TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I have been teaching for 21 years, 13 of which were in the inner city. Along the way I earned my master's and a specialist's degree. I have conducted several workshops in the Southeast Tennessee area.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I am not an 'in the box' teacher. I enjoy trying new things, but at the same time know that I must document everything I do for the administration. Most of the files I create begin with this in mind.

HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT

I became a mom to the two most wonderful children on this earth! THAT is a REAL honor.
