For the college student who needs help with English Literature, Poetry or help preparing for the GRE exam, my methods will help improve your test scores.
My teaching philosophy is simple, "...a little learning is a dangerous thing, drink deep or taste not the Pierian spring..."What this A.Pope quote is simply saying is do not learn things halfway and think you know it all, act like you are knowledgeable, when in essence you have only superficial knowledge on any given subject.
Let me share my years of experience in teaching Reading, Writing (English Comp), English Lit., Poetry with you so that you can transition to your next level with confidence. Reading, Writing, Research skills are vital in almost every field of study. You owe yourself this foundation be it vocation or avocation.

In my spare time I enjoy travelling to places of historical and literary interest. I enjoy reading the latest bestsellers as long as they are not horror or sci-fi. My favorite sports are soccer(football) I am a big Messi and Ronaldo fan), followed by basketball. Once upon a time I was an avid birdwatcher, but now my bird watching is confined to my backyard bird feeders.
