TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I am a 7th grade Reading teacher that is certified through ALTA. I am new, but I love building lesson plans and connecting concepts across content. I have bachelors in Cultural Anthropology as well, and am going to be working towards a minor in Spanish as I try to gain fluency in a second language.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I am incredibly passionate about multiculturalism in the classroom. I also feel that the doorway to a love of reading is to tap into the interests students already have and build off that. I feel literacy is the single most important subject we can teach when it comes to academic success and success outside of the classroom. I strive to focus my lesson plans not just on the books we are reading but how these books connect to the real world and real world experiences.

MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY

I attended Pre-K through 2nd grade at a public school in Florida. I attended a private Lutheran school 3rd-5th grade in Florida. I attended a middle school in Las Vegas, and 9th and 10th grade in a public high school in Las Vegas. I graduated with a 3.7 GPA from a public high school in Kentucky. I attended Murray State University where I studied for a degree in Food and Nutrition I graduated with a 3.0 from University of West Florida with a Bachelor's in Arts and Science with a major in Cultural Anthropology and a certificate in Human Resource Management. I was one class away from a minor in Women's Studies I graduated from an ALTA program to get my teaching license.

ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

I am a huge nerd and because of that I try to incorporate pop culture as much as I can in my teaching. I run Dungeons and Dragons campaigns and would love to find a way to incorporate that into a Reading classroom, though I haven't really come up with a plan for that yet. I am very passionate about including diverse people in our curriculum, not just people of different ethnic groups but also religions, sexualities, gender identities, and people with disabilities.
