Gibson,Georgia

Summary

I have had the pleasure of teaching World History, Economics, Psychology, U.S. History, Government, and Reading Classes for over twenty years. In reality I have been a reading teacher, paper editing, discussion leading, devils advocate; all in the hopes that my students would learn to think for themselves. My belief is that life is not, so much about what you know, but what you are willing to do. I have dedicated myself to being truthful and real with my students. I have tried to lead by example by being willing to perform whatever tasks have been asked of me from driving a bus, picking up cage balls, to announcing football games as a servant leader. As a teacher my scope has reached from coaching on the diamond to picking up trash at a community festival. They asked and I did it, my results were not always a success, but I have always been willing to try.
