My name is teacher Angela and I reside in beautiful Colorado, USA. I am currently an online ESL teacher, published author, and former elementary education teacher. I also have a special education degree and have experience raising a significant needs son. Recently, I became an empty nester.

The classes I will offer come from the passions of my heart. Riding horses, making jewelry, traveling, reading, writing, journaling, and covering different aspects of health and self care. I hope to see you in the classroom for our next adventure together. Be Brave and Dream Big!
