Experience
I have a teaching certificate and degrees from the University of Illinois and the University of Arizona. With over 25 years of teaching experience, I have a strong background in education. I focus on Special Education, Reading, Math, and English. My experience includes teaching in an elementary school classroom, coaching math with elementary students, teaching math in middle school, and working in a cross-category resource room and a Title I/Special Ed resource room. I think the most valuable experience I've had was working with students who have special needs in the resource room, as this environment allowed me to evaluate each student's individual needs and difficulties. This initial assessment is necessary in order to then choose the appropriate teaching method and program for the student. I am comfortable using technology in my work, and my students and I get along well. One of my favorite pastimes is doing word puzzles or any kind of puzzles in general. I use puzzles with my students as well, to stimulate them to develop their analytical thinking and reasoning. I also love to read, but I balance this with yoga stretching and Zumba to stay active. Exercise is also stimulating for brain development and learning.
