TEACHING EXPERIENCE

26 years

MY TEACHING STYLE

The majority of my students need more repetition in order to master our state standards than what is available through our district adopted materials. I develop games, activities, and worksheets with riddles that my students enjoy. Therefore, they are getting the repetition necessary without the monotony of 'drill and kill.'
