Experience

I taught 7th grade ELA for 14 years. I am entering my first year teaching 6th grade social studies. I am excited for the change!

Teaching style

I believe in trying new things in the classroom. You have to adjust to your students. I did not teach my at-risk students the same way I taught my GT students. I am a firm believer in fairness, but being fair isn't always equal. It's about doing what will help make the student successful.

My own education history

I received my bachelors degree from Winthrop University in Rockhill, SC. I received my masters degree in Integrating Technology from Kaplan University. I am an Apple Teacher and Google Level 1 certified.

Additional biographical information

I am first and foremost a devoted Christian. I am also a wife to Douglas and a mother to Vance and Scarlet.
