Teacher expertise and credentials
After serving as a Captain in the Air Force, receiving a master's degree in computer science, and working in middle management positions, I discovered my love for teaching. The subsequent 12 years have been incredibly rewarding. Advanced degrees are supported by certifications in ESOL, Reading, Special Education, and General Education through middle school.
In my classrooms, expectations are high, but so is responsiveness to the different learning traits of each student. I strive to create an inquisitive classroom where scholars are motivated to ask and answer questions and discover solutions without being told everything. New concepts are linked to existing skills and knowledge to boost understanding and retention. And the goal is not just academic growth; it is guiding a student to develop the confidence to confront and master any academic challenge, now and in the years to come.
Outside of the classroom, my interests are reading, travel, and playing chess. I am also making good progress in learning Spanish to support students who are Spanish speakers.
My education and diverse background have equipped me to provide an educational experience that is relevant, effective, and motivating for each student.
