally-prepared Family Nurse Practitioner. I have cumulative experience precepting 2 NP's, 16+ new RN's/LPN's, 8 RN/LPN students, and 80+ Navy Corpsman/CNA's in everyday clinical skills & knowledge - it was a blast!

I have been tutoring for 3 years, and I love it! 1 on 1 tutoring provides me with the unique opportunity to customize material to my student's individual style, so they can have the always satisfying "Ah-ha!" moment. I would describe myself as bubbly, dedicated, hard-working, and patient. I strive to make my sessions fun & relatable because it helps with content retention & because, quite frankly, nursing is the best!

I enjoy teaching anatomy/physiology, pathophysio, med/surg, adult health, peds/OB, health promo, NCLEX, AANP FNP - if you don't see your subject, just message me as I can likely help. I actively maintain multiple professional and resuscitative medicine certifications, which have allowed me to develop a good understanding of testing psychology and formal exam structure. I stay current by doing Kaplan, UWorld, Saunders, Fitzgerald, Sarah Michelle test prep questions and CE's. I have many tips & tricks to share for both nursing schools & board exams.

I am able to help any level of nursing students, associate to doctoral. Of note, I only tutor a small amount of students at a time, which helps me be available when needed & prepare for sessions. Please reach out as I am happy to talk to you & see if we are a good fit!

Approved Subjects

Anatomy

Anatomy

Strong understanding of anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology having taken multiple graduate courses in this area. Extensive acute care experience in ER/ICU as well as primary care settings, which has helped me develop a good practical understanding of clinical anatomy/physiology (disease presentation, symptomatology, etc.).
Career Development

Career Development

I can provide good insight into undergraduate & graduate school planning, military commissioning programs, and nursing licensure & certification exams. I am a first generation college student, who commissioned as a military officer, obtained a doctorate, and holds multiple nursing licenses & certifications. I would love to help you with college prep or career planning questions. Thank you!
English

English

I would love to help you with speaking and english writing assignments. Reading/writing has always been a very strong area for me. I especially enjoy doing grammar/rewriting edits, APA formatting, and paper structuring. Additionally, I have extensive doctoral level writing experience, with a heavy emphasis on researching databases and data review/appraisal. Of note, I completed database publishing of a 100+ plus, doctoral level, quality improvement project. I have a very friendly and patient demeanor, with a desire to help others succeed, especially when it comes to scholarly topics!
NCLEX

NCLEX

I have precepted many LPN, BSN, doctoral nursing students, helping them to ready themselves for board exams. Personally, I did 1600+ review questions and two review courses when preparing for my NCLEX exam- I treated it like a full-time job, and am versed in the preparatory process. I have maintained my BLS, ACLS, PALS certifications, and have my Certification in Emergency Nursing, demonstrating my commitment to staying clinically relevant in nursing.
Nursing

I have a passion for teaching nursing, especially AANP/NCLEX test prep, pathophysio, A&P, APA, DNP project topics! I love to infuse humor, and get to know my students personally to make material relatable and relevant. I have my DNP and passed the AANP FNP exam in 7/2023. I completed an intensive 1.5 year long NP residency program with Johns Hopkins in Primary Care following graduation. I have 3 years as NP in family practice, and 11 years as a RN, mostly in ER/surgical setting. I have maintained active certs in ACLS, PALS, BLS. Additionally, I have my Certification in Emergency Nursing. I did over 1800 AANP style review questions and thorough content review via multiple high quality review programs, and felt very well prepared for the exam. Additionally, I passed my NCLEX in 75 questions after doing a week long Kaplan in-person review + approx 2200 practice questions. I treated both board preps like a full time job, with the adequate prep and structure it deserves.

Incredibly knowledgable, proactive and helpful tutor!

Shannon and I have covered several disease processes for Adult Health Theory II for my ABSN program. She is clearly knowledgeable and adept at helping a person to understand and grasp nursing concepts/processes (ADPIE) and even goes above and beyond to address NCLEX-style questions and thought processes. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
