Experience

I have taught in a middle school setting for twenty years. I have taught the subjects of Science (Earth Science) and Social Studies (Ancient Cultures) for ten years. The last 10 years I have transitioned into Math and Reading by being our schools RTI teacher.

Teaching style

I have very loud and energetic. I always tell people I do not teach, I entertain. I like when kids are engaged in the lesson and are collaborately working together.

My own education history

I graduated from Eastern Illinois University with my BA in Elementary Education with a Middle School Endorsement.

Additional biographical information

Majority of my items are simple worksheets to break down the math in a relatable way to my struggling learners.
