    Discover history and government with an expert teacher who has 20+ years experience

    Hi. I have 20+ years experience teaching American Government and history both in the United States and New Zealand. I enjoy working with students and helping them see how important and interesting both of these subjects can be. Past student evaluations emphasize that I am an energetic teacher who treats each student with respect. I know that politics today can seem overwhelming but each of us can learn the skills to understand our past, participate in our present, and shape our future. I look forward to working with you.
