TEACHING EXPERIENCE

Most of my career has been in 7th - 8th grade English Language Arts I have been teaching 20+ years.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I have a versatile style of teaching. I find it imperative to act as a facilitator while students explore their capabilities, applying their knowledge to be successful in classroom assignments, projects, activities, and meeting expectations. Spontaneity seems to keep my room alive!
