I have always aspired to adapt my teaching techniques to each student on an individual basis.

I teach in a manner appropriate to the learner. I can be very basic or I can teach at a higher level, depending on the individual. I am very patient and will go over topics until the person understands before moving forward. I have found that sometimes people do not understand basic concepts and that is why they are having trouble learning. I do not have a teaching degree however, I have 30 plus years experience in Finance. I worked at Eastman Kodak for 37 years. During that time, I have taught bookkeeping to new employees, credit and collection work, working with Dun & Bradstreet, how to determine credit worth, reconciliations and problem solving.
