About

Hi, my name is Jen and I am a full-time accountant and part-time professor who loves to work individually with students to help them succeed in their courses. My motto is that learning is "Mind Over Matter". I like to start with understanding what a student currently knows to build up their confidence and establish a base. Through the use of questioning techniques, students will actively be involved in their learning by providing responses to prompts as we walk through lessons personalized to students' individual needs. In lessons, I use real-life examples and applications to help students relate more to the materials. At the end of each lesson, I ask the student to summarize what we covered to test their understanding and continue to build up confidence focusing on the positive! I currently teach part-time as a professor in higher ed at an R1 research institute. I have privately tutored students for over 10 years in subjects such as Algebra, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, Statistics, Financial Accounting, Managerial Accounting, Finance, Microeconomics, and Macroeconomics. Having my B.A. in Business Administration and Accounting, M.S. in Accounting and Business Advisory, and certificates in Forensic Accounting and Internal Auditing, allows me to have the knowledge and experience necessary to work with higher ed and high school students. Working as a full-time accountant allows me to use real-life industry examples for student applications.
