Fun Facts
I am a huge outdoors fan! I love to hike, camp, swim, walk on the beach and build creations with sand, or just sit in my hammock and relax. I also enjoy doing arts and crafts and coloring. Yes, I'm a BIG kid that loves to color. Music is a big part of my life as well. I play the flute and baritone and sing in my church choir. My family and I like to play board games and card games together. We are also huge animal lovers! We have 1 dog, 2 rabbits, 2 guinea pigs, 4 turtles, and a betta fish.
About Me
I went to Georgia Southern University and received a bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education with a Minor in Music. After college, I began my teaching career in grades K-5. Recently I got an ESOL Endorsement and a Master's degree from Georgia State University with a concentration in Dual Immersion. Other pieces of training that have made an impact on my outlook are Orton Gillingham, LETRS (Science of Reading), and Kagan (Cooperative Learning).
Experience
For the past 22 years, I have been teaching children in grades K-5. Six years ago, I got my ESOL Endorsement and started teaching ESOL students in my school. In addition to teaching all day, I help struggling students in an afterschool program. During the summers, I work with a summer program called Horizons of Atlanta as a Reading Specialist. I have had many Orton Gillingham Trainings and am in the process of getting Certified.
Approach
I strive to make learning meaningful, fun, and engaging. If students are invested in their learning, they are more motivated and excited about learning. Once you plant that seed, students will run with it and be lifelong learners, problem solvers, and contributing members of society. It is more than just learning the standards; it's giving students the tools they need to be successful. Once they have confidence in themselves, there is no stopping them.
