I am a storyteller by nature, and I believe teaching--regardless of the subject-- is storytelling at the core. Instead of tales of fantasy and fiction, however, these are stories about how the world works. Students like working with me because of my ability to communicate information in a way that they can understand (i.e. I tell the story they want to hear). I enjoy swimming, being outdoors, and pets.

Children have taught me to open my mind and my heart to the joys, the innocence, and the diversity of ideas in the world. Because of this, I will never forget how to smile with the new, cherish the old, and laugh often.... Communicate with the parents and...
