She wrote the curriculum for her limited reading students in her Community Civics class. After “retiring” from high school teaching, she become a professional writer and public relations consultant. Through the years, she has taught writing courses at Harper Community College, Oakton Community College’s adult education program and public relations courses at Roosevelt University. Just as Vicki’s goal has always been to educate her students and her clients, her objective during a speaking engagement is to educate her audience. “I believe it’s important for my audience to ask questions at the end of my presentation,” she says. “When I’m providing an interactive presentation, the audience provides input to help solve the problem.”
