I am a currently credentialed but presently retired high school teacher with over 30 years experience teaching in the classroom. I have taught every Social Science subject but specialize in Economics and US Government. I have also taught AP Economics and Government, and I wrote the AP Microeconomics curriculum for my school district. My AP students have consistently scored at or above the national averages on AP exams, even though my school was officially designated by the state as having a generally underperforming student population.
While my main experience has been in the classroom, I have had a number of special tutoring sessions for both gifted students (related mostly to success on the AP exams) as well as my special education classified students who needed extra help with their studies.
I am a follower of Christ with 40 years experience in church ministry, Bible study activity, and apologetics training.
I have formally taught AP Microeconomics in the classroom and informally tutored AP Macroeconomics to students engaged in self-study.
I have formally taught AP US Government and Politics.
In my career I have served as GATE program coordinator, BTSA teacher mentor, Academic Decathlon coach, and have coached a number of athletic teams most notably tennis.
My professional achievements include earning a National Board for Professional Teaching Standards certification in 2003.
Feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule a lesson. I look forward to working with you!

Bible Studies

I have been a follower of Christ for 45 years. I have also been active in church ministry for 30 years, including serving as assistant youth pastor from 1992 to 2001. I've also led Sunday School classes most recently those related to apologetics training. My wife and I have held home group Bible studies at our house, and as a teacher I have led lunch Bible study at public school where I taught. On three occasions I have filled in giving the Sunday morning sermon at our evangelical church of about 400 congregants. Finally I have a Masters Degree in Leadership Studies from a mainline evangelical university that involved coursework in ministry, business, and education.
