Well, simply put, teaching, education, and continual learning is definitely my chosen way of life!
TEACHING:
I've taught for 21 wonderful years in a variety of classroom settings including special education, 3rd, 4th, & 5th grades.
Educational Philosophy: See blog page
I LOVE teaching because it's an art to develop the whole student while teaching the CCSS (Common Core State Standards) through learning individual likes, dreams, and talents. It is a highly challenging, yet extremely rewarding job.
EDUCATION
I enjoyed earning 4 educational degrees within 3 different colleges. They are Western Michigan University, Central Michigan University, & Northern Michigan University; in general ed., special ed., master teacher, & Education Specialist in Administration and Supervision.
HOBBIES & FAMILY
Hiking, playing tennis, baking, traveling (actual and/or through e-readers, sites, and blogs), reading, designing things, & bargain hunting. I have a wonderful husband, teenage daughter and son.
