Anthony Desmond, RN Nursing
No reviews yet

Hello, my name is Anthony M. Desmond (AD in Short). I have been a nurse educator and tutor since 2015 to date. I have been a private tutor to tens of nursing students ever since across all levels - from those attaining CNAs to those pursuing DNPs. My passion is nurse education as a profession, a way of life, and my livelihood as well.

Currently, I am a nursing adjunct instructor, teaching evidence-based practices. I have learned so much in my career so far and I want to share my nursing and career knowledge, as well as study tips, with future nurses, nursing students, and current nurses.

At a personal level, I have managed to accomplish almost all the nursing achievements there are - CNA, LPN, RN, BSN, APRN, and I am currently working on the MSN. However, I am suited for teaching - as a passion.

My interest in nursing stems from my research background and a need to explore the ever-evolving world of nursing. Continuing education can pause a puzzling challenge for many nursing students and as a tutor, it gives me a sense of accomplishment to help attain that goal.

An all round-the-clock personalized tutoring at its best. And I believe my ratings speak for my record. As a nurse educator, non-maleficence and anonymity are two concepts I have upheld and will continue to. Discretion is of utmost importance when helping out online and I always adhere to that notion.

For any questions, kindly feel free to inquire.

It will be my pleasure to help.

Regards, Anthony.
