Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Education from United States Institute of Clerical Studies
Hello! I’m Teacher Sheila. 

I’ve been teaching both children and adults for over 20 years. 

I have a Bachelors Degree in education, I’m TESOL certified and I’m homeschool certified as well.

I am currently teaching English online to children in China. I also offer classes in Common Core subjects Online in the US as well.

I have home schooled all five of my children, 4 have graduated 12th grade and I’m currently working with my last kid who will be starting High School this year. 

I am so very passionate about teaching that I even spend much of my free time in volunteer work teaching others. My goal is to instill in my students a lifelong love of learning. 

In fact I believe in learning so much that I am always involved continuing education myself, whether it be in foreign language, improving my teaching techniques and even weekly public speaking classes. 

I believe I have a LOT to bring to the classroom and I’m EXCITED to begin on this journey in learning with you! I hope to see YOU in my classroom soon!
