Experience

I'm beginning my 13th year as a middle school math teacher, mostly in 7th (4 years) and 8th grade math (9 years). I'm also lucky enough to teach one section of high school algebra/Integrated 1 each year!

Teaching style

My classroom is student-centered and the expectation is that group work and collaboration will happen every day. I'm not a stand and teach kinda gal and hope to be even more on the side this year as I start Math Workshop for the first time!

My own education history

BS in Liberal Studies from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo MA in Educational Technology from Touro University California I hold both a multiple subjects teaching credential and a single subject math credential.

Additional biographical information

My teaching career has taken me all over California and I have taught an amazingly diverse group of students in the 13+ years I have been in the classroom. After spending four years teaching in the Mission District of San Francisco I landed in beautiful Napa with my husband and three year old son.
