I have taught many different subjects and disciplines, including Elementary-all subjects in 3rd, 5th, and 6th grades. I have also taught Spanish grammar and conversational Spanish for several years. I have even taught outside of the classroom as a horseback riding instructor. Teaching has always played a prominent role throughout my life. Whether it is in the classroom, horseback riding arena, or at home, I thrive on helping others to improve. That is my passion and my life. I love to help my students to improve and to help them to have fun. Learning needs to be fun and interesting to the student. If it is fun and interesting, then they will have the desire to improve and to have a passion for learning throughout their lives. That is my goal: to empower my students with the love of learning, to take chances, and to enjoy it!
