OBJECTIVES
My main objective in life is to teach to others the many valuable lessons I have learned over the years. When that comes to students with Special Needs, I firmly believe that everyone has a Special Purpose in life, and I enjoy bringing out the best in all of my students. Skills can be developed by a wide variety of learning opportunities, so I believe it is my job to bring those opportunities to each individual student. It is a wonderful thing to witness someone discover their strengths so they can go out into the world fully confident in their ability to do well and to be successful.
www.buildyourownhouse.ca All the Writing and Development of My Building, Construction, Health and Happiness. Family-Oriented Site. Over 1.7 million visits.
The Simpsons. 3 Full-Length Spec. Scripts, including one Featuring Ben Johnson, Olympic Sprinter.
Website Development and Management, 2001 - Present http://www.buildyourownhouse.ca , https://buildyourownhousebodylife.blogspot.com I have spent many years Writing and Developing this very substantial Website, which enjoys a large Readership and a great deal of Traffic (1.7+ million visits for my site, 888,201+ views for my blog). My plan is to continue with the website management, and build on the growth I have already experienced. This website grew out of a desire to teach people how to Manage their Finances and ultimately being able to buy or build their own home. The site grew to include anything I felt was useful to everyday living, that wasn't being taught elsewhere. I consider this work one of my best 'Teaching Experiences', because of the sheer number of people I have been able to help. Also, I've learned more about the Computer than I ever would have imagined for myself, so that was an added bonus!
Construction:
Building and Renovation, 1996 - Present Over these years I have Renovated, Developed and Built a number of Buildings, culminating with the Design and Build of my own 5400 square foot home. It was a huge undertaking, and I came away with innumerable Skills and Knowledge that will serve me well in the Future.
