Bio

Introduction:

I'm a huge movie buff and love listening to music every chance I get. I've worked in college and career readiness in some form or another ever since I was 16. I have taught as a seminar instructor, nonprofit teacher, career advisor, adjunct faculty member, among other roles. During that time, I have also earned my Master of Education with a specialty in Student Affairs.

Introduction:

I'm a huge movie buff and love listening to music every chance I get. I've worked in college and career readiness in some form or another ever since I was 16. I have taught as a seminar instructor, nonprofit teacher, career advisor, adjunct faculty member, among other roles. During that time, I have also earned my Master of Education with a specialty in Student Affairs.

Teaching Experience:

I have taught students in the past through both formal and informal positions. Most of my experience centers around education, particularly with college readiness programs. I currently work within Human Resources at one of the largest hospitals in the state consulting for various education programs, including internship and scholarship programs. Before transitioning to HR, I have served as a Career Consultant with assisting university students with their professional development. Additionally, I have served with nonprofit programs and the local school district working with students on college transition, financial literacy, and professional development. I have had the unique opportunity of gaining a large breadth of experience within different parts of the education sector in a relatively short time period.

Teaching Philosophy:

I have worked with students that have no idea where to begin and students that just need a little bit of direction. I have taught students who range from middle school to senior citizens, but through Wyzant, I mainly work online with high school and adult students. I do my best to teach students in a manner that is easy to understand and helps students get a good grasp on concepts that can help them now and in the future.

Note on Cheating:

I've gotten some inquiries relating to this in the past. If you ask me to take a graded assignment on your behalf or try to offer me extra money to cheat for you, I will decline. Don't even bother asking. Keep in mind that some schools can and will expel you.

I currently work at a public hospital as a Career Navigator / HR Consultant and previously served in higher education as a Career Consultant. Both roles had the primary purpose of assisting employees/students with their professional career development. Combined with my multiple prior experiences, I assist students with creating and improving their resumes and cover letters, practicing for potential interviews, as well as guidance in academic and career advising. I have sat on both sides of the hiring/interview table and thoroughly understand what the process is like from both the applicant and supervisor's point of view. Prior to my recent roles, I worked with the local school district and nonprofit programs centered around professionally developing students in resume writing, networking, professional branding, public speaking, and conducting one-on-one mock interviews. Together with almost 10 years of combined experience related to career development and your drive to improve, I am confident that we can help you reach that next step.

Professional, knowledgeable and understanding tutor.

He is a very professional, knowledgeable and understanding tutor/advisor. He recently helped me in rebuilding my resume on short notice. He was especially apt in tailoring his suggestions to my particular needs. He was patient, while making me feel confident for my interviews. He not only helped me to create what I believe is an effective resume, but he also gave me some excellent tips for my job interview. I would highly recommend him to someone who has been out of the job market for a little while. Jessy, Washington, D.C.
