Ms. Cheryl Morehouse
(Certified Teacher)
I was born and raised in the small community of Geary which is located just outside the capital city of Fredericton, NB. I began my teaching journey in high school when I started teaching private piano lessons to young pianists. I also enjoyed lending a helping hand to my classmates with their coursework. I discovered through these activities that teaching was my passion because I enjoyed seeing the progress made as each topic is mastered. I have a B.A. and a B.Ed. from the University of New Brunswick with majors in Mathematics and French Literature and a minor in Fine Arts (Music).
I continued my love of teaching while attending university through working at the UNB Music Camp as a counsellor and an administrator, working as a tutor at the UNB Math Help Centre, and by continuing to teach piano students. I also pursued music through my study of the clarinet which led me to many solo and ensemble performances and to playing with the New Brunswick Youth Orchestra and the Bathurst Community Concert Band today.
Following university, I travelled to Leeds, England where I taught grades 4 through 12. My first Canadian teaching position was in Gambo, Newfoundland where I taught Mathematics to students from Grades 8 through 12. Wanting to return to my roots and my family, I moved back to New Brunswick, and I settled in Bathurst. I taught Mathematics, Science and Social Studies at the high school and at the middle school here for several years.
While teaching, I pursued advanced studies at the University of Phoenix in Educational Technology and Special Education (Exceptional Learners). This led to joining the New Brunswick Virtual Learning Centre (NBVLC) Distance Education program with the Department of Education and Early Childhood Development (EECD) where I have been since 2016. Here I am primarily teaching mathematics to Grades 9 through 12 students. This position has allowed me to work with students across the province, and Prince Edward Island who are unable, for a variety of reasons, to take these courses in person at their community schools.
I love working with students and seeing the spark ignite when they realize that they can indeed do the subject material. It is rewarding to help a student understand that missing piece of the puzzle because often it is something small that was misunderstood and once that has been remedied, students see success. My colleagues say I have a gift for explaining concepts clearly and concisely and I truly care about my students. I look forward to working with you on your math journey!
