Experience
I spent 28 years in the public education system as both a teacher and, guidance counselor. I recently officially retired this past winter but would like very much, to continue working with students at all levels, in all areas. As a teacher, I have taught classes at the elementary level with grades 2,3,5,6 in all academic areas as well as in Social Studies (Sociology, US History and Anthropology) at the high school level. In my position as guidance counselor, I was heavily involved in teaching students one on one in the areas of: Study Skills, Comprehension, Essay Development, Organization. In addition, I have been tutoring students in the areas of reading comprehension and writing skills for several years with those in grades 2 through 12.

Hobbies
My favorite hobby is reading! At the same time, I really enjoy watching baseball (and attending games when possible), football (and attending games when possible) along with music and spending time with family, friends and pets as well as hiking! I believe in daily exercise also because, it wakes me up in the morning and allows me 50 minutes of time to think things through that pertain to my life. I do enjoy biking when the weather is good and not to windy and seeking out any historical sites!
