I have taught virtually every subject at every level (K-12) over the course of 25 yrs. It has been my conviction to provide every student with the best education possible, regardless of the subject; thus, I have taken numerous post-graduate courses, and I possess a personal library of approximately 4,000 books. I am particularly interested in and concerned about teaching students to read. I have read extensively and done some successful tutoring in this area. I believe everyone can learn to read if given the proper phonics curriculum. All students love to learn if you can find the key to their style and desire. I enjoy the "art" of teaching, finding the student's "key", and watching the "lights" come on.

I have a passion for children and mathematics. I am a very positive person with a high level of energy. I believe children are capable of whatever they believe they can do and at times whatever you believe they can do. I set high goals for the students I work with and they work toward those goals. I am a patient person who enjoys working with children and sharing the love of learning. I want to be someone who a child can remember helped them learn.
