I like to make lots of comparisons to current events that are relevant to the subject matter at hand to make things less intimidating and foreign. When I am not working I like playing and recording original music, cooking (often French dishes, not surprisingly), and watching...

...the study of governments both domestic and foreign - largely because of an ability to see the common themes and historical threads which wove said topics together, and highlighting the ways in which forces of the past continue to influence the events of the present.

While comfortable teaching a large number of subjects, History, Psychology, Writing, Reading, and Geography are of my most superior subjects. The only thing I enjoy more than teaching, is learning, and I hope to instill that same thirst for knowledge in my students with my methods of teaching. As...
