Teacher expertise and credentials
Teaching has been my career for a long time now. What I love about teaching is seeing my students learn new things and taking that knowledge to further their growth in life.
I am a professional college educator. I hold an MBA, and I have taught learners from preschool to adult years. Courses I teach are Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Python Programming, Scratch coding, Introduction to Computers, Protect your Computers, Hardware, Research, MLA formatting, Commas and Semicolons, Homophones, and others.
I have been teaching and working with computers for a long time now. I know how important it is to keep abreast of the changing technology. Therefore, I want to teach learners the knowledge I gain from my experience.
There are two English classes I teach, which evolve as a result of an ha-ha moment after reading thousands of essays written by college students. I realized that learners need to grasp the fundamentals of any subject matter before attending college. That way, they are prepared and ready to tackle the college level stuff and not the rudimentary.
In my spare time, I love to go for walks in wooded areas with creeks. I also love to go to the beach.
Thank you for reading “About Me,” and I hope you get to know a little bit about my profession and personal life.Reviews
