TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I have taught third, fourth and fifth grades. In a previous life, I was a research scientist but after I had children of my own and spent some time volunteering in the classroom I knew what I was truly meant to do!

MY TEACHING STYLE

I strive to be a teacher who inspires children to want to learn. I want children to wonder and question the world around them and to have the tools to find those answers. My classroom is full of activity where children learn to work cooperatively and independently - I try to do as much discovery and hands-on learning as possible. In my class, prepare to work hard, get your hands dirty, be actively involved and be able to break out into a song (and a dance)!

HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT

I am honored to be selected to attend the Mickelson ExxonMobil Teachers Academy in Jersey City, NJ July 2015! It's a dream come true!

MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY

B.S. Biology and Natural Sciences - Muhlenberg College M.A.S. Cosmetic Science - Fairleigh Dickinson University Educator Preparation Institute - Santa Fe College

ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

I love to play on the beach, travel, cook, and READ! :)
