I have been playing the Violin for 7 years now, and have done numerous performances. I have been playing since I was in 6th grade, and I have played not only locally, but on a regional and semi-national scale. My German is basic conversation level, however. I was only able to take two classes, but I am working on furthering that knowledge.

All people learn differently; therefore, it is helpful when a student is able to learn particular methods and study skills that will continue to benefit their future learning.

A Little Bit About Me...

I strongly believe that the success of education depends on how well it targets a student's learning style and values. Everyone can learn, but individual attention is a vital part of that. We don't all learn the same way or at the same speed, and these differences should be addressed in a positive and creative way to both convey the subject material and strengthen a student's ability to learn in the future.
I received my B.A. in English from Appalachian State University where I also received training in education. Afterward, I became an instructor at Richmond Community College, teaching basic reading and math to adults with learning disabilities as well as a course on PC literacy & business training. In addition to classroom instruction, I've had one-on-one experience tutoring university students in English and Learning Skills.
