When I am not in the classroom you are likely to find me playing soccer (played club soccer at Lehigh), basketball, or working out in the gym to ensure my health and fitness.

...numbers was rekindled and a newly discovered passion for chemistry was established. While in college, I quickly discovered the excitement I had towards teaching others about the subjects I hold dear to myself.

...what interests you about a subject or even an unconventional (but effective) way to approach a subject can instill that motivation on its own, giving the student the desire to move forward for him- or herself.

...I have a 100% passing rate. I am also an AP reader. Each year, I score thousands of actual AP U.S. history exams, which has provided me much insight into what the college board actually expects in DBQs, LEQs, and SAQs.

Finally, as for my educational background, I have a BA in history...

...is between cultures. If I hadn't met my best friend from Germany, I don't think I would be where I am now. Some people believe there has to be a "reason" to learn a language. But that reason is a better understanding of the world and better communication skills, which we all need in life. I want to help students succeed in this aspect, this way they are able to understand the world in their...

Writing is the cornerstone of education. It is so important that it is the only subject required from pre-school onward. I want to use my creative writing skills to help others find their voice and to constructively record their thoughts.

I ask myself the question, did learning take place? Another key goal of my approach is teaching students how to bring greater clarity to their writing. Though it tends to send students back to the...
