TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I have taught a variety of grade levels for 17 years in diverse communities.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I prefer to integrate student led learning along with teacher led learning. I find it best to teach students first as a whole and gradually release responsibility to each student. I strive to make every minute count academically! I have also found it important to keep up with the curriculum; however, still allowing the kids to have fun learning!

HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT

Yet to be added

MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY

Completed coursework at University of Alabama, Huntsville and graduate of Northern Illinois Univeristy

ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

I enjoy learning about space sciences. Originally I was going to school for aeronautical engineering. At that time, I went to Space Camp for adults in Huntsville, Alabama. However, it was then that I changed my major to Education when I saw how much of the information I was learning could be implemented in an elementary classroom!
