Additional biographical information
After many years spent teaching in the classroom, I now have my own tutoring business. Everything for sale from Awesome Teacher Resources has been used with students in my effort to encourage a love of learning as well as mastery of concepts. Often topics for comprehension and essay response packets are student driven as I want my students invested in learning. As well, most of the students I currently work with have learning differences so these worksheets try to incorporate not only the current curriculum but are designed to help accommodate learning differences. I am always open to suggestions and have actually created resources based on requests from buyers.
