Class Experience

US Grade 4 - 7
Zookeeper Training Course (ages 8-12)
During this class, students will learn what a typical day in the life of a zookeeper is like. We will discuss the different animals that live in the zoo, what each of those animals is fed each day, the responsibilities the zookeeper has for caring and maintaining a safe and clean environment for the animals and how zookeepers educate visitors about the creatures and their natural habitats. As the teacher, I will take the students on a guided "virtual" zoo tour beginning with feeding each of the animals breakfast. During the tour students will be educated on each of the animals, their eating requirements, natural habitats and interesting facts about each species.

Hello there!
I love teaching students of all ages! I have over 20 years experience teaching students ranging in age from 4 to college level students. I strive to create a fun and engaging classroom where each student is eager to learn and participate. My mission is to make learning enjoyable and memorable. 

My areas of expertise are communications and public speaking, but I love teaching science and animal related courses and helping students work on their reading skills. I currently travel around the country doing test prep classes for high school students.

I also have a passion for teaching younger students how to read. I have my ESL certification, a BS in Communications from the University of Tennessee and a MA in Business Management from Tusculum University.

I live in beautiful East Tennessee with my husband Chris, one bunny, three golden doodles and a yorkie!
