BIOGRAPHY: Got a thing for writing? Or maybe the thought of writing leaves you weak-kneed and lightheaded? Well, either way, Thomas Baker-- or simply “Bake,” as he’s affectionately called--is the man to meet. His passion for the English language and his knack for stringing together mesmerizing and poetic prose will amaze you. But better than that, he will teach you how to craft your own lucid prose. If you have a story to tell, join him in Art of Autobiography. Or if you’re eager to hone your research skills before college, try Research Composition. Perhaps the thrill of another language suits you better? Baker also teaches German and sponsors tours to Austria. The choice is yours.
PROFESSIONAL ACTIVITIES: Member of National Council of Teachers of English and the American Association of Teachers of German
EDUCATION: BS, University of Minnesota; MA, Rice University; MA, Andrews University; Additional study at Princeton University, Middlebury College, Indiana University and University of Nebraska
