I draw on tips and tricks that teachers and professors of mine have used which really helped difficult concepts to "click" for me.

This includes reading, writing and speaking. In my spare time I like to be outside. I love sports, mainly baseball...

...new ideas, cupped and shielded in our hands like captured fireflies. When she left us, we were sad; but the light did not go out. She had written her indelible signature on our minds. I have had lots of teachers who taught me soon forgotten things; but only a few who created in me a new energy, a new direction. I suppose I am the unwritten manuscript of such a person. What deathless power lies...
