Experience

After beginning my teaching career in a Grade 3/4 split class, I have ventured through many grade levels before settling into Grade 6 for the past several years.

Teaching style

I believe very strongly that students need to be engaged to learn, and they need to feel safe and nurtured if they're going to be expected to take risks with their learning. Each student is a unique individual, and deserves to be treated as such! A fun classroom to be in is a fun classroom to learn in!

My own education history

I graduated from the University of Alberta in 2002, and since then have worked in many different levels of education. I spent three years teaching a pre-school program before moving up into the division one and two levels. Since then, I have worked with grades 3 and 4, and with grades 7,8,9 and 10 math. Primarily, I have worked with Grade 6, and am currently on my 12th year with this grade level.

Additional biographical information

Along with teaching, I am also a published writer. I have published several short stories, along with a Middle-Grade fantasy novel, "Dreamshaper," and a children's illustrated book, "Mr. Pratt's Coffee Mug." Dreamshaper was originally published through Black Rose Writing, and has been re-released as a self-published novel. I also create themed journals and notebooks. All of my works can be found through my website: www.fauphtalkfiction.com
