About Me

Experience Summary

I have five years of experience teaching in public and private schools. I have tutored privately for the past twelve years and homeschooled our two sons for twelve years. Between teaching and homeschooling, I worked for thirteen years as a sr. legal assistant for a major houston lawfirm. Even during that time I found myself in a training position. I guess it's true -- once a teacher, always a teacher!

Teaching Style

I guess I have a pretty laid back approach. I love working one-on-one with students so I can get to know them and how they learn best. I like to look beyond the immediate goal of improving grades. I try to incorporate some thinking/problem solving skills. We are so bombarded with information that I think it is important for students to learn how to learn -- school may end, but learning does not. I believe we should train our children to be life-long learners. I try to focus on a student's strengths while improving weaknesses to build a strong foundation.

My Hobbies

In my spare time I enjoy kayaking, reading, gardening, diy projects around the house, pets, and various outdoor activitis.
