ABOUT mE...

I have been a teacher for more than 20 years, most of which have been teaching math.  I have taught numerous other online math classes before, and have taken a number of online classes as a student.  I have also taught many classes in a traditional classroom, including many mathematics subjects other than the ones I am currently teaching. I have also taught career classes such as Kuder, WorkKeys, and basic Carpentry. I am a big Clemson fan, especially Tiger Football.  I grew up in Ohio, but moved to South Carolina over 30 years ago.  In my free time I enjoy traveling, camping, fishing, and generally anything that involves spending time outside in nature.

I believe very strongly that education is the key to the betterment of society. With an education people are able to gain employment, provide for themselves and their families, and be productive members of society. I believe that all students are capable of learning and that everyone brings a unique perspective to the classroom. Our students come from a broad range of backgrounds and with that, they all have contributions they can make to the learning experiences of others as well as in their own lives.
