I graduated from FSCJ with an Associate's in Arts, and I am now enrolled at the University of North Florida working on my Bachelor's. I believe that the key to successfully teaching students is to find how they learn, to learn how they think. Once you understand how they think you can gear your teaching to their specific learning abilities. To think how your student thinks is the best advantage one can ever have while teaching.

I have three years of experience teaching a variety of high school math, science and college prep classes in Texas. I also had the privilege of developing and coaching the girls soccer program! I have an additional 4 years of tutoring and teacher assistant experience outside my role as a teacher, specifically working in curriculum design for the ACT, SAT and calculus-based Physics classes. I have my Texas Teacher's Certification, and received my Bachelor of Science in Physics at the University of West Florida. I am currently working towards a Masters in Applied Mathematics, while studying for the actuary professional exams.My absolute favorite subject to tutor is Physics; not only because my back ground is strongest in this subject, but also because the way to tutor these concepts is simply the most fun. Most students struggle with understanding the connections between the necessary math and the physical consequences. The best way to reinforce the math and the science together is to get up and do it. Scientists, of course, spend a lot of time reading and writing; but the true understanding of a topic comes when you can both experience the consequences of the concept and explain them to another person. Students will spend a lot of time in my physics sessions sliding, spinning, dropping, rolling, skidding, pushing and pulling themselves, non-breakable objects or even the occasional family member. Don't worry, I leave the family pets out of it! Although those of you online may see my cat in a few demonstrations.My tutoring style looks more like a coach and less like a teacher. I believe that students must be guided towards reflecting on their own learning, communicating their own areas of need, and developing study skills and classroom habits that work best for them. It is more important to me, as a tutor, to set the student up for continued success with the long term goal of them being independent learners. This coaching method allows me to be flexible within the constraints of the goals and the curriculum to better respond to your student's actual need.

9+ Years Tutoring

I am a former high schools physics teacher and current graduate student in mathematics.I've had experience tutoring math subjects since my undergraduate days-- in a distant epoch-- and was lucky enough to teach the first AP Physics course at a high school in Florida.I believe that my approach to teaching mathematics and physics was borne out of an initial dislike and fear of the subject in middle school. Far from the 'arm-raised-straight-up' type, I was perfectly comfortable dreading being called on and relying on assured knowledge that I'd never needing such useless facts again.However, a curveball was thrown my way after reaching the 10th grade where I uncovered a nascent interest in physics. After reading A Brief History of Time and realizing that math and physics were so inextricably linked, I decided that I wanted to learn more about the field that Gauss called, "the queen of the sciences."I believe that if I an learn it, my students can learn it. It may be hackneyed, but I really do believe in the old adage that genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. In my experience, what often seems to the student a lack of ability to understand math or physics conceptually stems from easily taught (but not easily practiced) study skills.

I spent 8 years living in Japan, where I gained fluency and earned my teaching license while working in Japanese public elementary schools.

During my tenure at a private school in Seattle I completely rewrote the Japanese curriculum to align with new textbooks (Tobira series) utilizing modern language learning techniques. I never expected to teach Japanese after returning to the US, but have discovered not only do my ESOL teaching skills perfectly apply to JP teaching, but it's a ton of fun. I also have extensive experience with special needs students. I was the deputy campus manager for a private, special needs school in Seattle that focused on 1:1 education for high school credit retrieval.

The wise philosopher Jack Sparrow once said "the only rules that really matter are these: what a man can do and what a man can't do." My passion is helping learners quickly identify what they CAN do (we all have something!) and what they CAN'T do so that they can skim through their strong areas, prioritize their weaker areas, and get the most bang for their buck of studying time. Whether the need is a last-minute "Hail Mary" for an upcoming test or a long-term study plan to optimize the odds of college admittance, I'm here to help! I graduated as valedictorian from high school and Magna Cum Laude from the University of West Florida with my bachelor's degree in Middle School Math/Science Education. I'm currently working toward my master's in Instructional Design, and I enjoy sewing, creating multimedia projects, and hiking when I'm not helping students succeed. I first began an illustrious career of tutoring when I was 15, teaching piano lessons to students aging from toddler to adult. I have since taught math and science professionally in elementary, middle school, and high school. I have tutored a variety of other subjects (English grammar, literature, writing, reading comprehension, music, history, government, college entrance exams) and standardized tests (CLEP, AP, SAT, ACT, etc). My absolute favorites to teach are math, English, and CLEP to help students be competitive for quality colleges. While mastering the subject area or test content is important, I believe the best that I have to offer is training how to study and learn with passion and purpose. I excel at quickly determining what the mastery expectations are, where the learner is falling short or needs to improve, what background learning might be needed, and how to quickly achieve mastery. Some of my best successes have been my children. Under my instruction, they excelled on their college admissions tests and CLEP tests graduating with honors and scholarships while also cutting up to 2 years off of their college degree plans. One of my children pursued and obtained a nomination to the United States Military Academy at West Point and graduated 5th in her class. My goal with every student I work with is to inspire a lifelong learner who accomplishes big dreams.

Frequently Asked Questions

Tutors who attended or graduated from UWF have direct experience with the university's curriculum, teaching style, and academic expectations. They've successfully navigated the same courses and challenges you're facing, giving them practical insight into what it takes to succeed. This firsthand experience allows them to anticipate common stumbling blocks and explain concepts in ways that align with how UWF professors teach.

Alumni tutors understand UWF's specific academic culture, course structures, and professor expectations in ways that generic tutors cannot. They can share study strategies that worked for them in your exact classes, help you navigate university resources, and provide context about how different subjects connect within UWF's programs. This personalized perspective accelerates your learning and helps you feel more confident in your coursework.

Varsity Tutors connects students with UWF alumni across a wide range of subjects, including core courses in business, engineering, sciences, liberal arts, and education programs. Whether you need help with foundational math and writing or advanced coursework in your major, you can find a tutor with direct experience in that field. Many tutors have completed the exact courses you're taking, so they know the material inside and out.

Your first session is a chance to connect with your tutor, discuss your specific challenges, and establish a personalized learning plan. Your tutor will ask about your current grade, learning goals, and any particular topics causing difficulty. From there, you'll work together to build a strategy tailored to your needs and UWF's academic expectations.

Yes. Varsity Tutors works to match you with tutors who have completed your major or taken your specific courses at UWF. Whether you're in business, engineering, nursing, education, or another program, an alumni tutor can provide targeted help that reflects how the material is taught at your university. This targeted approach is much more effective than working with someone unfamiliar with UWF's curriculum.

Personalized 1-on-1 instruction is one of the most effective ways to improve academic performance. Research shows that students who receive tailored tutoring often see measurable grade improvements because the tutor adapts to your learning style and focuses on your specific gaps. A UWF tutor can help you master difficult concepts, prepare effectively for exams, and develop study habits that stick.

Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who offer flexible scheduling to fit your busy student life. You can work around your class schedule, work commitments, and other responsibilities. Most tutoring can be arranged to meet your needs, whether you prefer regular weekly sessions or intensive help before exams.

Start by telling us about your academic needs—your major, the courses you need help with, and your goals. Varsity Tutors will connect you with a qualified tutor who has UWF experience and expertise in your subject area. You'll then work together to schedule your first session and begin your personalized tutoring journey.
