TEACHING EXPERIENCE

13 years full-time classroom social studies teacher. 2 years working as an education tour director. 3 years as a substitute teacher.

MY TEACHING STYLE

Social Studies teaches all the things. I am constantly bringing together all of the various fields of study in one classroom. I strive to equip everyone with skills to be successful in life, to be critical and innovative thinkers, to have strong analysis skills, and to have transferable knowledge as I help them to see how interconnected the various fields can be. I want to involve the students as much as possible as they learn the material. I strive to create resources that help students to understand themselves, their community, and the world.
