Work With Me

As an educator for over 10 years in 4 countries, I value quality teaching that prepares students for the world that they will live in – wherever that may be. In my own classroom, I work to create hands-on activities that are differentiated, build academic vocabulary, and incorporate technology.

With a Masters of Education in Curriculum and Instruction, I’ve researched best practices and subsequently completed several action research projects in my own classroom on best teaching practices.

As a classroom educator and presenter on best practices and SIOP, I share my experiences and researched ideas so that teachers can immediately begin ideas shared in my sessions.

With the goal of inspiring, entertaining, and helping my readers, this blog chronicles my classroom adventures, daily thoughts, and musings on teaching.
