Dear students,

My name is Molly May, and I am a full-time instructor at Monterey Peninsula College.

Like many of you, Monterey is not my original hometown. My husband and I moved here twelve years ago from Finland, where we were teaching Business English. I have also lived in France and England, as well as the states of California, Washington, Idaho, and Connecticut. Sometimes I feel as if I have no "hometown" but luckily, I have friends and family all over the world now.

I used to enjoy many hobbies, but now my 10-year old son and 6-year old daughter take up most of my time when I get home from school. However, when I do have free time, I enjoy playing tennis, making candles, cooking, and traveling.

Before becoming a teacher, I worked in the field of international business, so I enjoy teaching business and marketable skills in my class whenever possible. My class goals are to provide you with the tools and skills necessary to read, write and/or speak in a variety of rhetorical modes appropriate for educational and professional applications.
