Favorite quote: All things, Nancy, come to light in the end. (Dunstan Cass in Silas Marner)

Favorite book: To Kill a Mockingbird

Teaching philosophy: Learn something new and pass it on.

Pet Peeve: Students not coming in for help.

For the record, I do not offer extra credit work. It is a common request by parents, but my objective is for students to focus on the work designed for skills and academic progress rather than for "bumper points" for a grade.
