Instructed, tutored and mentored incoming freshman in the Bridge Program and supervise tutors in the tutoring program (ACE) for all KSU students. The Bridge Program was offered during the summer as an introduction program for incoming freshman that struggle academically with reading and math. I also instructed students in mathematics ranging from business math to trigonometry (included implementing differentiated lessons for success purposes). I also conducted a presentation based on academic success and student involvement on and off campus.

  • Staff and student safety was secure
  • Student understanding of material and content was enhanced
  • Student participation in tutoring service increased over time
  • Student engagement was consistent and positive at all times
  • Student and staff relations were very productive through two one-way communication

Notable Achievements:

  • Graduation rates increased
  • Retention rates increase
