After that, I obtained my second degree in Early Childhood, and finally, after having my 4 children, I went back to the University of Missouri, Kansas City and earned my Masters in Curriculum and Instruction. Having taught for 25 years in the public school system, I retired in December of 2018. My jobs included teaching preschool, grades 4/5/6 English and Math, Music K-6, and Art K-6. I started the Gifted and Enrichment program in the public school. As you can see, in a rural community you learn to wear many hats and I can say with confidence that I mastered each and every job that was put on my plate. I have been a mentor teacher for over 15 years and I also tutor children outside of the classroom to help improve their English. Reading and Math. Although I can teach a wide range of subjects, I am most passionate about Reading, Literature, and Math. In my experience helping struggling students prepare for Standardized Tests is most important. When I teach, I like to have fun with remarkable results. My personality and charisma make me someone you will enjoy learning from! I am a firm advocate for education, believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life, and I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, visiting with friends and family, as well as playing with my Great Pyrenees/Poodle! I hope to see you soon!

Helping others, painting, reading, helping my parents, and keeping up with my four grown children and their spouses as well as my darling two grandchildren. Also, let's not forget Miss Liza Jane, My Doodle Helper!
