I am a veteran teacher who has really enjoyed teaching people of all ages from 5-85. I like to make students feel relaxed and confident so that he/she can achieve excellence. I believe in positive reinforcement and have great patience. A thousand questions directed to me means that you're interested and they never deter me or frustrate me, so ask away. I took early retirement from teaching, but then I really missed the student/teacher interaction. I enjoy my students, so I don't mind going the extra mile for one. Also, a one on one relationship, as opposed to a group situation, makes difficult situations vanish so much more quickly. I'm committed to helping and I'm excited to meet my new students.
