Hi, I'm Duane! I graduated from Yale with a degree in Environmental Studies, after which I accepted the Yale-China Fellowship and taught 10th grade English for three years in central China.

So, when I came back to the United States I took a middle school science teaching position, where I've been for the past three years. As a teacher and a coach, I often get described as... Read more

That causes sloppy “bookkeepingâ€, then losing track of if you’re right (the student’s job). I’ve been teaching/tutoring for eigh... Read more
