Teaching style

I am a firm believer in discovery and inquiry lessons. My question at the end of every lesson is: Who Did the Math? If it wasn't the students, it wasn't a great lesson!

My own education history

I have a Ph.D. in Education from Claremont Graduate University.

Additional biographical information

I am the proud Mama of two daughters, both of whom are educators. My greatest joy is spending time with my grandkids!
