About Vincent


Bio

Hello, Fellow Students! My name is Vince and I am what they call a "lifelong learner". During my undergraduate years, I enjoyed studying chemistry, physics, biology, and music. Along with my MS in Leadership, an MBA of Finance, and a Masters in Project Management (MPM), I have over 20 years of budget and financial experience in the military and government. I enjoy working with numbers and understanding the use of projections and the time-value of money. I have tutored students in high...

Hello, Fellow Students! My name is Vince and I am what they call a "lifelong learner". During my undergraduate years, I enjoyed studying chemistry, physics, biology, and music. Along with my MS in Leadership, an MBA of Finance, and a Masters in Project Management (MPM), I have over 20 years of budget and financial experience in the military and government. I enjoy working with numbers and understanding the use of projections and the time-value of money. I have tutored students in high school/college, assisted aspiring military members in studying for their ASVAB, and also volunteered to help students at our local church.

Math has always been one of my favorite subjects and I have a talent for understanding and solving problems. My desire is to share my aptitude with others in order to keep math topics relevant. I have completed courses at all levels, including college calculus (with differentials).

My undergraduate degree is in chemistry. My strongest area of concentration would be inorganic, as well as conducting chemistry labs and its overall importance to understanding the experimental process.

I have a minor in music and studied at the Cleveland Institute of Music during my high school and college years, to include music history and theory. I have played the piano for a number of years and desire to share my affinity with young, aspiring pianists.

I enjoy sharing my past experiences with young people and helping those who have a strong desire to learn - just like me! I'm looking forward to this opportunity to assist you or your student in obtaining academic goals.

Excellent - Just what we were looking for

Vincent is tutoring my daughter in physics 2 and calculus 2. He knows the material and more importantly, knows how to simplify it so that my daughter can visualize the solutions. He is very patient, kind and intelligent. -- Gracie's Mom

Gracie, 1 lesson with Vincent

Thank you!

As a mother to have your son tell you after only the 1st session mom he makes sense of things and he explains things with detail and in a way that I understand with a smile ; that says it . Not to mention his flexibility, and how he is eager to help my son in his classes. Thank you Mr. Vincent you are a blessing .

Better understanding of Chemistry

My son was having difficulties with a particular area in Chemistry and not getting much explanation at school. Vincent explained the concept in a way that my son got an A on his test. We are very satisfied.

Kerri, 6 lessons with Vincent

Lots of Chemistry Knowledge

Vincent has been very helpful with my son. Vincent breaks down the information so it is easier to understand. I am happy with the progress my son has made in so little time.

Lanette, 2 lessons with Vincent

He was very knowledgeable and patient.

He taught both of my daughters the concept of chemistry as well as him helping them with a test and a remediation packet. My daughters thought it was well worth their time.
