Dick T.
Private tutor in Washington, DC
Education
Graduated from Illinois State University in Normal, Illinois (yes, I was a Normal student!) with a BS in Sociology and from the University of Illinois with an MA in Social Justice Professions. Have also had numerous post-grad courses in several subjects, such as project management, finance, law enforcement and so on. Recently, at age 66, I started taking courses in history at the University of Delaware.
Experience
Several years of tutoring in ESL with grade and high school students. Also taught English in Japan for a year and taught at the community college level. I have lots of life experience (another way to say that is: I'm old) and want to pass along what I've learned to a younger generation. I like to see the light bulb light.......and the grin cross the face when my students 'get it.'

Hobbies
Avid reader of mostly non-fiction, particularly history. Active in Habitat for Humanity work. Former police officer, college administrator, radio announcer, fire fighter and currently a telecommunications administrator. I call it my 'checkered past.' Work in the NOVA area.
