I am available for speaking engagements (free of charge for schools and benefits), small-group workshops (get a few friends together and we'll meet over coffee!) and relationship lessons (a great alternative or addition to couple counseling).
I have come to a frightening conclusion.
I am the decisive element in the classroom.
It is my personal approach that creates the climate.
It is my daily mood that makes the weather.
As a teacher I possess tremendous power to make a child's life miserable or joyous.
I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration.
I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal.
In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis
will be escalated or de-escalated, and a child humanized or de-humanized.

Welcome to my website! 

It's a work in progress, so please keep checking back to see what's new.

I'm adding lots of links to all kinds of resources, so please visit my pages and click around to explore.

I make my living through tutoring and counseling, but I also want to provide as much free information and support as possible, for parents, educators and couples.
