"I have had the privilege of teaching and tutoring for 24 years. I have 3 earned degrees, including a Bachelors in Education degree from Pensacola Christian College (1992), an Associate or Arts degree from Hobe Sound Bible College (1992), and a Masters Degree from The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary (1996). I am presently employed full time at Hobe Sound Bible College and Academy where I teach in a classroom and tutor over 30 students on a weekly basis. It is a highlight of mine to see student's grasp what I am teaching them; it is extremely rewarding. I am happily married with 5 children from 6 years to 19 years. All of my children are at the top of their class. I have high expectations not only for my children, but also for my students that I tutor. I use a lot of praise and affirmation while tutoring. Students leave their lessons encouraged and motivated. I am excited to help your child learn and advance. Feel free to ask for references.

As a principal and as a teacher, I taught students in grades 7-12 Literature, Science, English, Math, Music, Bible. I currently tutor over 30 students regularly. Although my strengths are in Music and English, I also teach unicycling and juggling. I have enjoyed teaching students ranging from age 4-78. I do have experience teaching children with special needs and autism. The instruments I teach (with 24 years experience) include, flute, clarinet, oboe, saxophone, trumpet, trombone, French horn, baritone/euphonium, tuba, drums, bells, piano, violin, and guitar.

My second teaching field in college, after music, is English. I enjoy helping students with limited English speaking abilities. I do speak a little bit of Spanish.

I would be honored to teach you or child. Do not hesitate to contact me with questions or to request references. I normally respond within a few hours." less...
