About the store
Experience
14+ years teaching public education, 10 of those have been with gifted learners. I have been teaching middle school students since 2001.
Teaching style
I prefer to give students an opportunity to do hands on projects and to produce projects both individually and in groups. My classroom style is more of a manager while the students explore and learn on their own.
Awards & shining teacher moments
Selected as teacher of the year 2 times by two different schools.
I have won over $30,000 in grants in the past 5 years.
