About me

Gender Female
Industry Education
Occupation tutor
Location Michigan, United States
Introduction I am a tutor for homeschool coops, teaching writing and various middle school science subjects. I love teaching--it almost doesn't matter what--as long as I am imparting knowledge and skills. I am hearing impaired--one ear has a hearing aid, the other has been replaced with a cochlear implant which I am still adjusting to. Twenty-first century medicine is something for which I am immensely grateful.

Your people want to make a statue in your honor. What will it be made out of and what victory will it commemorate?

Wax, with a wick on top! It will celebrate the end of my vanity. When you light it, I'll know I got there!
