About TLC

Sharing information has been a part of my life since I was a second grader teaching a lesson on hearing loss and my hearing aids to my classmates. My mom encouraged me to teach and share with tender loving care. I later became a teacher for the deaf and hard of hearing in public schools with children of all ages. I loved working with technology and self-advocacy in the schools. A career shift broadened my skills to working with adults of all ages with varying degrees of hearing and vision. I worked with people doing problem-solving which often included teaching with patience, creating personalized instruction guides, as well as high and low-tech approaches. My work required a high level of attention to detail. My skills didn’t fall far in the family tree. My dad and grandfather were both welders and machinists solving problems using metal with great attention to detail. They both owned and operated businesses under a variation of the name Tamco. So when it came time to name my business Tamco came to mind along with tender loving care (tlc). Tamco Learning Creations (TLC) was born. Within TLC I have been able to create classes, remediate digital documents, teach, and be a consultant on all things related to sensory loss. My clients include hearing aid users, their families, businesses, community groups, government agencies, and public schools.
