In addition to decades of business experience, I have over 15 years of experience teaching, tutoring, and coaching students from age 5 to adults primarily in the subjects of Math and English. I am a former member of MENSA and a published author. I have tutored and coached baseball on an individual basis and for teams. I am a member of the UNLV Athletic Hall of Fame in baseball. I have also made a living for several years playing poker (a practical use of math and observation skills).

All of the teaching/tutoring/coaching that I do is very much "hands on". I have "been there and done that", and I've found the best way to learn is by doing as long as you are doing it right. That's where I come in. Practice doesn't make perfect. Perfect practice makes perfect. I also make things easier to learn by getting into the mind of the student to know how they relate to the subject and finding the right way to communicate the knowledge.
