History and government studies are evolving stories about who we are and where we go with decision-making, solving or entering into conflicts, and how society changes. In American history, o...

I grew up in a family which stresses the importance of education; thus, it has become a passion of mine. I enjoy sharing my passion with others and helping them achieve their educational goals.

Winona
Enjoy Reading or Drawing with Winona
I've always been crazy for reading, from the cereal box in the morning to a great book of adventure. Whenever I could find time as a girl I curled up in my grandfather's chair with a Tarzan or Nancy Drew Novel. I also love History, especially Ancient History. Books are a window to the world, whether it's an e-book or the old fashioned kind. I also would draw, on little tablets, what I interpreted from what I had read. This interest grew to drawing my animals and family, especially home-mad... Read more
