TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I have been teaching math at the secondary level for the last 12 years. I have taught from 6th grade through Algebra 2. I have also been an AVID 9th and 10th grade teacher. Currently, I am teaching 7th and 8th grade, and I am a coordinator for our STEAM Club at my current middle school.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I am a humongous fan of AVID Interactive Notebooks and use them on a daily basis. I am also trying to incorporate more technology into my classroom as well as more hands on labs that students can learn from their own experiences.
