Experienced Tutor -- Arithmetic through Calculus

I am an experienced mathematics tutor (13 years, over 5,000 hours, and many students) with plenty of success to back up the time put into my endeavors. I received my BA in Mathematics from Ottawa University, KS, online, and also possess a BA in History from Ohio University, Main Campus, Athens.

I served as a mathematics tutor for both Lourdes University (Sylvania, Ohio) and Owens Community College (Toledo/Findlay, Ohio). Prior to the expansion of my horizons at said institutions, I served as a long time mathematics tutor, online mathematics tutor, and mathematics instructor for Terra State Community College.

I am highly passionate about helping others understand the world of mathematics. My philosophy is that everyone is capable of understanding mathematics and for every mind that exists, there exist a different way of understanding the world of mathematics.

Over the years I have helped students develop not only an understanding of mathematics, but a new found enthusiasm for the subject as well. It is not uncommon to see the grades of students I have tutored raise by one letter or more.

I would say my most important trait as a tutor is that I do not make the students feel inferior, stupid, or incompetent; I work very hard to understand the minds of the students I encounter so I can help shape my knowledge into a knowledge of their own. A friend of mine told me that I am a genius with helping others understand mathematics.

I am highly confident that any customer who chooses me as their private tutor will not be disappointed. I do prefer college aged or non-traditional college students.

Thank you and I look forward to working with you in the future.
