I use this knowledge to instruct in all academic subjects, vocational and life skills, and personal development. I don't have a particular favorite subject to teach.

Learning is important and knowledge is important and succeeding academically is important. But the most important thing you should take away from a good education is the ability to think. Think broadly, think critically, and think for yourself. It's a...

I am however comfortable teaching math, history, and especially the...

...returned to the United States I began a rigorous one-year post baccalaureate premedical program at Bennington College in Vermont. This was an incredibly challenging experience, in which I not only learned physics, chemistry and biology, but I also learned to be strategic with my time, and get the most out of my classes and homework.
