I'm an adjunct geology professor at Mesa Community College. I have a Master's degree in geology from Arizona State University. My Bachelor's degree is in both biology and geology, from the University of Western Ontario. In addition to my experience teaching both lectures and labs at the community college level, I have tutoring experience in science, math, and English. My educational background has given me excellent language and grammar skills, as well as a strong foundation in math and science. I love being able to help a student understand a subject with which they have previously struggled. I have tutored students in every science except physics and most maths and I am comfortable with all grade levels, from elementary school to college. My teaching style varies according to the individual needs of the student. My main goal is to help the student become enthusiastic about the specific subject or activity, as I believe that is the best motivator there is. I am very flexible, and will tailor the curriculum and evaluation methods based on discussions with the student. I think that tutoring can be a mutual rewarding experience, and I look forward to helping students excel!
