"I obtained my California Teaching Credential in English & Social Science after I retired from a career in government relations and taught English at John F. Kennedy High School in Sacramento. For the past eight years I have tutored adults for the purpose of getting their GED; I overhauled and managed the Adult Education Program Manager for Sacramento Food Bank & Family Services; I retired from this position on February 27, 2015.
I am married and have three children. My wife is a pharmacist, my oldest son is an attorney in Los Angeles, my second son is an attorney with the National Labor Relations Board in Washington D.C., and my daughter is an Deputy Director for Policy with the Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta. Clearly, education is a priority for me and my family.

As a tutor, I will teach, guide, reteach, urge and push but nothing will happen until the student's mind engages the material.

I will do this with patience and understanding but with an expectation that you have a commitment to succeed." less...
