About the store

Experience

I was teaching 3rd and 4th grade math and science in French at a public French immersion school in Fairfax county Va, Now I teach 1st grade at an all boys public school in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates. I would consider them all ESL learners

Teaching style

I sing a lot and use my undergrad degree of studio art to draw with the students to help tell stories of science and math.

Awards & shining teacher moments

We're teachers, isn't the only honor in what we are doing and the only award is the chocolate around Christmas time. :-)

My own education history

Received my undergrad degree in studio art with a focus in printmaking, photography, and ancient Asian art history. Also a minor in French. Received my Masters in ESL and then later added teaching endorsements in: computer science, elementary education, middle school science, and middle school social studies.

Additional biographical information

I go rock climbing twice a week, I ride my unicycle for my students at the end of the year and I sing the times tables with my students all the time. I knitted my first quilt last year and got my license to drive a motorcycle. I'm trying to learn the violin and I'm taking Arabic classes for fun. I was born in the U.S but grew up in rural Ontario Canada. I really like guacamole and homemade herb breads.
