Hello, my name is Johnathon, and I graduated on the Dean’s List with a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from Texas A&M University in 2004. In my study groups, I often found myself leading the concept explanations, and I quickly discovered a talent for helping others learn. Even in more complex courses like Statistics, my own comprehension improved through the process of analyzing and explaining concepts to others. I still bring this approach to my tutoring today — by creating lesson plans that break down material into interesting yet simple sections, I can make learning accessible, even with the most challenging subjects. Over my years of teaching and tutoring, I have found that follow-through is just as important as the initial instruction, so I provide ample opportunities for students to review and demonstrate mastery of the material.
I have completed a TEFL certification (OISE, 150 hours) with specializations in teaching English for business and for Mandarin speakers. I have worked as a substitute teacher, primarily for high school and middle school students, covering courses including English, mathematics up to trigonometry, and all social studies and sciences. Over the years, I have also tutored students from middle school through graduate programs, helping them not only understand the material but also gain confidence in applying it.
My approach is highly adaptable — I often use the Socratic method to encourage critical thinking, but I also design full-semester lesson plans or customized learning paths when a more structured approach is needed. Whether preparing for exams, improving academic writing, or mastering complex concepts, I tailor my methods to each student’s needs, ensuring that every session is focused, productive, and encouraging. I truly enjoy seeing my students succeed and look forward to helping you reach your goals.
