During the course of my career in finance and accounting, many of my staff and colleagues said that I would make a great teacher. Initially, I scoffed at their suggestion, but then an opportunity presented itself for me to become an adjunct professor at Manchester Community College. My first class was Financial Accounting and it was a great experience as 86% of my class passed, without any prior accounting experience. I acknowledge that each person learns differently and I adjust my teac... Read more

Hi, I'm Matt! I received my education from Reed College, where I studied French and English literature. I've known that I want to be a teacher since I was in high school myself, and that passion has carried me through a whirlwind of linguistic and educational exploration. One of the most important things I've learned in that time is how essential it is to treat students as people, not pupils. I personally learn best when I have a strong connection with my instructor, when I feel they care... Read more
