About Me

I'm local to Southgate, Michigan. I grew up in Lincoln Park went to the elementary, middle, and high school there. After that I attended what was Henry Ford Community College which is now just Henry Ford College. Now I am currently a University of Michigan-Dearborn student finishing my degree in education. Now many of you are like, so why do I care about any of this, well heres the thing Im not going to lie to you, students currently arent ready for college, I wasnt ready for it either. College hit me like a truck when I wasnt looking, not cool. I want to make sure your son/daughter is ready for college and not just with the academics portion of it and yes that is important, although I want to help them become mentally ready for the road ahead as well. As many of you know life isnt about how people gain materialistic items, or how so and so can read and write is about the drive that separates us from one to another. The will to want to do something, and the why to do it this is what I want to teach children not only to become better students yet to become better people, and hopefully one day watch them build our future.

Q&A with Thomas

I like to teach cognitively, which means I don't tend to be redundant through lesson plans. I will touch base on important ideas and topics, although if the student already understands set content, then I would explain the part of the content they don't understand, like filling in the gaps of their knowledge base.
