  EDUCATION – RESEARCH – WRITING - COMMUNICATIONS\nAccomplished Research

  Writing and Instructional professional with a keen interest in andragogy

  the theory of how adults learn best. Working in higher education

  I consider all of my students to be adults

  even if they are of traditional age. I have a special interest in non-traditional students as well

  those who balance work

  family

  sports

  etc. on top of their pursuit of higher education. One of my greatest passions

  as a result

  is online learning. \nMy own educational background encompasses philosophy

  literature

  composition

  education

  and library science. This blend allows me to focus on creating a student-centered

  project-learning-based classroom

  where I follow Stephen North’s philosophy of creating better writers. \n
