Teaching style

Computer and technology hands on, interactive, engaging lessons while incorporating activities that interest each student's grade level. I also try to incorporate as much "Real Life" lessons as much as possible. My students must approve the lessons that I put on TPT. Lessons have been "proven" by my students by keeping students engaged, interested, and overall enjoying the lessons - thus the name "Proven Computer Lessons"
