Traditional Drawing and Painting Skills - Solid Foundation
I've been an artist since before I could even talk. Drawing is the core of my self expression as well as the basis for all good art making (in my opinion), regardless of the final form it may take. It has been said that you can't fix a bad drawing with paint - and I have seen this to be true no matter what kind of "paint" the creator chooses to apply! Good drawing skills can and should be learned by anyone who wishes to communicate in a visual medium. I take a very traditional approach to dra... Read more

Test Prep for Nursing Students!
I was a teacher for 12 years before becoming a nurse. I have 14 years of nursing experience and hold both BS and MS degrees in nursing with a masters concentration in nursing education. My method of teaching for the boards is more effective then the expensive programs that many students use. I look at the way the student learns and I teach effective methods to answer questions correctly. I have helped many students who have failed the NCLEX the first time pass after only 5-10 sessions. I ... Read more

Languages have always been fascinating subjects for me and my fascination led me to choose two languages as my college majors - English Literature and Arabic grammar. I also studied French for six years at Middle and High School and also attended Ndebele classes (an African language) after completing college. My love and passion for languages compels me to engage my students to the best of my ability so that they too may discover the beauty of language, the power of language and how central... Read more

Hey students/parents of Wyzant, I'm Stephen! I'm a recent graduate with an MS in physics (magna cum laude), and I also have a BS in physics with a minor in mathematics (summa cum laude), both from SUNY Albany. During my two years as a graduate student, I taught introductory physics labs to undergraduate students in both classroom and asynchronous/remote settings.
