John: Broomfield tutor
Certified Tutor
I'm a strong tutor who loves learning and teaching. I bring high energy, patience, creativity, and dedication to my lessons. I often build slide shows with compelling visuals and video to bring my lessons to life. I love to see my students succeed.
I primarily teach English, writing, history, and French.
I have a bachelor's degree in political science from Yale University and a master's degree from University of Maryland School of Public Policy.
I've worked in communications for the federal government for ten years and I've written a biography of Florida governor and U.S. senator Lawton Chiles, Walkin' Lawton. I also publish poetry, op-eds, and memoir.
Mark Twain: "The difference between the almost right word and the right word is really a large matter'tis the difference between the lightning bug and the lightning."
