"After 35 years of teaching, I have retired from that rewarding career. I have had so many wonderful moments during that time. I have directed students in plays and speech and drama competitions. My students have performed for the elderly and at hospitals. I believe in giving back to the community.

Most importantly, I have worked one one one with students and know that I have had a meaningful impact on their learning. Their is nothing as worthwhile as realizing a child "got it"! That "Ah-ha" moment is priceless. I look forward to working with your child.

I love to share my knowledge of reading and writing. It's so special to know that you can use and understand words and the English language in a meaningful way. Reading and understanding, writing with purpose and speaking with confidence are all within our grasp.

Please don't worry or get frustrated. Please put your faith in someone like me who has been trained to bring out the best in children. I know I can do 2 things for you or your child: make learning fun and help give you/your child the sense of self worth he/she deserves. I look forward to hearing from you soon." less...
