TEACHING EXPERIENCE

Teaching has been a passion of mine from the very beginning. I am blessed to be in my 7th year of teaching. My career has been anything but ordinary and I wouldn't have it any other way. I began my teaching career in a special program looping with an amazing group of advanced students in a Title I school for grades 1, 2, and 3. I am now in my fourth year as a gifted resource teacher in my county.

MY TEACHING STYLE

My belief is that all students CAN learn. Students need to be given the opportunity to find their strengths and build on them. Hands-on learning is critical as students learn best by doing. I love to see students amazed and excited about their accomplishments.

HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT

Yet to be added

MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY

I completed my undergraduate and graduate degrees at James Madison University. Currently I hold a Masters in the Art of Education with a double minor in elementary education and history. During my first years of teaching, I pursued and obtained an endorsement in gifted education.

ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

While teaching is certainly my passion, I also love just living life. In 2012 I married the man of my dreams and we settled in our hometown with what will be our kids for awhile, our two cats. In my free time I enjoy playing sports, spending time with friends and family, and am attempting to take up hobbies such as sewing.
