TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I have taught kindergarten for 12 years.

MY TEACHING STYLE

Very structured management style with a variety of teaching methods to reach all learning styles.

HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT

I am rewarded every day with being allowed to work with such wonderful boys and girls! Then there are all the hugs and "I love you's" that make my day even better!

MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY

Bachelors in Early Childhood Education and a Masters in Reading Education

ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

I am a wife and mother to three boys and have been a kindergarten teacher for most of my 15 year career all at a federally designated low-income school with a high Hispanic population. There may be challenges, but my school's students do as well or better on state mandated testing than other schools in our area with fewer challenges. I can't imagine being at a better school or working with better people, and my kindergarteners are so much fun and so eager to learn that I can't imagine being anywhere else.
