20 years of college teaching in philosophy, ethics, religious studies, bioethics, environmental ethics, and more! Successful track record of teaching and mentoring students of all ages at both the undergraduate and graduate level. I make difficult topics fun and understandable, and excel at helping students relate abstract content to their lived experience and chosen profession or major.

I also have extensive experience mentoring students through the thesis writing process from concept development to completion including creating timeline and benchmarks to ensure successful completion. I have helped dozens of students identify viable research topics, create a plan of research, and complete a robust finished thesis on time and with high honors.

I believe that every student deserves to have all the tools they need to succeed. My one on one tutoring methods begin with identifying the student's strengths and challenges with the course content and assignments, and working with each student to develop a success plan. Following this, the student and I will work together to help understand assigned texts, discussion prompts, and essay or exam assignments so that each student can do their best.
