Hey there, I'm Cortney, your curriculum companion. In the world of teaching, I'm like that Swiss Army knife you never knew you needed. I've navigated through the realms of education, corporate life, and even served in the military. Here to offer you a well-seasoned blend of wisdom with a touch of humor. Teaching Experience: Staff Training and Development: I'm all about turning the science of training and development into an art form. With a solid educational foundation in the field, my real thrill comes from consulting, crafting, and conducting training that resonates and sticks. My workshops and training sessions are interactive, engaging, and maybe a tad unconventional – that's how I roll. It's not just about sharing knowledge; it's about sparking transformation and growth, both for individuals and teams. Middle School Business (7th-8th Grade): Shaping young minds with business basics and a sprinkle of humor. 9th Grade Financial Literacy: Guiding teens to become savvy savers and wise spenders. Intro to Business (11th-12th Grade): Nurturing aspiring entrepreneurs and future CEOs. High School Accounting: Where numbers are more than just digits – they're the secret language of business. College Lecturer: For 3 years, I was the go-to gal for Intro to PC Applications, Personal Finance, and a unique course in Crop Accounting, where we delved into the wonders of QuickBooks. Because let's face it, even farmers need skilled accountants. Professional Background: With 20 years in the corporate world – think international intrigue meets boardroom brainstorming – I've got real-life business tales that textbooks just can't compete with. Military Service: During my 17 years with the USAF, I honed discipline, leadership skills, and the art of strategic caffeination.
Teaching, for me, is about injecting wisdom with wit and practical know-how. I aim to create thinkers who question, creators who innovate, and individuals who remember to laugh along the way. I am hands on, allow cell phone use in my class and teach students how to use AI. I believe in teaching balance not fear.
