I have been teaching for two full years. I taught one year in Texas (6th, 7th and 8th grades) and one year in Mississippi (6th grade). I grew up and did all of my schooling in Arkansas, so I feel that I am familiar with many different testing systems. I have seen things done in different ways in the two schools that I have been at and have learned a lot working with the diverse groups of children and teachers that I have encountered. I have taken the year off to be a stay at home mommy (my favorite job) and am loving every minute of it!
