AS - General science studies; GPA 3.57
Pursued general studies leading for a transfer to Humboldt State University, as well as many science and technology classes that were interesting.
BA - International Studies with a Chinese Emphasis;
GPA: 3.68
This is an interdisciplinary degree putting emphasis in understanding non-Western countries, their peoples, cultures, politics, general historical contexts, and geographies. The Chinese emphasis focused specifically on China, with historical relationships with other Asian and western countries.
MA Education in TESOL; GPA: 3.79
The studies involved teaching methods, content creation, pedagogical theory, and curriculum creation pertaining to how to teach English conversation, reading and writing skills to non-native English speakers.
Kevin has studied how to teach English to anybody who doesn’t know it but wants to learn it and give everybody a fun experience at the same time.
Kevin has an MA degree in Education, and he has worked for over 13 years in both the Chinese and American education systems, which have given him unique perspectives from which to critically examine contemporary pedagogies and educational theories. He also experienced his personal education from the perspectives of both a disabled student and a researcher. It took him over 37 years to obtain his BA degree because of various life issues, and then another four to get his MA. He has witnessed some tremendous changes in higher education during those years.
Kevin has worked for over three years as an American public school substitute teacher and two years in Chinese universities.
Kevin has had a lot of experience from the University of Knock'm Hard'm. He has discovered that he can gain as much wisdom from a homeless person as he can from a Harvard-graduated Rhode Scholar professor, if not more. Life is the best school in town, even if it does not translate into pieces of paper recognized as a "diploma." That is one of the reasons private industry relies upon independent certifications more than it does upon college degrees. He can go on and on concerning those issues…
Kevin has written over 40 blogs and articles ranging from 300 to over 900 words about various topics in ophthalmology, optometry, and urology.
Kevin has had extensive experience in business, including both entrepreneurial and standard business models. He also has personal experience in accounting, IT, and sales.
Having lived in two Asian countries for over ten years, he has seen various business cultures that most Americans would never imagine. The juxtaposition of international trade and economics fascinates him as well.
Kevin had worked in the IT industry on a professional basis until the dot-com economic crash in 2001. He took his first programming class in APL on an IBM-360, purchased his Osborne II computer in 1979, and built his first computers starting in the mid-1980s. He also had studied many different programming languages in the past and Certified Novell Engineer curriculums. His specialty was working with different kinds of operating systems, ranging from DOS 3.0 up to Windows 10, various flavors of Apple's over the decades, Unix, Linux, Solaris, HP-UX, within English, Chinese, and other languages. His breadth of experience was fantastic to support programmers in the pre-dot-com crash days, yet the extent came at the cost of not being deep enough in any one of those systems to remain in the industry.
For writing general audience articles and blogs, Kevin finds today's cloud-based computing concepts easy to do.
Kevin's whole life, in one way or another, has centered upon the issue of communication and the transference of knowledge. His teaching experience, his volunteer work with the Amateur Radio Emergency Services, his fluency in Mandarin Chinese, and both his BA and MA degree subjects, all reflect his passion for communication. It could even be argued that his IT specialty, which was computer internetworking, is also another form of communication.
Articles give accurate details about a subject, refer to authoritative sources, and engage the reader to the last word. Kevin has written articles related to medical, health, finance, insurance, STEM subjects, information technology, education, and business. He loves to write!
