I get the most satisfaction from teaching in the one-on-one interaction of tutoring. Everybody is unique. Some students learn best through auditory senses, others through the visual senses. Above all, a tutor needs patience in helping the student discover his or her optimum-learning niche.

My reporting experience began at the State College of Florida’s newspaper. At the University of South Florida, I received a Bachelor of Arts Degree in English Literature with a minor in journalism. For seven years I did substitute teaching in all grades and subjects. Working with young people infused me with a zest that still shines through in my writing. At Walmart and Family Publishers, I entertained my associates with my humorous newsletters. In 1999, I published my experiences online as I cycled from Sarasota to Santa Cruz.

My published articles range from yoga benefits to how to split an atom. I have also written eight novels.

I have a B.A. in English and also took some graduate English courses. I belong to several writing groups and know how to proofread manuscripts. Each day I write and study grammar.
