Experience
I know how important it is to find the right kind of tutor and mentor to help you with academics. I've been passionate about education for a long time, and I value its importance, especially as a father and grandfather. Initially, I dropped out of college after high school, and I decided to marry and become an apprentice machinist. After some time, I was encouraged by my father and wife to go back to school. I enrolled in a college class, while working full time and taking care of two kids. With the help of one of my teachers, I received an associate degree in Applied Science at 33. I went on to get a B.S. in Business Administration at 43, and an M.S. in Management at 55. I've come to excel in my profession as a Division Quality Assurance Manager. I've been able to teach literally hundreds of classes in my field, and I have tutored extensively. I'm qualified to teach and tutor a range of subjects, including American History, Math, Geography, Algebra, English, Social Studies, among others. I'm also able to help with test prep (AP U.S. Government & Politics, AP Comparative Government, IB Business & Management SL/HL, GRE, etc.) and with study skills and organization. I love reading, playing golf and tennis, and spending time with family (going to zoos, aquariums, etc.).
