Teacher expertise and credentials
I am a 14-year veteran history teacher and tech geek. I teach civics, economics, personal finance, and sociology courses. My goal is to help my students fall in love with technology. Learning about technology and history can be an amazing catalyst for changing our society and teaching empathy to our students. It ignites a fire, a desire to learn, and gives them the ability to express themselves in meaningful ways. I am also a teacher trainer and a Google Level 1 and 2 Certified Educator.
