Hello! I’m Chris (surprise!), and I’d like to help YOU with learning Math, Statistics, Accounting, and/or Microsoft Excel! (see the "Subjects I Tutor" section for more info) 

I’ve been tutoring professionally (and virtually) since May of 2022.

​

I attended OU (Boomer!) and obtained a B.A. in Psychology in 2002; a Masters Graduate Certificate in Management Information Systems (MIS), and a Masters in Accountancy, both in 2015. I have had a lifelong love and fascination with mathematics and numbers.

​

I worked for a Big 4 Accounting firm for 3 years, and for the State of Oklahoma Department of Human Services (OKDHS) for 11 years before that. While in college, I took courses including Intro and Advanced Statistics (I was also a T.A. for Intro Stats for 1 semester), College Algebra and Linear Algebra, Managerial Economics, and various excel and database-related classes for my MIS certificate.

​

I spent most of my OKDHS career working with Aged, Blind, and Disabled clients (“ABD”), many of whom required additional assistance with completing applications and such. As a tutor, I have worked with a variety of students: older adults learning Excel or basic computer skills; students whose first language is not English; and many students with learning difficulties (ADHD, Autism, Dyslexia, Dyscalculia, etc.). I pride myself on my ability to adapt my instruction to a particular student’s needs to ensure they get the most out of each session.

​

I use a modified Socratic method when I’m working with a client: I use probing questions to help a student get to an answer by peeling back until we reach a layer where their understanding is already strong and build forward from there. If a student does not know the answer to any question, I prefer that they say so! The only way we can smooth out any concepts where understanding may be lacking is to identify those areas.

​

If you know someone struggling with any of these topics, I would love to help and share my knowledge and experience. Please feel free to message me with any questions you may have. Thank you!
