Teaching Style:
I
believe my teaching style is motivational, encouraging,
educational and fun!
My goal
is to encourage students not only to excel in academics, but
also to encourage them to get involved with activities on
campus. I want to make City College a home away from home, a
place where people enjoy themselves and look forward to
returning. San Diego City College is a great place to receive an
educational experience from. |

"We have a great bunch of athletes who not only love to play the
game, but they get along better than any team I've ever had. We
are going to have a very fun season. I hope you have a chance to
come and see us play."
