The opportunity to bring my British culture into the profession of tutoring continues a long heritage in helping others learn through support, encouragement, discipline, and motivation. With effort, commitment, and determination, a student can find success. I thoroughly enjoy the "ah ha" moment when a student begins to grasp the ideas and concepts in a subject. Getting to this moment is important. Equally important is building on that moment in further learning. I have found that a student intuitively knows if the tutor is patient, understanding, and creative about helping the learning process. This is personally important to me as a father of three children. I am indebted to those men and women that have tutored me from an early age. It is my desire to pass on that process in helping others.

My hobbies include: reading, writing, collecting books of antiquity, church history, travel, eating foreign national foods, cultural experiences, cross-fit, and conversation.
