TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I've taught grades Pre K through 3rd grade and have served as a Literacy Coach and an Instructional Coach. Some of my time was also spent as the director of my church's school aged children's program. Right now I teach ESL in an online setting and I am currently serving in the toughest teaching position of my life as a homeschool mama!

MY TEACHING STYLE

In the classroom, I always tried ensure active engagement in every single aspect of my lessons and also tried to use creativity and choice to help motivate my students. I implement these same features in my homeschool lessons but with even more freedom and flexibility to meet the needs of my own children!

HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT

My kids say I'm the best teacher ever and that's enough for me!

MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY

I received my B.S. in Elementary Education from Methodist University and then earned M.A. in Curriculum and Instruction from the University of Phoenix.

ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

When I was in third grade, I announced to my teacher that I was going to be a teacher just like her. I have never wavered from that declaration and even though I'm not a teacher in a traditional setting right now, I know that teaching and learning will always be a part of my days.
