Experience

I have taught 8th grade English language arts and literature for eight years in a middle school setting, along with integrated science for 5th grade, Earth science for 6th grade, biology for 7th grade, and physical science for 8th grade. During this time, I have also been responsible for creating, establishing, and implementing curriculum in both ELA and all levels of science.

Teaching style

I teach from the heart keeping in mind every student's strengths and weaknesses in order to establish an environment where students feel comfortable and ready to learn. I believe in a hands-on approach in which students can be completely involved in the learning process whether it is during a whole class discussion, independent work, and/or group activities.

My own education history

I have a bachelor's in communication/broadcast journalism with a minor in English. I have a bachelor's in elementary education with a middle school endorsement, focusing primarily in middle school science. I have a master's in teaching and learning and in administration.

Additional biographical information

I am married with four children and I have one grandson who is the light of my life. My passion is to read as much as possible and to one day write a novel.
