There was always something new to learn and I seemed to always be in a teaching mode, sharing with those around me in our efforts to learn more about the world around us. From these early activities, it was noticeable that my interest and natural ability in Mathematics and Science were beginning to surface. Of equal importance, I figured out how I learned best and how to engage others so that they would learn most effectively as well.

Later, my undergraduate and graduate study at three prestigious universities furthered my quest for learning. For my undergraduate study at the University of Wisconsin, I chose History as my major. Then, I went to the University of Michigan Law School. Following these two degrees, I believed that there was still more that I wanted to learn about History, and this led to obtaining a Ph.D. degree in U.S. History, from the University of North Carolina. These degrees and my projects thereafter were financed primarily by tutoring middle school, high school, and college students in mathematics and science, subjects that have continued to be my areas of natural ability and interest. Even today, the research which led to the Ph.D. has also encouraged me to continue to examine and learn more about these two areas of study. Overall, subjects that I have experience and skill in teaching and building students' competency through tutoring are Mathemat" less...
