Background and areas of expertise :

I majored in History and earned secondary teaching certification in Pennsylvania. My master's research concerned providing effective library service to patrons whose first language is not English.

I can be of particular help with:

• Historical research
• Literary criticism and theory
• Biographical searches
• Primary sources - how to find them and how to use them
• Best teaching and learning practices
• Building bibliographies and citing properly
• ...and much more.
