TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I taught fifth grade in private Christian schools until leaving the classroom to stay home with my 3 kiddos. I am now preschooling my toddlers.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I love making learning fun and memorable. I want the students to look back on their year with me as one where they were challenged, stretched, and had their confidence grow because of all they accomplished.

HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT

I was named Teacher of the Year at my school. I received the BrainQuest Teacher of the Month award. On the Praxis 2 for Elementary Education Content Knowledge I scored in the top 15% of all test takers.

MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY

I have a Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education from Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia.

ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

Christ follower, wife, mom to three cuties, passionate upper elementary classroom resource creator, blogger, baker, and crafting enthusiast :)
