"Hello and welcome to my profile!

I'm a scientist, lifelong learner, and seasoned educator with 20+ years of experience helping students of all ages succeed in language, math, and science courses. As a professional educator, my versatility, patience, and passion for education are some of the attributes I'm known for. I customize lessons based on my students' needs and goals, current grade, degree of complexity of the material, and proficiency.

Teaching others anything or merely conveying an idea or concept - and doing it well - is something I'm passionate about and aspire to.

Besides teaching, my other interests include surfing, hiking, biking, movies, music, poetry, art, and traveling.

Thanks for your interest. I look forward to working with you.
