I have been teaching at a college level for the past 22 years. Originally an electronic engineer by profession, I became involved in teaching Telecommunications at a local college. Since then, I became a full time faculty member at a career college where I have been teaching for 20 years in the field of Computer Networking and Information Technology and Mathematics. I come from a family of teachers. My mother was an elementary school teacher for her entire career and my older brother became a teacher while serving in the military. I have 2 children who have become teachers in public schools. I personally have a passion for teaching Information Technology courses. I utilize my engineering and professional background to supplement my presentations using a hands-on approach. Students learn best when they can have an interaction with the computer related equipment that they are trying to master. I like working with smaller groups or even one-on-one with students that need extra help. I am extremely patient with students who may be experiencing difficulty in learning. I prefer teaching in a regular classroom environment; however, I have also taught in the on-line arena. Either way, my students have always been very satisfied with their overall outcomes and experiences.

Great Help with Networking Project

Stan was incredibly helpful in giving us direction and explanation for our created network! He is very knowledgeable, kind, and easy to talk and ask questions to. This project has been very stressful and we feel so much more confident having talked with him, we highly recommend reaching out to him with any Networking topics and issues!

Melanie, 1 lesson with Stan

he understands his subject

Prof Stan is able to answer my questions by solving the equations and showing the math while explaining how he gets the resolution. I learn in this format when the professor explains each questions and answer with math reasoning and demonstrating his electrical engineering background
