After teaching at Benedictine High School in Richmond, VA, for four years, I moved to Freiburg to study musicology. Soon I discovered that I was much more useful here in Germany putting my language abilities to use. I've taught at the Goethe Institut, the Universtiy of Freiburg, Pädagogische Hochschule Freiburg, the Evangelische Hochschule Freiburg, the Carl-Schurz-Haus, the Volkshochschule, and various other places. I've directed an English theater group, led advanced seminars for teachers and promoted my publications around Germany and in the US. Now I edit textbooks for German high school students who are learning English.
