I believe that you only get one chance to make a good first impression, and that people are capable of more than is expected of them. As an example, many drivers in the United States believe that they cannot learn how to drive a standard transmission car, and yet throughout the rest of the world such cars are the norm and automatic transmissions the rarity. Do I believe that entire populations of the world are smarter or more intelligent than Americans? No, I do not. I believe what is holding people back from realizing their full potential is their own limited and fearful expectations.

I am an attorney who has had the privilege of being involved in the rearing of many of my nieces. I have taught Head Start to young children. I enjoy animals and have trained and shown dogs and horses. I was a Docent at our local zoo and educated the public about many species of animals. I spent my teen-age years growing up in Germany and attending school in England. Thus, I was exposed to various cultures at a young age.

Grammar

Grammar is the rules of the game when the name of the game is English reading or writing. Just as knowing the rules to baseball makes understanding and appreciating baseball more fun, knowing and understanding the rules of grammar not only makes you more understandable, it makes it easier for you to communicate. Correct grammar also increases the accuracy of your message.

General Computer

Computers are here to stay. They are intended to make your life easier, in communicating with others and maintaining data. These objects are not realized if you are not knowledgeable of a computer's capacity and unable to utilize it fully.

I enjoy using a computer, as well as teaching others to expand their computing skills. I am knowledgeable of the normal computer programs, as well as having learned various proprietary programs.

German

As a pre-teen my parents moved to Germany for my father's job. I was so ignorant about foreign languages that I thought that after a time listening to German I would magically understand it.

As the family waited for hours in Tempelhof Airport while my father went through in-processing for his job, I would surreptitiously eavesdrop on the conversations that were taking place around me. I kept waiting for the magical moment when I would be able to understand German. Sadly, learning a... Read More

Microsoft Word

I have used Microsoft Word for over 10 years. I can teach you how to use the mouse or the keyboard to create and edit your documents. Microsoft Word gives you the ability to change the font (character style), color, and style of your document to create a professionally appearing document. These documents can be used for letters, resumes, promotional materials, web pages, etc.

Reading

I love to read and find it both a way to get out one's normal, everyday existence by exploring new places, as well as a way to connect with humanity on an emotional level through a variety of stories. Language is the manner in which we interact with each other, stories are the method in which we share this interaction, and reading in the means in which we connect to these stories.

Writing

I minored in English during university and received straight A's in all English courses. After starting university mid-term and "acing" both an upper level creative writing class as well as an upper level literature class, I was waived from taking the freshman required English courses.

Prior to this college experience I went to a British boarding school and took "O" (ordinary) and "A" (advanced)Levels in English Literature.

Proofreading

As a legal professional I have researched, written, reviewed, and edited multiple legal documents, including appellate briefs. I have also reviewed multiple business documents provided in response to discovery requests in lawsuits. I also write fiction, prose and poetry. I am a member of a local writing group, as well as an attendee/ participant at numerous writing conferences.

My legal writing experience allows me to follow strict style constraints when necessary, while my fiction... Read More

SAT Writing

I minored in English during university and received straight A's in all English courses. After starting university mid-term and "acing" both an upper level creative writing class as well as an upper level literature class, I was waived from taking the freshman required English courses.

Test taking involves knowledge of the subject matter as well as test taking skills.

Elementary Math

Basic math, in addition to being a required school subject, is elementary to being able to keep track of your earnings and expenditures. Even when you have the use of a calculator, you still need to know the concepts of mathematics in order to correctly use a calculator.

Basic mathematics builds upon concrete building blocks and is a foundation skill for future independent living and also for higher mathematics. Many people have an aversion to math and also a fear of it. These feelings... Read More

Study Skills

As a professional (attorney) I have had to study at every level of my formal education, as well as continuing having to become educated on new areas of the law. I believe that people have different strengths while learning and study skills should be flexible to take into consideration individual strengths and weaknesses.

Sewing

I learned to sew by using scraps of fabric left over by clothing my mother made and making them into Barbie doll clothes. I graduated from hand sewing, which included some embroidery, to using a sewing machine. I have made my own clothes, including shirts, slacks, skirts and dresses, as well as suits and a woolen, winter over coat. In sewing for others I have made a christening gown, jacket, and bonnet with hand sewn lace panels. I have also made some lap size quilts.

Public Speaking

I am an attorney and have had to speak in public on innumerable occasions. As I am naturally shy, I believe that I can understand an individual's reluctance to speak in public, as well as provide helpful insights to make the process easier.

Microsoft Windows

I have been using a computer in office settings since before MS Windows was invented. There are usually three ways to everything in windows, by using a combination of keyboard strokes, or by using the mouse or an icon or drop down menu.

Understanding the basic principles behind the programming assists you in finding solutions. The computer was made to HELP you, not HINDER you, in whatever project you under take.

Effectiveness in using a computer will only ever help you personally... Read More

Sociology

My undergraduate degree (BA) was is sociology from the University of New Haven, West Haven, Connecticut. I was an honors scholar in sociology and did a research study and thesis for my senior project. I was on the Dean's list, which required a GPA of greater than 3.2, every semester of my college career. My ending GPA was 3.63, which included a minor in English and Psychology.

Subsequent to my sociology degree I went to law school and obtained a J.D.
