"I love life and love to share with anyone willing to listen. I'm limited by temporary health problems to tutoring on-line exclusively. I was a Med Tech for 30 years in the local hospitals. I'm paralyzed, with a spinal cord injury, freak cycling injury, which has given me patience and understanding in the ways of learning. Insight in the frustrations of learning. I was quite active, I suppose I still am, just not the ways I once was. I love the water, the ocean, ocean life. I loved poking around in tide pools as a child vacationing at the beach. My first job out of Med Tech school was in Seaside, where I gained a lot of experience and insight in the ways of healthcare in the 80s...holy HMO's Batman! Who took the care out of healthcare. So I learned to surf and sail and continued to learn and poke around in tide pools. Then my life suddenly changed. I was given a challenge I never expected, an opportunity to learn about healthcare from the other side of the chart. But more importantly I was given the crash course in acceptance and gratitude, humility. My body cannot do many things that it once could but I can share what I've learned with patience and humility. I am honored to share my time, knowledge and experience from a somewhat unique perspective." less...
