READ 0099 (Learning Support Reading) Biography Peter Gareis is the son of a redheaded Irish Canadian woman and an
immaculate German New Yorker, yet he grew up in Atlanta, Georgia.
He
earned his Bachelors and Masters in English at the University of
Georgia
with a specialization in grammar and Anglo-Saxon literature. He has
been teaching since 1984, mostly at the college level, but with an
enjoyable two year detour into the high school environment. It was
this
sojourn which attracted him to learning support courses and
instruction.
He was fortunate to stumble into a job at Middle Georgia College in
1992, and he refuses to leave.
Peter and his favorite wife, Mert, have offices across the hall from
each other and still like each other a lot. Together they have three
feral human children: O'Grady (1996), Nicholas (2002), and Susan
Lee (2003). The family lives on 13 acres by a swamp, where they
enjoy indoor and outdoor activities and heavy doses of intellectual
stimulation. In part, this is because Peter suffers from a fascination
with just about everything, but most of it boils down to figuring out how
the world is put together, why it works the way it does, and how
entertainingly absurd it often is.
