Experienced former teacher and professional writer

Dan L.

I'm a graduate of Occidental College, with a degree in English, and a minor in History. After graduation, I returned to my hometown and taught high school English before moving to the Texas Medical Center in Houston, where I worked for both Baylor College of Medicine and The University of Texas Health Science Center.

I've taken and passed the CBEST (California Certification "equivalency" exam), and I look forward to helping students succeed on a one-to-one basis.

I pursued a Masters in Education at The University of Houston-Clear Lake (NASA), but had to forgo completing my masters, due to serious family illness.

I enjoy sharing reading for understanding, writing skills (including how to write essays), and inspiring students to express themselves in their writing.
