The Tutorjohn cast

John Forsyth: AKA Tutorjohn

I started tutoring math and physics right after graduation from A&M in the Fall of 1999. I started with small classes that met in either the library at A&M, or out of a spare bedroom in my house. I have many years experience with the teachers at A&M as well as with different teaching methods. I have worked primarily with small groups, but as my business has expanded I am now able to work with larger groups just as well. Weekly class sizes are restricted so that the quality of my service does not decrease, as class size increases.

As for my education, I have two degrees, one in Physics, and one in Civil Engineering. I was 2 classes short of a Math degree when A&M told me to get out. (I was trying to be a professional student.) I have close to 250 hours on my transcript with a wide variety of subjects.

My Family Motto: Instaurator Ruinae (repairer of ruin).
Classes Currently taught: Math: 141,142,166, Stat: 301,303, WTC 1324, Blinn Physics 1401
Classes can teach: Math 102,103,131,141,142,166,150,151,152,365,366, Physics 201,202, Stat 201,211,212,301,302,303 Info 303,305, Epsy 435, Ag Econ 317, and their equivalents at other schools.

Jeremy Pruitt

"Jeremy grew up in the small community of Cushing located outside of Nacogdoches, TX. After high school, he attended Stephen F. Austin State University and graduated in May 2004 with a B.S. in Physics/Pre-Engineering, with a minor in Astronomy. Jeremy then started graduate school in the Fall of 2004 at the University of Texas at Tyler. After what seemed a lifetime in the graduate service of a professor, he graduated with a Master of Engineering degree, with an emphasis on Mechanical Engineering in the Spring of 2006. Jeremy will start working on his PhD in the Dwight Look College of Engineering at TAMU in either Mechanical or Biomedical Engineering in the Fall of 2006, he has not decided on which as of yet. Jeremy claims that going to Texas A&M was the best decision he has ever made."

Andy Wagers

Andy Wagers grew up in Wheaton, IL just outside the city of Chicago. After graduating from high school he attended Berea College in Berea, KY and recieved a BA in Physics in 2002. After sometime off from school he packed all his worldly possions into his 1989 Ford Taurus and moved to Texas to work on his MS in Physics at Stephen F. Austin State University in Nacogdoches. In the Fall of 2004 he was recruited by the Physics Department at Texas A&M to be one of the first graduate students in the new Astronomy program (he got here before the astronomy professors). He is currently pursueing a Ph.D in Physics and is finally, after 9 years of higher education, studying his passion, astronomy.

As a freshman, Andy, was already teaching astronomy labs to his fellow classmates. As a graduate student at SFASU, he tutored many of the undergraduate physics students that would wander into his office (he met his wife, Kari, this way). He also worked as a part-time high school physics and math teacher at Regents Academy in Nacogdoches, TX. Since moving to the B/CS area he has tutored several students recommended by their professor at Blinn before joining Tutorjohn. Last spring, Andy, was even a part time professor at Blinn College in the Physics department teaching 1401.
Classes Currently taught: None
Classes can teach: PHYS 201, 202, 208, 218, 219

Austin State University where she received a degree in Chemistry with a minor in Biology in 2005. She has been tutoring Chemistry since 2001 at the High School, Junior College, Community College and University levels.
I mainly provide private tutoring since students get the most out of the one on one time. If there is interest in group tutoring (two or more that would like to meet together) arrangements can be made and pricing is less per student.
It is best to contact me by phone. Please do not contact me by email.
Classes Currently taught: None

The courses we offer tutoring for are subjects that you can't cram for. That is why I provide weekly sessions to augment your normal studies. If I can help you to really learn the subject, you will be much better prepared for the variety of questions that may be asked on a test. Not only will this help you get a better grade in the class you are currently taking, but it will also help the one after that.

This is what a few satisfied customers had to say:
"John is a genius when it comes to math and physics, but that's not even the best part. John knows how to take difficult concepts and break them down into the simplest terms to help anyone understand. He also is very perceptive and can sense how fast or slow he should go with the material for a student." -- Lisa Dingwall
"TUTOR JOHN is an awesome tutor. He makes complicated concepts a piece of cake! He makes up funny stories and ways to remember the rules of math. I took MATH 141 and MATH 142 with him and I not only passed....i made B's. He knows all of his students, their strengths and weaknesses, and their teachers. He know what will be harder to understand and makes it easy. TUTOR JOHN IS THE BEST!!!!!" -- Carley McAnally
