Two Carolina Girls

I followed my lifelong dream of becoming a teacher in 1978 and have taught Pre-K through 5th grades. I've gotten to start a new kindergarten beginning with an empty room on Daniel Island, I've taught emerging teachers at Hood College while modeling teaching practices at the pre-K lab school there, I taught for 18 years at a Professional Development School of the Arts focusing on learning styles and am presently teaching 2nd grade in a personalized learning school.

My teaching style is a combination of the best practices I have learned throughout my teaching career. Students in my Personal Mastery classroom have voice and choice in their learning activities. While working in their own learning style I encourage them to stretch into other learning styles. The arts are just naturally incorporated into many activities.

Teacher of the month, Nominated for teacher of the year, and Went to the teacher of the year gala twice

I have a B.S. degree with a double major...Early Childhood & Elementary Education with a specialization in Middle School Social Studies. I also have a a Masters degree in Eementary Education plus 60 additional hours past the Masters degree.l

I accomplished another lifelong dream... I wrote a children's book and had it published. Becoming an author on TPT is also a great honor.
