Welcome to My Des Moines Area Community College Home Page

Tyrone N. Hunt

I am currently the group leader for the Academic Achievement Center and the Zack Hamlett GED building programs at the Urban campus. Before coming to DMACC, I taught for 6 years in the Des Moines school system teaching social studies at Casady Alternative, Meredith Middle School and Hoyt Middle School working with at-risk students. I have been a member of the U.S. Army /Reserves for over 30 years which has provided me with the opportunity to travel overseas to other countries, which I retired from in August 2004.

In the Academic Achievement Center I oversee the scheduling of the adjuncts that provide academic support to full and part- time college students within an open lab environment that allows students to progress at a pace based on ability, interest, needs, and time available for learning.

In the Zack Hamlett building we prepare students for the General Educational Development (GED) tests and instruct students in various subjects to acquire high school credits for graduation.

I enjoy meeting people from diverse cultures; that it is why I enjoy being here at Urban Campus.

I am also the present advisor for the African-American Student Alliance here at Urban Campus.

I enjoy reading, jogging, most anything made of chocolate and my family.
