Experience
Most students find learning boring, likely because their teachers aren't finding a way to make it interesting. I try to make what they are learning relevant to today so they will remember information and use it in the future. Here are some facts about me: -Scored 31 Composite on ACT (often higher in single categories) -Achieved highest praise for GED score -Graduate Teaching Assistant for 3 years at UMKC -Teaching Assistant for 1 year Trevecca Nazarene University before I transferred to MVNU -Published my graduate thesis -Spoken at Medieval History conferences such as M.A.M.A.
