About the store
I initially began teaching as a high school teacher of 11th and 12th graders. After about three years of that, I realized that though I loved the subject matter, that age of students was not for me. I never in a million years thought I would be an elementary school teacher, until I began tutoring part-time in an elementary school close to home, and I was hooked. I know it sounds crazy, but I love my 9-11-year-olds! I truly have a passion for helping nurture and develop these children into responsible children who will grow into responsible contributors to society.

Experience

I never in a million years thought I would be an elementary school teacher, until I began tutoring part-time in an elementary school close to home, and I was hooked. I know it sounds crazy, but I love my 9-11-year-olds! I truly have a passion for helping nurture and develop these children into responsible children who will grow into responsible contributors to society.

Teaching style

I am a passionate and funny teacher who implements visual, audio, and tactile methods to try and get all students involved in the learning process.

Awards & shining teacher moments

Peeler Elementary Teacher of the Year 2014 and 2015.

My own education history

I matriculated through Bennett College as a Bennett Scholar, and received my Bachelor's degree in English. Then I attended and graduated from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro with a Master's degree in English Literature. After realizing college professorship was not for me, I received my education license through the PAL Program at Greensboro College to teach high school.

Additional biographical information

I received my Bachelor’s Degree from Bennett College in English, and my Master’s Degree from UNC-Greensboro in English Literature. During my matriculation, I taught GRE Preparatory as a volunteer for Evangel Felowship Church's Positive Direction for Youth and Family (PDY&F) organization, that provides activities for the youth and families in the community. I earned my teacher licensure from Greensboro College. I have taught high school and have worked in elementary school as a certified tutor and school teacher. I have taught my students that working hard and not being afraid of failure are the keys to their success in any area they pursue.
