Experience
I graduated from California Lutheran University with a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science and concentration in Health Professions. I am now studying for a master's in Kinesiology at University of Nevada Las Vegas, with focus on Biomechanics. I started as a tutor as a sixth grader when I devised an idea to tutor second- and third-graders to make money for a trip to the Baseball Hall of Fame. It worked, but much more importantly, I realized a passion for teaching others, and the talents to make it happen. I tutored for over eight years and applied my natural approach with kids to establish a successful tenure in guiding them along their academic paths. I always try to stress to students the importance of seeing the overall model of a subject or problem, rather than concentrate solely on memorizing solutions. I like to ensure they have a total understanding of material, and that makes learning much more enjoyable. I also worked as a camp counselor during semester breaks. My hobbies and interests include most anything related to sports, especially football, baseball, hockey, and golf, and I enjoy delving into the research of any subject.
