I have an earned Ph.D. in philosophy (University of Miami, 1996) with professional publications in _Synthese_, _Journal of Medical Ethics_, _Faith and Philosophy_, and other journals. I have over thirty years’ experience teaching philosophy.
I was a graduate student in mathematics at the University of Alabama, where I taught sections in College Algebra (including trigonometry taught from the unit circle).
Verbal aptitude: I scored 99th percentile on the Miller Analogies Test and 98th percentile on the verbal section of the Graduate Record Exam.
Math aptitude: I scored a perfect 800 on the quantitative section of the Graduate Record Exam and 98th percentile on the analytic section.
I have two years’ experience successfully tutoring in SAT and ACT test prep.
I am married and have two grown daughters, both graduates of Georgia Institute of Technology (_cum laude_ and _summa cum laude_).
I believe learning should be an adventure. However, I teach constructively, beginning with what the student already knows, so the adventure is fun and builds the student’s confidence.
I enjoy teaching because I enjoy seeing my students acquire competence in a subject and gain self-assurance as they improve their skills.
Please contact me through the WyzAnt email system. I am available to tutor on most days and would enjoy meeting with you.

I designed and taught a senior-level college course in Christian philosophy, which, of course, heavily referenced the Bible. I have published two papers on theology in Faith and Philosophy, the journal of the Society of Christian Philosophers. I read Koine Greek, as so can, and do, read the New Testament with reference to the available Greek editions.
