Greetings. I am an English teacher of grades 7-12. I last taught in North Carolina in a small school where I had to prepare for a lot of different classes each day (six), but many of the classes were quite small (the smallest was six students). From this I learned to work hard in preparing for my classes and to pay careful attention to each individual in my class. I found that my favorite classes were those where I got to spend the most time one-on-one with students. My students and I had a l... Read more

I am passionate about government, and I enjoy helping others to better understand it. Our system of government, from Congress to city councils, affects everyone. In order to participate effectively as citizens, we have to understand both politics and history. Fortunately, all of us can do something to make our government more effective. Politics caught my attention when I was a student. I earned a Bachelor's degree in political science at Eastern Michigan University. Later, I attended gra... Read more

Spanish/psychology tutor

I grew up playing soccer and was very involved in the soccer community. When I wasn't practicing or playing, I spent a lot of time coaching younger kids. I assisted both boys and girls teams, and refereed for children of all ages. That's where I got my start working with children. I think starting out coaching in an athletic setting made for a perfect transition into teaching in an academic one. I've learned how to challenge my students, assess their individual needs and tailor my teaching to... Read more
