Tom Hoffman joined the HMS family and is teaching sophomore and senior English,
in addition to AP Composition. He is also coaching wrestling. Before graduation from I.U.S.B. with a degree in English eduacation, Mr. Hoffman served in the United States Marine Corps and worked as a child support debt collector for several years. He jokingly says, "that is why I'm still single." Although learning to read before kindergarten, Hoffman struggled with what the doctors labeled "delayed motor functioning" and hyperactivity, now identified as ADD. Struggling early on as a student directed his career choice and helped to develop his teaching philosophy that anyone can succeed if they try hard and are given both direction and an outreaching hand from their elders. When Mr. Hoffman is not in his room, he enjoys cooking, playing basketball, fishing, pyrography, writing poetry, political science and reading. |
