I believe children today are shortchanged by our educational system. Kids need people who hold them to high standards rather than minimums. They need to feel like people believe they are worthy of success and able to attain it rather than being given built-in excuses.

I have Accounting, Finance, and Economics degrees or designations of emphasis as part of my educational resume. Earning those degrees takes quite a bit of mathematical and analytical knowledge and skill. I went into these degree areas because they not only

I don’t have one specific teaching style that I apply to all students. I adapt my style to the student’s learning style. I believe in positive reinforcement; not negative feedback. I believe that all students can learn; they just need the necessary tools. They need to have a belief in themselves and a desire to work hard, and they can be successful. I believe in helping students understand how the material can be applied to their everyday lives and how they will benefit by obtaining this knowledge. I believe real-world examples help students understand the importance of what they are learning. I do not necessarily share my opinions on a specific subject; rather, I share the facts and help the student form their own opinions. I have a Master of Arts degree in Education and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Business Management. I have been an online adjunct professor and have numerous years of
