Teaching style
My teaching style emphasizes student engagement, critical thinking, and real-world connections. I design lessons that combine interactive activities — like debates, simulations, gallery walks, and graphic organizers — with clear scaffolding to support all learners. I believe students learn best when they can do something with the content: analyze a primary source, take on a role in a mock trial, or connect historical debates to modern issues. Every resource I create includes teacher supports, differentiation tips, and opportunities for active learning, so you can feel confident and ready to teach with no extra prep.
Awards & shining teacher moments
Some of my proudest moments as a teacher come when students light up with understanding — whether it’s debating historical “what ifs” in a mock trial, connecting federalism to real-life issues, or confidently citing evidence in their first research paper. I believe in creating those “aha!” moments where complex ideas suddenly make sense. My resources are designed to spark curiosity, give students ownership of their learning, and remind teachers why we fell in love with this profession in the first place.
My own education history
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Political Science with a focus in Comparative Politics and International Law. I studied at St. Mary’s College of Maryland and Towson University, where I also explored related fields including anthropology, sociology, women’s studies, U.S. government, and special education. This interdisciplinary foundation shapes the way I design lessons — connecting political theory and history to broader cultural, social, and legal contexts, while keeping student needs at the center.
