about me
In 2009 I started working as a history teacher in Detroit
and I have been in education ever since
in 2023 I moved to Germany, where I currently work as a freelance language teacher
Discussions have always been a big part of my teaching style, especially now that I teach English and communication
and although teaching a language is different from teaching history, I do find one thing both funny and ironic...
in German, the word for history is the same as word for story, Geschichte
I love history, and think that everyone has a story to tell, so... what's your story?

Testimonials
From a student in a Student Success and Career Decision making course:
Scott was an amazing professor. He's not actually a professor, he's a tech guy at Schoolcraft that sets up the curriculum for professors but he took up the opportunity to become one. I am sl glad I was in his first class he had ever taught. He is so amazing and so caring. He gve us all his business card so he can keep in touch with us. So caring!!!!
From a professor I helped transition to online teaching, spring 2020:
I must compliment the work of Scott Davis.
When we switched to remote courses at the beginning of the pandemic, I got extremely nervous. Not being technology-savvy, I was sure I would have insurmountable problems with finishing the semester with my course, etc. I went into the office for the help which was available & fears were almost immediately allayed because of Scott. He talked me through the initial stuff & patiently answered my questions, which were many. He later met with me by Blackboard's Collaborate so that I could ask questions & try out the platform. This was of enormous value! I credit him with helping me finish the semester.
More folks are needed -- particularly in technology -- like Scott! I work with another institution as well and, in my experience, he is one-of-a-kind. Professionalism, patience, teaching ability, nuance knowledge, are just a few areas which come to mind when I consider his contribution!
From a Subject Matter Expert in building an accredited program:
Working with you and Dianne in creating the Pharmacy Tech program has been the high point of my time at Schoolcraft. Thank you so much!
