INSTRUCTOR PROFILE:
I am a veteran teacher with over 20 years of experience working with students from grades 2-12. I hold degrees in Special and Elementary Education. I was raised in Phoenix, and have raised three children here of my own. I like to travel whenever I can, but when I’m home, I enjoy being with my family, friends, and a small army of pets.
I’ve spent most of my career working with students with executive functioning challenges, learning disabilities, emotional disabilities, and mild intellectual disabilities. I have been a trainer for other teachers in Crisis Prevention for over 10 years, and I am my district’s science curriculum lead for special education.
Building relationships is the key to any successful teaching practice. Getting to know who a child is, along with their strengths and challenges, is essential for creating a successful teaching partnership. It is imperative that students know they are valued and that their teaching partner genuinely cares about them and their success.
I did an internship overseas, and I have been to 18 countries, but I would like to add many more to that count!
For Peak, I offer support for K-8 ELA, K-6 Math, K-8 Science and Social Studies, and K-12 Executive Functions.
