I have been a full-time teacher for more than 25 years. I have taught everything from Kindergarten to Grade 5. My background is in Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies as well as Learning Assistance.
I love watching "the lightbulb go on" for those children who are struggling. My greatest joy is when children are having so much fun they don't realize they are learning. I have a "No Fun" rule in my classroom, which my students love breaking everyday!

I have just finished a Graduate Diploma in Indigenous Education and Reconciliation. I have extensive experience integrating Indigenous education into my classroom. I graduated from Simon Fraser University (British Columbia) with a BA majoring in English and minoring in Learning Disabilities. I then completed my teacher training at the University of British Columbia and received my BEd.
