I have been a Special Education teacher for 15 years and I've taught every subject at the High School level. I decided that I wanted to become a teacher after I spent a year in AmeriCorp. I taught GED and job training courses at a women's center in Baltimore City. I saw first hand how powerful and education can be. I have my B.A. in History and a M.A. in Special Education. I have taken extra College courses in Math to become highly qualified to teach Math. I have taken two Master's level Physics courses to work towards my Physics Teacher certification. Last summer I took the Virginia Council on Economics Education course to familiarize myself with the content on the WISE exam. I enjoy teaching Math, Science and History. I try to incorporate real world examples into my course content so students can relate to the information they are learning.
