This web site is meant for family, friends, students, and colleagues. My hope is to keep in contact with all of these important people while I teach English.

Through happenstance and some luck, plus a connection with and mentoring by a few friends, I am starting my ninth year teaching.

Teaching English allows me to learn something new everyday, as well as share my language and culture with others. It's a difficult job to do well!

As of Fall 2015 I am learning another language and experiencing culture shock, frustration, and amazement, just as the students I've worked with, experience everyday. It is both exciting and frightening! I am currently an English Language Fellow in Mongolia.
