TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I am a home school teacher who firmly believes that solving puzzles helps to develop a critical mind! I've taught my two children from kindergarten through high school. Both my students have now moved on to college, one studying history and the other studying theater! My youngest still helps me edit all the puzzles you find here. We hope that you and your students find them fun to solve! For more info about me and my puzzles, check out my blog!

MY TEACHING STYLE

I used the classical approach to education and followed Susan Wise Bauer's "The Well-Trained Mind", sprinkled with tons of other curricula, activities, and homeschool co-op groups!
