Teaching style
I love hands-on activities and integrating technology into the classroom. During these uncertain times, I have striven to find fun and interactive ways to teach virtually.
Awards & shining teacher moments
My "shining teacher moment" was when I overheard a student tell one of my colleagues that I was her favorite teacher!
