My name is Sandra Lugo, I worked at the university for 26 years where for my first 18 years I taught Calculus I and II, along with Static, Dynamic and Materials for Construction. I think my experience and my passion for teaching are my best introduction.

...Additionally, I hold a certificate of global awareness from my semester abroad in Nagoya, Japan.

...facilitate that. I majored in Biochemistry and Spanish at the University of Kansas and am currently working on an MD degree as a 3rd year medical student.

I also held a parent/student night which was a great success. I cover almost every style of music conceivable and part...

...approach as the be-all-end-all. In the contemporary era of worldwide digital dissemination of music and constant crossbreeding of styles, it's not so clear if developing linear proficiency in a single tradition (e.g. Jazz, Classical, Rock, Folk, etc.) is still a sufficient musical education. If studying a single style or tradition exclusively is all you're looking for, I'm probably not the best fit, but if you want to explore music more broadly and get a sense...

...running, playing outside, watching movies, playing card games and board games, and spending time with family and friends. I have had several enriching experiences that have led me to where I am.

I grew up in the Kansas City metro area and received a Bachelor's in English and a Master's in Accounting from the University of Kansas.

While completing my Master's degree, I tutored students accounting in a variety of accounting classes. I found these tutoring sessions to be enjoyable and very rewarding, and I look forward to tutoring more...

...Washburn University School of Law. My favorite moment came when I received a scholarship to complete a semester at Oxford University where I studied the philosophy of law and modern British history. I believe education is more than simply learning enough material to pass. Instead, I use my enthusiasm and knowledge to motivate students to not only get the best scores possible, but to learn real skills they will use throughout their education and in...

I am very effective at breaking down problems for the student so that...

My love for teaching is unparalleled, and I am truly committed to being a life long learner. As...

...best for the learner, not necessarily the tutor. When reading or developing a paper, I am always on the lookout for both concerns of the learner as well as issues that the learner may not be aware of; this way, I address both the concerns of the writer, who knows their thoughts and assignment requirements better than I do, while still noticing problems the writer may not have recognized, which ensures that the piece of...
