"Hello student and/or parent,

My education and career/work experience is varied, affording me knowledge in various subject areas. I am a nationally certified pathologist's assistant with experience in forensic medicine, and have a master's degree in accounting with an emphasis on taxes. My formal full-time career recently ended in retirement but I have a new mission-- to tutor/teach!!

I regard tutoring as much a coaching job as it is a teaching job. I must INSPIRE, TEACH, EVALUATE, and OBTAIN HONEST FEEDBACK. The students must be able to RELAX, FOCUS, LISTEN, and LEARN. Learning should be an adventure, interesting, and fun! no matter what age or level!!! Of course there are serious goals to attain --- comprehension, remembering facts and figures, solving problems, projects, tests, and good grades (among others)!!! A measure of success is when the student is proud of what he/she has accomplished!

I would like to be your tutor and help you attain your goals.

Sincerely" less...
