Experience
I earned my bachelor's degree in Education at Arizona State University, and I then went on to earn my master's degree in Education at Grand Canyon University. I have held a variety of teaching positions since graduating and also have extensive experience tutoring one-on-one. I strongly believe that the best way to learn is by interacting with others. In the formal school setting, students are often expected to learn by quietly reading information and are not often encouraged to collaborate with other students about the material. I am a big advocate of tutoring, because I think that discussing material with a tutor after learning it in class aids a student in comprehension and retention of the lessons.Aside from teaching in the classroom, I have been a high school Saturday school coordinator, and I also taught at-risk students at an online night school. During my free time, I enjoy spending time with my wife, and rooting for my favorite sports teams, which are the Phoenix Suns and Green Bay Packers. I also like to play video games. I tutor a variety of subjects, including math courses ranging from basic arithmetic to algebra 2. I also tutor a wide variety of history, reading, writing, and English courses, as well as business, computer science, public speaking, and many others.
