Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello there! I really enjoy sharing my love of learning by teaching classes about science (Life Science, Earth Science, animals, and anything related to nature). I also like to teach others to sew and craft. I learned to sew and craft at a young age, and I love sharing that creative outlet with children. I've been reading since I was four, and I haven't stopped yet! Reading opens many doors, and it is so exciting to watch children learn to love to read and become successful readers!
I have been a certified elementary classroom teacher for over 25 years. I also was a homeschool teacher for my own children for 8 years. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in teaching, an Elementary Reading certification, an English as a Second Language certification, and a Teaching Reading as a Foreign Language certification.
As a teacher, I provide a safe, caring, inclusive environment where students are free to learn and grow and have fun! I believe my students can do anything with a little help and encouragement.
I live on a 90 acre working ranch. My husband and I raise cattle, goats, turkeys, chickens, and exotic deer. There is always work to do and mouths to be fed around here!
I am so thrilled to be teaching with Outschool and I am ready to meet my new learners!
