Microsoft Excel,

Microsoft Excel

While as a graduate student, I used Microsoft Excel to prepare many spreadsheets for presentations. I am familiar with Excel 2003 through 2010. I have had to chart/graph sources of data and create many formulas within cells to find relationships with the data found. I have also assisted others with understanding the program further, so tutoring this topic is familiar to me.
Microsoft Word

As a graduate student, I used Microsoft Word on multiple occasions for research papers as well as for document writing as a student organization leader. I am familiar with Word 2003 through 2010.

Grammar,

Grammar

Proper grammar is skill that I believe should be acquired by everyone. Communication is universal and as such, accuracy and clarity must also accompany it. This is what I stressed growing up in my English courses both in grade school and later in my college courses. I hope to be able to pass along this importance to whomever wishes to improve their own skills.

Chemistry with Chris

We have tried a couple advanced chem tutors for my son. He had not found one that he felt worked for him - until he met Chris. Although, Reece has only worked with Chris once so far, he was enthusiastic about Chris' teaching ability but it also seemed he tried his best to relate to my son to improve their working relationship. I will not hesitate to use Chris again when my son needs more help. Hire him. He is very professional and you will be pleased.
