Experience

Eighth grade social studies teacher for 16+ years, I've taught honors, level-one, collaborative, and regular ed., as well as seventh grade. I've also been a volunteer tutor at a residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility for youth ages 12-19.

Teaching style

My daily classroom goal is to aid students to be good citizens, supporting and learning "with and from each other," as they grow toward becoming highly independent, responsible learners.

Awards & shining teacher moments
