Teacher expertise and credentials
Tennessee Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Hello! Welcome to Outschool, I am so happy you are here. Let me tell you a little bit about myself.
I am a certified teacher currently teaching Reading Intervention. I have over 20 years teaching and tutoring in the public and private school system. I also homeschooled two of our three children. Most of my teaching experience is in middle school English and Math. Teaching is such a beautiful gift for me. I enjoy helping others reach their full potential and watching them grow as they learn. Learning is an amazing adventure and it is one I take daily. I always try to learn new things to challenge myself.
Aside from teaching, I love to read and garden. I stay very busy as the mom of three young adults ages 20, 19, and 16. I also have two very precious dogs. My husband is also a teacher so our evening conversations are typically about school!
My personality and teaching style has always been very laid back and fun. I believe in laughing while learning! Confidence is key when we learn new things or when we are learning difficult things. I practice being a teacher who encourages, nurtures, and builds confidence. Teaching is a heartfelt calling that I do not take lightly. I truly enjoy working with learners of all ages in all subjects.
I hope to see your learner in one of my classes. We will have a blast! Thank you again for being here. Enjoy Outschool, it is a great place to be.
