Linda H.
Private tutor in Birmingham, AL
Education
I have a BS in Chemical Engineering from Auburn University, an MS in Chemistry Education from the University of Montevallo, and extensive classwork completed for an MS in Electrical Engineering from the University of Alabama.
Experience
I worked 8 years as a Chemical Engineer, and 4 years as a Control Systems Engineer on missile defense. I stayed home for 12 years to raise my children, then returned and got my masters to teach Chemistry. I taught high school Chemistry for 3 years I then stayed home for 4 years to home school my youngest son for his last 4 years of High school. He has Asperger's Syndrome and home school was the best choice for him. He made a 30 on the ACT and won a full scholarship to college. I have tutored numerous students over the years in math, algebra, and chemistry. I have worked for over 10 years helping students improve their ACT scores in all areas of the exam. I currently tutor chemistry part time online with tutor.com. I pride myself in being able to adjust my teaching methods to maximize learning for each student according to their needs. I have tutored many students with learning disabilities - high school and college. Helping them complete homework, studying notes along side them, prepping for tests - are just a few of the ways I have assisted students with dyslexia, ADHD, and Asperger's Syndrome.
