My greatest passion in life is teaching! I have taught in elementary and middle school classrooms for over 34 years. During those years, I have taught students with learning difficulties as well as students who are gifted and talented. I know it can take a variety of ways to teach a concept. Over the years, I have taught mainly math, reading, and writing. I love seeing a student gain confidence while learning. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Education with a specialization in mathematics from the University of Houston in Texas. I am committed to helping my students learn at their level and building confidence in their abilities just as my teachers did for me.
