Experience Summary
I am a college graduate with a Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science emphasis on Mathematics. I have been an educator most of my career. I began as a Substitute Teacher from Kindergarten to high school Physical Education you name it I taught it - this was not what I wanted to do at the time, but as I reminiscence now it was a pleasurable experience. Then I had the opportunity to teach computer basics to adults as well as K-12 children - now I felt like I was getting somewhere (I'm working in my field!). Then I found my teaching passion - teaching the GED course Oh Yeah! It was heart warming to see adults return to school take classes and then take and pass the GED Test. It was even a greater thrill to see the graduates in their caps and gowns at the graduation ceremony each June. Since then I am often saddened by the fact that since the mid 1990s many adult education programs have disappeared due to funding cuts. For this reason, I'm advertising my services on this website so that persons who are struggling to pass the GED Test can find someone (me) who will help them!
Teaching Style
I teach to the individual as well as to the group. In the classroom, I use the chalk/marker board, text and handout materials, and computers if available. Outside the classroom (libraries or other public meeting place, I bring my own instructional materials.
My Hobbies
I like to build models, to read at times, and to stay somewhat fit.
Other Comments
I prefer to meet at a public place as opposed to meeting the student in their home. Fees per person tutored must be paid during the session. I may be reached at (313)934-4505. Any interested clients should provide their telephone number.
