I have been a special education teacher in Liberal, Kansas since 1994. I love my job and cannot imagine doing anything else.
My teaching style follows an integrated approach to teaching that blends my personality and interests with students’ needs and curriculum-appropriate methods. I believe that before a child will learn from you, they must first respect, trust and care for you.
