Geology is not Rocket Science
I was born to be a geologist. As a kid I was fascinated by natural disasters. When it came time to pick a major geology was the natural choice. After earning a BS in geology at Boston College and an MS in geology at Syracuse University, I have been a professional geologist for over 20 years. At BC I did a senior thesis in the neutron activation analytical laboratory. While a graduate student at Syracuse I also attended the University of Kansas Field Geology School and was both a teaching... Read more

Stephen
Experienced art teacher who focuses on skill and technique
We make art because it lets us communicate the things inside us that language has difficulty describing. Sometimes it is deep love for a parent, spouse, friend, or child. Sometimes it is wonder and awe at the beauty of nature and the world around us. At other times it is a suffering inside that is hard to deal with. For all these reasons to describe our emotions, often when we start creating something, our hands are unable to translate what our minds can picture. They might be able to creat... Read more

During college, I served as an elementary school tutor at Waddell Elementary for 2 years. I tutored two students in reading, math, spelling, vocabulary and science.

Writing & Literary Studies
I'm a huge fan of the writing process and an even bigger fan of working with students one-on-one. I'm highly empathetic and I live for sitting down with a student, learning about their writing project (whatever it may be), and helping them formulate their ideas into cohesive written expression, step-by-step. I worked as a Writing Center Consultant at my alma mater, where I assisted students with any and all kinds of writing assignments. I especially love brainstorming and editing for gramma... Read more
