I am a retired educator having spent over 25 years in the field of education. I have taught at multiple levels from middle to high school, including adult education. I have set school records in two different school districts for the number of students choosing to participate in my programs. Both curriculums were on the brink of elimination and after much passionate work and enthusiasm, these programs obtained top ratings. These courses had more students wanting to participate than available spaces in the program. After having a highly successful teaching career, I am now a Certified National Trainer giving back to the profession that I love. I am training and coaching all levels of teachers and administrators that are looking to improve their classroom presence and proficiencies. My philosophy about teaching is quite simple: • Treat the kids the way you want to be treated • Be fair and honest • Most importantly…. BE YOURSELF The path I have set myself on is very important to me. I want teachers and administrators to enjoy a successful career, just as I did. So many times, while teaching my students in the classroom I said to myself, “this is what I am supposed to be doing”. My goal is to have as many educational professionals feel the same way about their chosen career. As John Dewey once said, “education is not preparation for life; education is life itself”.
