Experience
I taught ESOL in Korea for two years in the Peace Corps. I have worked with young people for many years: Coordinator, Orleans United Drug Free Communities Coalition Coordinator, Smoke Free NOW Consultant, Court Administrator For Juvenile Services Executive Director, Big Brothers/Big Sisters of Wabash Valley State Coordinator, Big Brothers/Big Sisters of Indiana. Other training and teaching positions: Employment & Training Coordinator, Genesee County Job Development. Bureau Training Specialist, Fujisawa USA Trainer, Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) Teacher, Chicago Public Schools. And counseling Youth: Counselor, Catholic Charities Counselor, Youth Services Bureau SAT scores: English 683, Math 704 Total of 1,387 put me in the upper 1/2 of one percentile. I love helping others understand material. I find methods that will make the material make sense to the student. The M.S. in Management of Adult Learning that I earned emphasized the "Learning", not the "Teaching". I have found that almost everything I learned about teaching adults also applies to younger students.

I like being involved in the world and have had several letters to the editor published. I like humor and I like to have fun!
