I became a writing tutor here at Contra Costa College in the winter of 2000 when I was a student working on my direct transfer to the Contra Costa.

My 22+ years in the educational arena--and ongoing professional development--have taught me to help students to shift from lower- to higher-order thinking, which is really only coaching them to go from knowing the "what" of things to putting all those "whats" together to understand the "hows" and "whys".
