TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I have been a teacher for 15 years, and an AP European History and AP Government and Politics teacher for 10 years.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I don't want to get too crazy with strategies and games. I like getting good information, giving it to students to think about, then discussing their thoughts, analysis, predictions, etc.
