I have been teaching High School Business Education classes for over 25 years. The subjects that I teach are: Corporate America (Business Essentials), Accounting, Marketing, Management, Finance, and Computer Software Classes. I initially went to college to teach Art K-12 and I also have 3 years experience teaching Art to Middle School students.
I believe that a learner will not open their mind to a teacher if they don't like them! I LOVE my students and they know it. I am hands on and believe in project-based assessment and push my students to THINK and form educated opinions. I LOVE Hyperdocs! I LOVE interactive learning! I teach with creative lesson plans that are innovative and FUN! I started on TPT because my students urged to me share my lessons with others because 'other teachers don't do this cool stuff!'.
