Daniel R.
Private tutor in Shippensburg, PA
Education
I went to York College for 3 years as a Chemistry major and earned a German Minor. I currently go to Shippensburg University as an Earth/Space Science Education major. I will graduate Spring 2010.
Experience
I have tutored as a Big Brother in Big Brothers Big Sisters for a total of 4 years. I am also currently tutoring as a member of Gamma Theta Upsilon; which is an international geography/earth science based honors society. I tutor at Scotland School for Veterans' Children in Scotland, PA. I have taken 12 Earth Science/Geography courses and have a 3.4 GPA within this field. Courses include Geology, Soils, Economic geography, World Geography, Oceanography, Geology of National Parks, Microbiology, and several Chemistry courses. As a result of being a Chemistry major I have taken beyond Calculus level math but am not confident enough to tutor in that subject. I am also an education major so I am taking classes based around effective teaching. I want to be a tutor because I feel it would be a very positive learning experience for myself as a future teacher. Also I want to help other students to learn to love learning by making it more fun and interesting. I enjoy teaching and tutoring greatly because of the satisfaction of seeing someone grasp a concept they've struggled with.
