Currently teaching 8th Grade ELA in Title I. Also taught gifted ELA, Science, and Civics.
I teach using direct Instruction, problem-based learning, cooperative learning, and socratic seminar (to name a few!) I love using technology when I can, and have a learner-focused environment.
Yet to be added
Undergrad degree from Saint Leo University in Middle Grades Education with a specialization in Language Arts (2014). Masters Degree from Nova Southeastern University in Curriculum and Instruction (March 2017).
I love teaching and designing curriculum. Most important to me is planning for what is best for the students, having great conversations with them, and finding teachable moments.
