Background in Science/Math, put to the test as a Peace Corps Fisheries Volunteer, I have lived and worked in French-speaking Africa for more than 10 years with non-profit organizations, then served in the U.S. diplomatic corps as an Economic Officer, writing cable reports to Washington on macro and microeconomic issues. My last tour of duty was at the Naval War College, where I taught in the Strategy and Policy Dept, teaching historical case studies and conducting tutorials to help military officers write better essays. I want to help Middle and High School students prepare for SSAT/ACT/SAT math, writing, language and essay sections. I hold a Top Secret clearance, speak French and am the married father of 3 school aged children. My preference is to do in-person tutoring at the student's choice of location.
