ACCEPTING STUDENTS FALL/WINTER.

I currently work as an Infectious Disease NP. I worked for eight years as a bedside RN, last in the float pool.

I hold a Doctor of Nursing Practice degree from the University of South Carolina, completed in 2024. Over 3 months, I completed my Doctoral Project on reducing C. diff infections on high-touch surfaces by using hydrogen peroxide wipes. In addition, I earned certifications as a Certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-C), Medical-Surgical (CMSRN), and Progressive Care Nurse (PCCN), equipping me with essential pedagogical techniques and methodologies to help undergrad and graduate students achieve success.

I have over 2 years of experience as a teacher's aide and tutoring students in undergraduate core Nursing Courses [Assessment, Pharm, Patho, Med-Surg, Critical Care], with a strong focus on understanding key concepts.

I have a 100% pass rate for the AANC/AANP Family Nurse Practitioner Certification Exam. I emphasize key exam material, practice questions, and effective learning techniques to help FNP students pass on the first attempt.

My approach combines personalized learning plans and active engagement strategies to tailor instruction to each student’s unique needs and goals. In my tutoring sessions, I emphasize building a strong conceptual foundation, developing critical thinking skills, and using real-world clinical scenarios to foster confidence in undergraduate nursing courses and graduate students completing their ADN, BSN, MSN, or DNP.

Awesome Tutor

He knew very well what he was doing and knew the material inside and out. Ty did a good job explaining the material and going over the material. I appreciate all the help and kindness. He is also getting me through nursing school which is very difficult and is knowledge is very vast in this field.

NP review

TY was extremely helpful throughout my Nurse Practitioner review process. They took the time to break down complex concepts into clear, easy-to-understand explanations, and provided practical tips that made studying more focused and efficient. Their guidance not only reinforced key clinical knowledge but also boosted my confidence in approaching difficult exam topics.

Ty is an amazing tutor! Very patient and understanding. Explains things well too. Genuinely helps to understand whatever topic you’re talking about. I’m studying for my AANP FNP boards and starting to have faith in myself now!

Knowledgeable and cool tutor

Ty was very detail-oriented and explained concepts in an easy way to remember. He also speaks good Spanish, so I was able to understand better. He even made a review for me to follow. I was going for one session only and now I booked my second one for saturday! Highly recommend! :)

Great teacher!

Tyler is super knowledgeable and really wants you to pass your boards. My first session I learned so much from him and I love that he engages you. I am a visual learner so he showed me pictures and asked me questions to make sure I fully understand the material. Highly recommend if you studying for you ANCC/AANP exam.

I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to Ty, who has been the best tutor I’ve ever worked with. Throughout this course, I’ve never felt more supported or secure when submitting my assignments. Ty’s guidance, clarity, and dedication gave me the confidence I needed at every step. Their feedback was not only constructive but empowering, helping me improve while keeping me motivated. Thanks to Ty, I now feel extremely confident that I will pass this course. I truly couldn’t have done it without their support. Highly recommended to anyone seeking a tutor who genuinely cares and goes above and beyond.
