Throughout my 32-year career in education, I have had the opportunity to take on various roles, starting as a paraprofessional and later transitioning into a position as a computer teacher. I then served as a technology coordinator before returning to my all-time favorite role as a classroom teacher. My journey in education has allowed me to gain a wealth of experience and a deep understanding of the field, and I am thrilled to be back in the classroom, doing what I love most...teaching ELA!
My teaching style is characterized by energy, innovation, and a passion for project-based learning. I love to integrate technology into my instruction and always strive to teach outside the box. I believe in engaging and interactive lessons that inspire creativity and critical thinking, fostering an environment where students can thrive and explore their full potential.
