About the store
I have five children of my own. All are married and the grandchildren are beginning their learning processes. Teaching is a third career for me--my chosen career <3
After 9 years of substitute teaching, I acquired my teaching degree, specializing in mathematics. I have been teaching middle school math since 2007 for ELLs and students from low socio-economic homes in the Chicago suburbs. After school, I teach the IMSA FUSION inquiry/STEM program (since 2009) for students interested in math and science exploration beyond the scope of learning in the classroom.

Teaching style
My teaching style stems from relationship-based education with a strong emphasis on real-world applications, STEM, and PBL activities. I know that children remember their learning best when they can explore and the teacher implements Bloom's Taxonomy (higher order thinking and questioning) while consciously embedding as many of the multiple intelligences in each lesson, as possible.
As a teacher, I live for the "Ah-ha" moments!
