Experience
My interest in math, the sciences and problem solving spans as far back as my early childhood years. I always had a passion for math and the sciences, and found joy in tackling difficult math problems. I graduated from the University of Arkansas with a BS in Industrial Engineering and a minor in Mathematics. I am currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Industrial Engineering at Louisiana State University. I have been tutoring for over 4 years now, and it has been a thoroughly enjoyable experience. I have worked as a math tutor for the athletic department at the University of Arkansas and Louisiana State University. I collaborated with various students a semester to determine student needs and develop tutoring plans. I also improved academic performances and assessed students' progress throughout tutoring sessions. During my tutoring sessions, I allow my student's voice to be heard and use pauses to ensure that they don't tune out and lose interest. Most of my students have had different learning styles. The key is to determine what method works best for each student, and use the method that corresponds to each student’s learning preference. I also use real world examples to engage students in learning opportunities that allow them to use their creative and critical thinking skills to solve math problems. Prior to the end of each tutoring session, I ensure that the student has grasped the material discussed, and set obtainable objectives for our next session. I always give positive reinforcement and have had a great success with my students. I really enjoy helping people reach their goals, and it is deeply fulfilling to watch each of my students succeed. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions and I look forward to working with you!
