This experience has allowed me to develop a versatile approach to teaching, adapting my strategies to meet the unique needs of students in various environments. While I've enjoyed teaching second through fifth grade, second grade holds a special place in my heart! My passion for teaching shines through in everything I create.
Teaching style
I believe that meaningful learning begins with strong student-teacher relationships. My "Love first, teach second" approach guides everything I do. My resources are crafted to cultivate self-sufficient classrooms, empowering students to take ownership of their learning and work collaboratively. I strive to create engaging and effective materials that foster a positive and productive learning environment.
Awards & shining teacher moments
• Created and launched a K–6 professional development course on building self-sufficient classrooms.
• Helped teachers empower students to take ownership of learning while simplifying classroom management.
Additional biographical information
I have been a classroom teacher for over 18 years, teaching grades 2–6, and have also served as a behavioral and educational interventionist in math and reading. With my background in both the classroom and intervention settings, I understand the importance of creating resources that are practical, effective, and easy to use. My passion is helping teachers build self-sufficient classrooms where students feel empowered to take ownership of their learning, while simplifying teaching and reducing stress for educators.
