About me
I have been a culinary instructor for the past 27 years. My greatest teaching pleasure lies in sharing my work experience with students so that they can see the growth that is available through our shared industry, so long as appropriate effort is applied toward continuous learning and adapting. I feel that it is of the utmost importance that instructors remain active in the industry so that they can convey to students changes in technique and customer wants and needs. If we aren't still practicing our craft except inside the classroom, we are out of the loop and our instruction is at best dated and incomplete. In addition, I feel it is as important to teach well those students whose aspirations are reasonably humble as it is to teach those students who expect to have TV cooking shows.
