About the store

Experience

I’ve been incredibly fortunate to spend the past 16 years inspiring and educating young minds. Much of my experience has been in inner-city schools, where I’ve embraced both the challenges and rewards of teaching in diverse, high-needs environments. During this time, I served as a lead teacher and the school’s resident educator, mentoring fellow teachers and helping shape instructional practices. I was also deeply honored to be nominated as District Teacher of the Year—a reflection of my dedication to student growth and excellence in education.

Teaching style

I believe students learn best in a safe, supportive, and loving environment. In interviews, I was often asked about my teaching style, and my answer was always the same: “Adaptive.” Teaching isn't one-size-fits-all. Each class—and each student—is unique, and my approach evolved to meet their specific needs. Over the years, I’ve taught classes that thrived on small-group, hands-on activities, others that excelled with independent work, and some that responded best to discovery-based learning. A combination of these methods was often needed to engage every learner. The first and most important step was always getting to know my students—their learning styles, strengths, and gaps in knowledge. From there, I developed individualized strategies to help each student grow, adjusting the plan to ensure continued progress and success.

Awards & shining teacher moments

Nominated for teacher of the year in my district. Having a selective mute student talk to me. A student with an IEP made an extraordinary leap, growing 4 grade levels in just one year. Having multiple classes grow more than two years in class average growth.
