RESUME, PHOTO, & SAMPLE STORY

          My name is Richard Jewell. Please call me "Richard" or "Mr. Jewell"--whichever you like.  Click here to see a photo of me or to view my resume.

          I am a full-time "unlimited" (tenured) English Department teacher at Inver Hills Community College.  I also run the Student Success Day (SSD) program and am the lead co-advisor of the college's chapter of Phi Theta Kappa (PTK) International Honor Society.  

           I particularly enjoy writing and the humanities, and I used to be a free-lance writer for national, regional, and foreign magazines.  (Click here to see a Christmas story of mine that was published.)  My love of teaching and of writing are the two main reasons I teach writing.  I have taught a wide variety of college and university writing, literature, and humanities courses since 1983 at the University of Minnesota, at St. Cloud State University, and in the community college system.  Some of the courses other than composition that I have taught are literature, creative writing, business and professional writing, study skills, the humanities, philosophy, world religions, and critical thinking.  The teaching of writing is my main field and first love, with humanities and literature close behind.

          When I am not teaching, I'm usually busy writing additional online class materials, working on my online textbooks, or preparing topics and articles for publication or presentation.  I also like movies a lot, both literary and high drama, and I read quite a bit: the Star Tribune every morning, a little each night of a novel (often detective suspense or stories of Africa), and academic articles and essays in summer and during vacations.  I also enjoy crime drama and science fiction on television, such as Law & Order, CSI, Criminal Minds, and Stargate

          My wife and I try to eat supper together and talk for awhile each night, and we go out to dinner about once a week, usually to an Asian restaurant in the Nicollet Ave./Uptown/West Bank/East Bank areas near us in Minneapolis.  We go to art films and movies once or twice per month, and to the Guthrie or other theaters  (we especially love Shakespeare) perhaps two or three times per year.

          Remember: if you have any questions at any time during the course, please feel free to email, call, or write.  Check my email address to contact me, or call me at home 9 a.m.-9 p.m. at (612) 870-7024.
