Bio

I have been an academic for about 11 years, completing university degrees in various fields as broad as geology, biology, philosophy, and theology. In addition, I have substitute taught high school science and led both a high school youth group and adult Bible Studies. My passion is knowledge, learning, and education. I will bring an attitude towards those I tutor which indicates that I believe they can learn the material not just for its own sake, but for daily life. I also believe that...

I have been an academic for about 11 years, completing university degrees in various fields as broad as geology, biology, philosophy, and theology. In addition, I have substitute taught high school science and led both a high school youth group and adult Bible Studies. My passion is knowledge, learning, and education. I will bring an attitude towards those I tutor which indicates that I believe they can learn the material not just for its own sake, but for daily life. I also believe that younger people learn more from those whom they can see as role models, and so I my methods are to be personable, but not too buddy-buddy. Firm, but not intolerant or unfeeling.

My methods are fairly straight-forward and simple. I usually begin with the textbook or material given to the student and try to find out what is expected of him/her and what they have done on their own before the meeting. From there, I can be very flexible. I can start by going through the book, or even by talking about the key concepts with examples from everyday life. I can even, given the circumstance, recommend a movie or book (age appropriate) that might illustrate well the concept we are discussing.

I look forward to helping you or your children succeed in life through the wonder of learning, including helping them acquire the tools and habits to life-long learners no matter what they end up doing.

Greek

I have a background in Koine Greek specifically and have not only applied it myself in several New Testament classes, but have also tutored several students in Seminary who were having trouble understanding the language. My typical approach to tutoring Greek is identical to Latin with the creation of vocabulary and declension cards. On top of academic papers where the use of Greek is assumed, I have also tutored and helped others in various classes dealing with the use of Greek as a prerequisite.
