About me
For the last fifteen years, I have taught at nearly every level of education: junior high, high school, college, and as a private tutor. I have worked with nearly every level of student, from eight year olds with learning disabilities, to eighty-year-olds returning to school.
I have taught a wide variety of subjects, from English literature to speech to world mythology. Aside from these aspects, I bring a passion for teaching to any project or institution. I have a strong respect and admiration for the material; in addition, I love working with students and helping them to reach higher levels of academic accomplishment.
I look forward to working with you in the future!
