I have taught in the classroom and homeschooled for over 30 years. I graduated from a 4-year liberal arts program with a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education and a Minor in History. I am passionate about English, reading, and math in my teaching. I want to open the worlds of English, reading, and math to children and adults. When you read a book, you may go anywhere in the world. My dedication to teaching math stems from wanting students to have the ability to succeed in their endeavors. Unfortunately, I believe that we have lost our direction in this area. Children can no longer count money or multiply. We need to get back to the basics.
I have taught both in the classroom and in homeschool, teaching from K2 through 12th grade, plus 3 1/2 years at a small private independent college over their education program. I am very dedicated to the skill of reading. I believe that it is the one area that everyone needs to be successful at because if you can read, you can complete math, science, history, spelling, etc. If you cannot read, it affects every aspect of your life. I am a firm believer in the 4 R's of education: reading, writing, arithmetic, and research. The complete classroom elements must be taught to be well-rounded academically, mentally, spiritually, and physically.
My teaching experience is as follows:  Advanced K5; 1st through 6th-grade phonics, reading, and math program; 5th grade all subjects; 7th through 8th-grade math, Algebra I and II, Consumer Math, Geometry, Speech, Typing, Shorthand, and Spanish I; 7th - 12th grade English and Speech; Remedial College English, College English 101 & 102, History of Civilization 101 and 102, American History 101 and 102, and American Government 101 and 102. In addition, I taught for 3 1/2 years at the college level for a small college as the director of their education department. 
I have already taught a remedial Algebra I class and a Consumer Math course, and I am presently teaching several sections of Remedial Math 102: Mastering the Fundamental Concepts and Intermediate Math course.
