Experience

Teaching style

I really like using products that provide immediate feedback. That way I can find out right away which students need more help and I can assist them immediately. I try not to use worksheets. I would rather turn the basic worksheet into a pixel art, boom cards, scavenger hunt, task cards, whodunnit, or other fun assignment.

Awards & shining teacher moments

My students consistently score high on state tests. I was awarded the teacher of the year for the 2022-2023 school year for my school and the county where I teach.
