When a student feels that he or she is staring up at an insurmountable wall, it is important to remember that, as a teacher, that you cannot go with them. You have to provide the strategies students need to surmount, not only the obstacle currently before them, but the one after that, and the ones they will encounter farther down the road. Students come to the classroom or to tutoring with the desire to grow in substantive ways and to learn and to become skilled at working with new concepts and to understand how those ideas connect with the greater world. I see myself as a guide, a coach, and as someone who works to teach students to “decode” complex ideas and texts— a person whose job it is to lessen frustration and to build confidence. I have been teaching English, composition, college research and writing, argument and persuasion, fiction writing and poetry at the university and comm

I love to see the "lightbulb" go off in my students' heads, especially when they didn't believe that they could do it. I never allow my students to use the word can't. I tell them they can, they might need assistance, but they can do it. No excuses! After graduating from Syracuse University with a BSW and a minor in Psychology.
