My background is in Deaf education and ESOL education. I taught Deaf Ed and ESOL K-12 for four years and full time ESOL for the last ten years. I am currently teaching elementary ESOL in North Georgia.
My classroom is full of chants and laughter. I use WIDA tools to plan instruction and scaffolding for English learners, and I support classroom teachers in using these tools as well.
