I am Donovan Wilson. A lover of mathematics, physics, chemistry, engineering, and philosophy. My tenure includes teaching and tutoring in almost every facet imaginable. I began as a college teacher's assistant in chemistry, after a prerequisite education course. Here I taught a group of 15-20 students. We thoroughly went through problem solving strategies, homework problems, theory, and algorithms in general chemistry. Then I became a SEEK tutor. This is where I honed my skills in conveying information with a more individually-customized approach. Here I taught one-on-one in courses such as: Algebra, Precalculus, Calculus, General Chemistry, and General Physics. Later I became a high school tutor/mentor for juvenile delinquents at Good Shepherd Services. While challenging, it was probably the most fulfilling. Swaying the minds of children who saw no way out of their impoverished neighborhoods, getting them to study and pass the regents, was invaluable. Eventually I became an education coordinator in elementary schools for Phipps Neighborhoods. Some responsibilities included lesson planning, teaching a class of 20+ students, and supervising teachers. I also did one-on-one tutoring for Varsity Tutors where I taught high school and college students. With courses ranging from algebra to Vector Analysis. Teaching is my passion and my calling in life. I hope to become a big asset for Join Tutors and further my skills as a teacher.
