About
I have been teaching high school and college English (literature, composition, etymology, creative writing, and remediation courses for standardized testing) for 35 years; in fact, I am still teaching at New Tech Institute in EVSC. I love it; what can I say? In addition to EVSC, I have taught home schoolers, night school adult basic ed, alternative education, and tutored all ages. I have taught Eng 98,101,201, and ESL at USI. I have a list of credentials too long for this space (In short I have a Master's + 20 and am a certified teacher trainer for the New Tech Network. For more info call 812-453-6889 and leave a message.
I love helping people succeed, and having command of the language is a huge part of that.
