I have been a teacher with District School Board Ontario North East in Timmins, Ontario, Canada for the past 13 years. I taught in a special needs self-contained classroom for 3 years and in a regular classroom for the past 10 years, Grades 2-4. I am currently teaching a Grade 5/6 class at Pinecrest Public School in Timmins.
I love to teach using hands-on materials and manipulatives. I have an active class, that likes to be up and moving.
Yet to be added
I have a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in English Literature and a Bachelor of Education (Intermediate / Senior), both from Nipissing University in North Bay, Ontario, Canada. I also have a specialist in Special Education, Reading Part 1 and 2 and my qualifications in Primary and Junior Education from the Ontario College of Teachers.
I love to travel, bike and take photos. I have visited many corners of the planet and there is still so much to explore. From Mt. Fuji in Japan, to the windmills of the Netherlands, to Blarney Castle in southern Ireland, I have seen a lot!
