About Me

Everyone can learn, just not on the same day or in the same way. This quote by George Evans is the reason I became a teacher after obtaining my degree from the University of Northern Iowa. I did not have a traditional teaching background. I have been exposed to a variety of learning environments not only in the United States but around the world. I served a a civilian contracted worker with the U.S. military as I served in Japan and Germany. These experiences shape how I teach a variety of students. I choose to understand that student's were designed with creative minds as creative beings. The determent of any mind is not understanding the knowledge obtained. I believe that through knowledge we can overcome differences, expand our experiences, and create possibilities for future generations that we do not have today. I choose the serve my clientele by partnering in their learning. I am not their friend but I am an advocate and an ambassador to usher them into a positive learning experience. I love learning and continue to learn by finishing a degree in administration and supervision as well as educational technology. I have recently began focusing on health and fitness through the ministry of coaching so I have been afforded the opportunity to help start and athletic program. It is my desire to continue to use my teaching skills as I shift into this new role. My primary subject knowledge is in Kindergarten Readiness as the skills and knowledge needed for Kindergarten success has changed. While I can tutor in any elementary subject, I enjoy teaching math and science. In my free time I enjoy traveling, reading, fitness, coaching and sharing time with others close to me.
