We provide a Montessori based cottage school group in Geneva. We dedicated space in my home to create a beautiful environment custom designed for this purpose.

We have walking access to miles of nature trails and wetlands.

Our hands on materials support learners at many different academic levels. We have a capacity of seven students. We have five currently. Students must be above age five.

We allow children to discover their unique gifts and interests then follow these interests to help each student reach his or her individual best. When we see a child's eyes light up with possibility, we have succeeded.

We hope every child will fall in love with learning. It has been our experience that once a child discovers his or her inner motivation and the inherent fun in learning, they become hungry to learn about things they may not have been open to previously. Instead of having students study for a particular test or hastily write a paper, we hope to foster lifelong learners. Over time our students provide their maximum effort because they have learned to enjoy what they do.

Although this sounds unlikely at first, last year the students chose to read Plato, Aristotle, Socrates and Nietsche.

I have 14 years of teaching experience. I have worked with infants, toddlers, preschool children, kindergarten, early elementary, middle school and college students.

Unfortunately, I do not have experience with high school aged children.

References from parents and students are available upon request.

I am a public speaker who has given over 100 powerpoint presentations in Wisconsin and Illinois on my book The Soldiers of Poverty which tells the true story of Civilian Conservation Corps Company 692. This company started out in Makanda, Illinois to develop Giant City Park. In 1935, they were transferred to Mellen, Wisconsin to develop Copper Falls State Park, when the men endured one of the coldest winters in Wisconsin's history. My presentation provides an overview of the Great Depression and the conditions that forced young men 18-25 years old to volunteer their service in the Civilian Conservation Corps.This presentation would be extremely appropriate for a grandparent/student group setting with a "Soup Kitchen Luncheon," where the students could ask questions about the era.

The Soldiers of Poverty is at the Freshman HS reading level but has a glossary of unfamiliar terms from the era in the back. This is also the only book in existence that tells the story of the Civilian Conservation Corps in Wisconin. On March 31, 2008 will be the 75th anniversary of the Civilian Conservation Corps. I would be honored to schedule a presentation for students at the 6th grade level and up. My speaking fee is $100 for a one-hour presentation and I would like the opportunity to have a book signing and sale afterwards. I also come with 8-large table top displays that could be brought to your site.
