...at the American Language Center in Damascus. As seems pretty evident, I love to travel and have lived in different countries teaching and learning too. I currently hold two master's in History and Latin American studies. In both master's programs I worked with college-aged students on their critical thinking, textual analysis, and writing skills.

Life long learning is a hoot! Even with what I have accomplished, I'm not through yet. Curiosity has me constantly looking for things I don't know and mastering them. With 50 years in the classroom - yes this is an old picture - I'm still sticking nose into new things and pushing to learn all I can. If you can express your needs, we will find them together.

I love helping students achieve their goals and dreams.

I'm very motivated, but have a great sense of humor - and if we're working over the Internet, there may be guest...

...switch up visual/auditory/kinesthetic approaches, and also try to ground things to reality: why learn something in the first place? For me I generally need to connect new information to old information; find a point of solid understanding and trace a path from there. My earliest education was hanging around the newspaper where my father worked, where I developed a critical eye while looking for typos. I received a Bachelor's degree in music theory from Binghamton...
