Also, I produced and directed a publicly presented home-school play. Currently, I write theater history manuals and produce videos for the Academy of the Arts in Ft. Lauderdale, Fl.

Special Needs

Compassion and patience are the most important characteristics of anyone working with special needs students. As a substitute teacher for twenty years (1982-2003), I was placed in many classrooms for the handicapped. Bright Horizons is one of those special schools I was privileged to gain experience in. Sycamore High School was another. Indian Hill Middle School offered integrated classrooms for special needs students. I learned to look beyond the physical and focus on the spirit of a person, meeting that individual where he or she is.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

I have had Bonny as my tutor since last year while I was working on my BSN, and currently while I am working on my Masters program to become a Nurse Practitioner. She is available and will respond quickly to your needs. She has always delivered reviewed papers on time, and has never been late. I know I can rely on her and would recommend her to everyone. When my daughter starts her college English class, I will enlist Bonny to help tutor her as well. I give Bonny a very high recommendation!
