Teacher expertise and credentials
I'm a teacher for life! After receiving my Bachelor of Arts in Education, I began my career teaching in a traditional classroom setting. I have branched out to homeschooling my own children, teaching small group classes to homeschoolers, and teaching online classes. I have taught many different subjects to a wide variety of ages . My focus has been on writing, grammar, literature, and rhetoric with a classical approach. I'm a lifelong learner and continue my own education through courses, webinars, workshops, and learning alongside my own children and students. My desire is to help others think and reason well, by reading good books, practicing persuasive writing, and exploring the art of rhetoric. I hope you'll join me!
I live with my husband and three children in the Pacific Northwest. Our family has lived in three corners of the United States; from desert, to tropical, to temperate rainforest. My eldest just graduated and is off to college in the fall. I love coffee, nature, and books!Reviews
