To me, the most important thing is to be a good listener. I usually like to spend the first 5 to 10 minutes with a new student just chatting about their academic life and their study habits. That gives me a good sense of where they are, what areas they will likely be strong in and what areas where they will likely need further development. It also helps the student feel more comfortable. After earning a BA in Creative Writing and a BA in English at Oberlin Colege, I taught for a year as a substitute within the Cleveland Municipal School District.

As an instructor, I encourage my students to try something new and to make many mistakes so they can learn from them. I work hard with my students and try to get them to think outside of their current knowledge into new ideas and concepts. My style is extremely informal, with much practical discussions inserted to make learning understandable. My experience is primarily through study, trying, making mistakes, learning from my mistakes and trying again. I push my ability to learn and my level of knowledge in all that I do. Because of my focus in a broad range of subjects, I have been blessed with a wealth of knowledge and an appreciation of how hard it is to learn something new. I have worked in industry for over twenty years and have run my own consulting/contracting firm the last nine years.
