Having taught at the junior high and high school and junior college both on the East Coast and Midwest, from big schools in the inner city to small schools in the small town to learners from every ethnicity and background, I feel uniquely qualified to teach students those skills that will help them meet the challenges they will face. Of course, because I like to both write and read, open always to explore avenues in either discipline: these habits have become attributes that I can impart to the learner.
