About

I will use my 13 years of teaching experience, eight years of university training, and an extensive use of English, writing, and mathematics skills to tell your story in the best way.

Greetings,
My name is Keith Soltman and I am a 13 year teacher in public and private schools in the U.S. and abroad. I started my career working in China at a community college that primarily tailored to engineers from Sinopec. After coming back stateside, I got my post-secondary certification in English Language Arts Education and went into junior high and high school classrooms in the Yakima area of Washington state. My wife and I moved to the Marshall Islands, taught there for a year and a half, then returned home. Since, I have continued teaching English, reading, and writing in Washington State and completed a Masters of Arts degree in Mathematics.
What I bring to the proverbial table:
1. I'm a strong teacher with quite a few years of experience in public and private education. My records speak for themselves when it comes to what and how I teach. Over the course of my teaching experience, I have shown significant successes in mandated state testing for my students with the majority passing regardless of what skills they had at the beginning of the term.
2. As a teacher, my main focus is on instruction of writing - the values of which are shown in my ability to express ideas in language that is both accessible by a wide audience as well as being an engaging way to share information.
3. I bring intentionality to any project. I have always been the type that considers that a project that has my name on it should be done well and as free of errors as humanly possible.
