I am a graduate of St. Leo University. I received my B.A and M.S. degrees in Criminal Justice. I also obtained my associate degree from Berean Institute. I majored in Business Administration with an emphasis in accounting. I am a PhD candidate at Walden University with a major in Public Policy with an emphasis in Criminal Justice. Besides my education, I was a substitute teacher for grades Pre- K through high school, in Chesapeake Virginia. I also did some traveling to the U.S. Virgin Islands where I taught SAT Prep Math to 9-12, GED Prep classes to male inmates as well as taught basic Belly dancing. I also tutored private clients in high school and remedial college courses. I am most passionate about seeing students' excitement when improving on reading, math, English as well as writing. I also am passionate about doing Storytime, when I am online. To get responses from listeners wanting to know when I will do another one is really exciting. This sets a perfect foundation for a lifelong learner. I have many hobbies that I am passionate about and share with others. I am a gardener who studies and grows different herbs and vegetables, that I use in making jams, salsa, salves, natural remedies, and juices. I have studied and do a variety of dances. I used to be a former Zumba Instructor. I am a belly dancer as well as dance with two Caribbean dance troupes in Virginia and the Virgin Islands. My students and I have fun while studying subjects that have been a challenge. Suggesting a variety of ways to teach is the key. It also teaches them to have a better education necessary for an improved quality of life. I also understand and appreciate different learning methods, in person or online, because I was a student who experienced both. In my spare time, I'm a writer in which I wrote and published five books, I enjoy reading, traveling, dancing, gardening, researching diverse ways of natural living, cooking, and doing crafts. I also am an avid stargazer who enjoys exploring the Universe.

I am a dedicated educator committed to providing students with a profound understanding of the subjects they are learning. My teaching philosophy emphasizes not only retaining information but grasping it at a fundamental level for practical, everyday application. With over 20 years of coaching experience, my journey began as an Assistant Football Coach and Strength and Conditioning Coach at two universities. I transitioned to a role as a training and manager at various health clubs, bringing a wealth of hands-on experience to my instructional approach. Additionally, I've had the privilege of teaching in continuing education at a local community college. A graduate of Methodist University with a BS in Sports Management and a minor in business, I furthered my education with a Master of Arts in Religion and a concentration in Mental Health Counseling from Gordon Conwell Theological Seminary in South Hamilton, MA. Currently serving as a tutor for personal training certification exams and a range of subjects, including high school English, business, marketing, basic computer skills, religion, exercise physiology, and video editing. I take pride in being the first lead instructor of a National Academy of Sports Medicine preparation course at the community college level, achieving a pass rate of 100% for three consecutive years and maintaining a pass rate of over 90% thereafter. Having left instruction to establish my fitness facility, I continue to work with interns, blending my passion for teaching with hands-on experience. My teaching style is both casual and structured, encouraging students to engage freely while gaining confidence in their chosen professions. In addition to my extensive teaching background, I bring valuable management experience and entrepreneurial success to the table. I have owned multiple businesses, further enhancing my ability to guide students toward practical applications in their respective fields.

I am a graduate of University of Houston with a focus on Kinesiology. I have been teaching NASM courses at Lonestar College Cy-Fair in Houston, Texas for 2 years. I have truly enjoyed teaching all ages how to train clients in a safe and rewarding manner while adhering to the NASM philosophy exercise. I believe that learning the NASM approach is just the beginning to becoming a successful Trainor/Coach, one must continue to learn and expand your base knowledge as science evolves and helps us understand our bodies as we age. I believe that as you learn the NASM model you will not only build on your existing knowledge but also become a more corrective exercise professional and have an impact on young and older clients.

I have attained several educational milestones in my life (see below) and have taught in the fields of music, personal training, nutrition, and mindset.

I am a university and high school science teacher, specializing in public health, fitness, and biology. I hold undergraduate degrees in Biology (B.S.) and Anthropology (B.A.) and my CPT certification through NASM. While I have been tutoring a wide range of subjects for over twenty years, I most enjoy teaching any subject involving the human body. I have always been amazed with its design, and I love sharing this enthusiasm with students! I believe that learning is a lifelong process and it's critical that we can all learn strategies and methods to best succeed and thereby continue discovering who we are as we study throughout life. I hold many professional certifications and have completed over ten years of graduate education and specializations after college, including my NASM personal training certification. One of my favorite endeavors is teaching this to others through a national Personal Training certification course on the college level (W.I.T.S.). I have vast experiences working with many common issues and struggles, and I love working in partnership to find "the key" for each student to optimize success. For this reason, I am very committed to teaching concepts in a variety of ways, especially focusing on analogies using everyday life experiences and visual images. I also firmly believe in keeping relationship- and confidence-building central to our partnership. I always strive to create an environment where the student feels comfortable to openly share their goals and struggles. In my free time, I love to run, swim, and read.

As a dedicated educator with a Master's degree in Nutrition, Dietetics, and Sensory Sciences from Kansas State University, I bring over two years of tutoring experience, specializing in preparing students for the MBLEX and NASM exams. My teaching philosophy centers on fostering a supportive learning environment where students feel empowered to ask questions and explore concepts. I am passionate about helping my students succeed, guiding them not just to pass their exams, but to understand the material thoroughly and apply it in real-world scenarios. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy reading about nutrition trends and staying active, which allows me to connect with my students on various levels and inspire them in their own journeys.

I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old electronics, playing Pokemon, or picking at my guitar.

I am a recent graduate from a masters program in biostatistics at Columbia University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in biological sciences, with a focus in neurobiology at Northwestern University. In August, I will be starting a doctoral program in biostatistics at NYU. I was a teaching assistant at Columbia University in my department and also have tutored graduate students and undergraduates privately as well. My primary areas of tutoring are math and statistics coursework in addition to math sections on standardized tests such as the GRE and GMAT. I am very passionate about helping students feel more confident and excited about math. In my spare time, I enjoy running, playing piano, and spending time with friends and family.

I am a graduate of Wesleyan University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with High Honors. With eight years of experience working in education, I've tutored students in math, science, history, and English, as well as helped students prepare for standardized tests. I've guided adults towards passing the US Citizenship Exam and taught English in India, where I lived for six months. Whenever I work with a student I personalize the lessons to fit their particular learning style, since I know every student is unique and having the right fit can make all the difference in making learning fun and effective. My strengths are tutoring the social sciences and humanities, as well as making math and standardized tests approachable to students that normally don't like those subjects. In my spare time I like traveling, spending time in the outdoors (climbing & backpacking), meditation, and playing soccer. Next fall I will be beginning my PhD in Education at Harvard University.
