Dear Student,
I consider myself a "student of life." I am excited about the possibilities of helping you teach yourself more about the subjects you are interested in. It is my belief that we all teach ourselves, and sometimes that process takes longer than we would like. As a teacher, I hope to present some ideas and concepts for you to consider, that might help enhance your comprehension. The most important thing is to be optimistic and patient. As Herman Hesse wrote in his book Siddhartha, "If you can learn patience, you can learn anything." I myself, am not particularly fast at learning some things, and I have a saying that I use to remind myself, "The more you do it, the better you get." So, with Patience, and Practice, you can master almost anything as long as you are willing to spend time to Work at it.
I have spent the past 17 years working in Film Special Effects, and Computer Video graphics, and now I am ready for a new adventure. Helping students to teach themselves seems like an important and interesting opportunity.
My college education is in Engineering and Computer Science, so I have a good knowledge of basic math and science. I also play piano and compose music. I have self-produced a number of audio music CD's of original music. Also, I love history. I have read almost 2000 books in my life and am familiar with most periods in history. I am especially interested in ancient Roman History, American History, Modern Art History, and the prehistory of early man.
In conclusion, if you need help with Basic Math, Algebra, History, or Music Theory, I would love an opportunity to help out. Together we can tackle the difficult issues, and before you know it, you will have mastered them.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Thank you for your time and good luck with your learning adventure.
Sincerely,
Bill
