Shelley
Experienced, Patient, Naturally Gifted Teacher
For most of my life, for as far back as I can remember, I heard the words, "You should be a teacher!" This "suggestion" came from family, friends, teachers and mentors. I considered teaching as a profession in my early college days, however, it didn't take me long to realize that there were way too many rules in school. I have always been a "think outside the box," "color outside the lines" sort of person. While this approach got me a 4.0 in college I was not sure it would be rewarded in our ... Read more

Rick
Expert Trainer, Adobe Creative Suite, Microsoft Office and much more!
Good teaching cannot be reduced to technique. "Good teachers join self, subject, and students in the fabric of life because they teach from an integral and undivided self; they manifest in their own lives, and evoke in their students, a capacity for connectedness. They are able to weave a complex web of connections between themselves, their subjects, and their students, so that students can learn to weave a world for themselves." –Parker J. Palmer, founder and Senior Partner of the Center f... Read more
