About the store
I am in my 11th year in mathematics education with experience both as a teacher and PK-12 curriculum supervisor. After five years in the classroom, I moved into an administrative role as a curriculum supervisor and instructional coach supporting 60 teachers in their facilitation of mathematics learning from pre-kindergarten through AP Calculus. My heart was pulled back to the classroom, and I am thrilled to be teaching 7th grade, AP Calculus, and Probability & Statistics this year. I have previously taught Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Algebra 3, Geometry, Applications of Mathematics, and an 8th grade state exam preparatory course.

Teaching style

I believe in learning by doing, and my activities are designed for a facilitative model with students taking primary ownership of their learning. In my classroom, student voices are amplified, student brains are at work, and students are up and moving with their learning at the center.
