TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I started teaching 23 years ago after spending a few years in the newspapering industry. I spent 8 years in second grade and the rest of my time in fourth and fifth grades. I have been a reading and writing consultant for about 10 years. I have also held many leadership positions within my school and district.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I consider myself a holistic teacher who aims to provide students with multiple experiences that include all the learning modalities.
