I have spent 6 years teaching university-level German language courses and reading comprehension & writing courses. Before this, I spent 2 years as a volunteer instructor of bi-weekly English language classes in Romania and Moldova. In both contexts, I have taught interactive courses for students of various ages, educational levels, and cultural backgrounds. From my background in Linguistics, I understand how language 'works'. I have a quiver full of tools to use in explaining the linguistic nuances, which I use to explain the relationship between thought and language. Additionally, I have been involved in various research projects on language usage, language change, and language learning. I approach instruction from the view that “teach[ing] a man to fish, will feed him for a lifetime”. I am committed to building on what my students bring with them, using this as a fulcrum on which to h

I take the approach that guided problem solving provides the optimal learning experience, as most students learn best by doing with explanation provided all along the way. I tailor this approach to the learning style of the student, whether it is auditory, visual, or kinesthetic. I am very friendly and patient. I believe in adding value to the education through application of the learned skills to real world problems of interest to the student. This prevents boredom and allows them to be engaged in the process. More than 5 years experience tutoring High School and College students in quantitative reasoning and technical skills. Sound understanding of theoretical and applied mathematical and statistical models heavily used in commerce, industry, government, scientific, non-profit, and academic settings. Working knowledge of computer programming, data modeling, and effective analy

In 1983 I completed an ESL teacher training course at Stanford University, and subsequently was hired to teach English in Japan. I made heavy use of the prevailing ideas in ESL teaching at that time. More recently, in designing teaching materials for middle and high school students, I have attempted to map my lessons to the cognitive skills identified in Bloom's taxonomy. Over the past decade I have also prepared science curriculum materials (middle and high school) for Glencoe McGraw-Hill, Gale Thomson, Pearson and John Wiley. I am the author of The Globalization of Trade, an introduction to the economics of globalization for young readers (published in 2004). Most of my curriculum writing has been science-related, but I have also prepared articles in other areas for Gale Thomson's reference books. My academic training was in the physical sciences (physics, chemistry). I earned a
