About the store
Experience
I have taught math at the junior high level for the past 10 years.
Teaching style
I am a big fan of differentiated learning. When I first learned about this style of teaching in university, I immediately thought this would take too much time and would not be worth my while to differentiate my instruction. Within my first year of teaching, I realized how necessary this process was. The students I taught had mathematical skills ranging from grade 2 up to the grade level of grade 7. I spent the next 10 years of my career developing resources and adapting work so that all students could find success in my classroom.
My own education history
Teaching was not the career path I had thought I would have chosen when I was younger. I had always imagined myself as a scientist developing cool robotic gadgets, or pursuing a career as an engineer. As fate would have it, I ended up getting nudged into the field of education and am I ever glad I did. I have found so much joy and encouragement working with students every day. Getting to be a part of their journey as they grow and learn will stay with me as long as I live.
