教師の専門知識と資格
学士号 Northwood Universityから
I’ve spent over 15 years in education, including the past nine years working closely with homeschoolers, co-op learners, and small group classes. My passion is helping students grow into confident, thoughtful readers by building skills like comprehension, annotation, and critical thinking—all in a way that’s engaging, encouraging, and fun.
I specialize in working with diverse learning styles, including neurodivergent learners such as students with ADHD, autism, or executive functioning challenges. My goal is always to create a classroom where all students feel successful, supported, and empowered to participate, no matter their reading level or experience.
I’ve taught a wide range of subjects including English, History, Book Clubs, Personal Finance, and STEM-based courses, but literature is my first love—especially when it comes to helping students connect personally to what they read. Whether we’re exploring themes, analyzing characters, or having a great book discussion, I strive to make reading both meaningful and accessible.
In my book clubs, I guide learners beyond surface-level comprehension, encouraging them to ask deeper questions, make inferences, and talk about the big ideas behind the story. I believe middle school is a critical time to help students build these skills—and to show them that reading can be both powerful and enjoyable.
