I believe that every child has the ability to be academically great given the right amount of individual time and guidance. An individual's potential has no limits and is always attainable if hard work is present. I believe in firm, but positive reinforcement as children learn the skills they need to prosper in school. One of the greatest feelings I have ever experienced is knowing that I have helped changed a child's life as she found her school work becoming easier and more enjoyable. I love having the ability to teach and mentor and create a turning point in the lives of children.

My passion for teaching is to ensure that each child reaches their full potential. I believe that every student has the ability to attend college. I have seen several students struggle with college admissions due to low test scores. I have seen numerous students overcome their testing fears and anxiety by practicing the skills and becoming more confident in their test taking abilities.

I have loved teaching and still keep in touch with many of my former students. In fact, I have taught many of their children! I seem to end up helping students with more than just their homework. I have always had a talent for understanding that not everyone "gets it the first time." I had much trouble with science myself. When I was responsible for hiring teachers, I usually wasn't a fan of those with 4.0 averages. I was afraid they wouldn't have the patience to answer the same question 10 times! I always try many methods (visual, auditory, tactile) until we find the right one for my students. I consider it my personal challenge to be able to get that "aha" out of a young person. During my 35-year of teaching, I spent 30 years teaching everything from Alg. 1, Geometry, Alg. 2, Trig., Statistics. I was also a math department chair for 5+ years. In that capacity I wrote c

I prefer a laid-back approach to learning, allowing students to understand at their own pace and make connection on their own. This does not mean, however, that I do not have high expectations for my students.

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. 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.
