Having taught US history and Spanish for 12 years, I transitioned to being a curriculum specialist for over 5 years. My focus shifted to helping fellow teachers discover resources that match their curriculum and boost student mastery. It's been quite a journey from the classroom to this role, and I'm all about supporting educators and students in a meaningful way!
My teaching style? It's all about getting hands-on and interactive. I want students to be excited and engaged while they learn. I'm a big fan of weaving social studies skills into everything we do – that way, they not only grasp the facts but also learn to think logically and deeply. A classroom's a place where curiosity rules, and we're all about exploring together. The goal? To make sure students not only understand the subjects but also pick up real-world skills that stick with them.

Howdy! I'm Tori, a history enthusiast from Texas. College life saw me diving into the world of history and Spanish, and I even took it a step further with a master's degree in curriculum and instruction.
When I'm not busy shaping the education scene, you'll find me soaking up the Lone Star State vibes. But if you ask me about my favorite US city, it's gotta be Boston – there's just something about that wicked awesome historic charm that gets me every time. Join me on this journey of learning and discovery!
