About Zachary

I've always had a knack for helping out my peers with school work and as the eldest child, I usually had to help my younger siblings with theirs as well.

It would be no surprise then to learn that I later became a professionally paid tutor at the Center for Students with Disabilites at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater.

While there, I worked with everyone from high schoolers to adult university students on topics spanning from introductory English to neuropsychology!

What I enjoy the most is the satisfaction of seeing my students succeed and learn more about their subjects.

For me, education doesn't mean simply memorizing a dozen facts for a test; it means learning to understand the material on a personal level, even if the subject isn't "necessary for life".

Where most things start, I started in my family. Having younger siblings meant having to help them with homework.

After entering university, I helped students in my classes until a professor recommended I work at the university's Center for Students with Disabilities. I got hired there as a tutor in their fee-based paid services. I enjoyed it immensely and was sad to leave.

I spent two years at university as a psychology major focusing on counseling before switching to political science. In both fields, there is emphasis on being able to communicate ideas with others in respectful manners and with different communication styles.

Further, I was employed at University of Wisconsin-Whitewater in the Center for Students with Disabilities as a Project ASSIST tutor ((concealed information) Project ASSIST is supplementary and fee-based. It is not free tutoring and tutors hired by the service underwent a vigorous application and hiring process which included training on harrassment and safety.

As a tutor for them, I learned how to work with so many different kinds of individuals: your typical student who just needs a little bit of help, non-traditional adult students returning to continue their education, students with disabilities both physical and mental, and so many more.

About the lesson

Sharing contact information is always a good start. The first session is just a getting-to-know-each-other session. Both the student and I will bring our expectations for each other, such as being curteous, on time, etc. The first session will also be spent getting to know each other so to get on the "right foot" so to speak.

I try to keep each session right about an hour if we can but certainly can go over if it ends up being needed.

At the end of each session, the student and I will write down a summary of what we went over for the next session as well as to have a general record of things.

Typical university students who just needed a bit of help going through their class materials; non-traditional adult students returning to further their education; students with disabilities both physical and mental (such as ADHD, for example).
