History is one of our greatest learning tools. We can see the mistakes of the past and guide future generations to avoid making those mistakes again. Took three years of college courses on Psychology at Ashford University, trained with a Computer Troubleshooting Specialist for four years, have two books of my own written word poetry published. In my time at Ashford I picked plenty of shareable skills, study skills, time management, and using my keyboard to it's fullest potential to meet deadlines. While training with the Computer Troubleshooter, I learned more about how to use software and typing/keyboard shortcuts to utilize computers to their full potential. I also learned how to use properly install hardware and to build a desktop, and where to find reasonably priced keyboard components. I go with the styles that fit the student. I generally use the first couple of visits to assess wh

History was my minor in college and I have remained an avid student of American and World History. Because I was a college and university professor for decades, I saw the value of incorporating history into the study of literature. They are mutually illuminating fields. My extensive European, Central American and Caribbean travels have enriched my knowledge of history. I am a serious, dedicated professional educator who is also hip, easygoing and fun. I enjoy teaching and I will make sure you enjoy learning from me. I have been a college and university professor of English for over three decades. I have also taught many history and humanities courses. I have taught all ages, from junior high students through traditional college-ages students to adults and seniors. I make learning fun and easy. I enjoy working with students of many nationalities, interests and cultures.

I have a long and varied background in the educational field. I earned a master’s degree in elementary education in 1970 and a second master’s degree in adult education in 2007. I taught elementary grades in the New York City school system for six years. I was a college administrator for 20 years at for-profit, career colleges. Throughout that time, my main concern was student learning, comprehension and implementation. The specialization for my second master’s degree in Adult Education was Teaching and Learning. The focus was learning styles. Therefore, I am well aware of the different learning styles that each individual utilizes to learn and comprehend. Learning is facilitated when that specific learning style is identified and then implemented. Every student has the ability to learn. However, we all learn differently and at different rates. Once the learning style is identified and

I believe that knowledge is one of the most important facet in developing a successful life. One of my favorite joys is to see another person learn something new and to make use of that knowledge in his life or career. Without education one is severely handicapped in the development of becoming a complete person. Education is the key. Realizing that people are all different, I am flexible in my teaching methods, slowing down or speeding up my delivery and/or the complexity of the material with each student. I believe that course development should be goal-oriented so that when the student progresses to successful completion of that goal, there is a sense of achievement. I served 20 years in the Navy, and during that period earned my BS Degree. Many of my assignments were in development and institution of training programs including Equal Opportunity/Race Relations, Leadership and Managem
