Teacher expertise and credentials
Welcome! I am pleased to teach life skills and business education classes through Outschool and look forward to connecting with all types of learners. I am a mother of four, and all four of my children have unique learning needs. We do (or have done) it all from public school to private Christian school, to homeschool and hybrid learning (a mix of homeschool, public school and virtual). I believe that the best learning method is the one that suits your child's needs in that season of life.
I enjoy teaching and mentoring. I have a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and Marketing Management; I am also two semesters away from graduating with a Master in Business Administration. Additionally, I have 27 hours in a graduate teaching program. I changed my graduate degree from Master of Art in Teaching to Master in Business Administration (who changes their major in graduate school the semester before graduation?!).

And to add something fun and personal to all of the seriousness above... I absolutely LOVE squirrels!
