Valuable resource

I began working with Brian when I was not doing well the second time around in Lynda Jarrell’s UTA NP pharmacology class. Brian works with students from all schools and different medical programs. He was punctual, polite, easy to work with, he helped explain things to me in ways that I understood. I ended up getting the grade I needed to pass without having retake anything. Brian helped me turn things around and helped me zone in on what was important to focus on and what I needed to know. He was well prepared and very knowledgeable. It was a pleasure working with Brian.

Kate - I am SO PROUD of the success you had with pharmacology!! You shared the previous challenges with the course and Instructor. I am SO glad we had the chance to work together and how you excelled during our time working together. Best of Luck going forward with your NP program! Brian

Knowledgeable and patient tutor!!

Brian and I went over part of the first module of Pharmaceuticals Equations. Before the tutoring session I was confused on the way to solve these problems. He was able to break it down and show me how to tackle these problems. I look forward to getting more sessions from Brian in the future.

Hi Berdith! It was a pleasure meeting and working with you this week! You are a very motivated student and glad I am able to help! I look forward to working with you! Brian

Knowledgeable and Patient

Brian is incredibly smart and works with the students and how they learn best. He uses both text, pictures, and just himself to make sure comprehension is occurring. Sessions are recorded which is helpful to be able to go back and listen to all the knowledge Brian has to share (its a lot :) )

THANKS Liz! It has been a pleasure working with you! An A in Pharmacology and an A in Psychopharmacology are fantastic! All your hard work has paid off! Whenever I can help again please reach out to me! Brian

Hi India! THANK YOU for the very kind words. You are doing very well and I wanted to both help you with the assignment along with teaching/challenging you. As an NP, these are clinical situations you might be in and want you to be prepared. Keep up the GREAT WORK! Brian

Great teacher, patients, great knowledge

I have so far not only two classes and I feel I have learned so much from Brian. Now I feel more confident to know that as I keep practicing I will acquire the knowledge I need.

Hi Evelyn! Thank you very much for the very kind words and endorsement! You are making GREAT progress! You already have had several "Ah Ha" moments which makes both our days! Keep up the great work. Brian

Wonderful and Patient Mentor!

Brian was extremely helpful in helping me to prepare for a major CME presentation. He gave me time to practice presenting the slides and gave critiques along the way, helping to build my confidence with public speaking.

Hi Liz! THANK YOU SO MUCH for the great review and kind words! You are making GREAT progress and strides with your hard work. As I've said to you and many I've worked with, the "Ah HA, NOW I get it!" like you have said several times already, is the reason I am doing and enjoy teaching / tutoring. Keep up your GREAT WORK! Brian

Brian is extremely competent, professional, courteous, and patient.

Brian taught me to integrate real-world clinical applications, evidenced-based practice, and expertise into problem-solving. Brian was easygoing and highly personable, which promoted a relaxed learning experience for understanding and comprehending complex questions. I would highly recommend contacting Brian for your tutoring sessions.

George- THANK YOU for the comprehensive and fantastic review/evaluation of our session. I enjoyed working with you on this case and look forward to working together again! Brian

Brian has been very patient and I have learned a lot.

Pharmacology math basics I truly appreciate him. I would recommend him to anyone. He actually enjoys being a Tudor. My basic skills were very weak and I have improved in my math skills.
