Before that, I earned my GED diploma and studied for one year at Youth With A Mission's (YWAM) University of the Nations.

Work
I am an instructor of remedial education at a community college. I teach social sciences, literature and reading, writing, and special topics. My pedagogy is that of critical literacy, which Ira Shor defines as
habits of thought, reading, writing, and speaking which go beneath surface meaning, first impressions, dominant myths, official pronouncements, traditional cliches, received wisdom, and mere opinions, to understand the deep meaning, root causes, social context, ideology, and personal consequences of any action, event, object, process, organization, experience, text, subject matter, policy, mass media, or discourse.[1]
