I have a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology with a minor in Chemistry from the University of Mississippi. I am dedicated and plan to further my education at the Master’s level. My undergraduate career consisted of many hours of numerous subjects such as Math (Algebra-Calculus II), Chemistry, Biology, Psychology, Etc. Being a college graduate, I am also very skilled in the fundamentals of reading and writing. Since I graduated I have been working as a Behavior Consultant for children with developmental disabilities. I worked one on one with the children as well as designed functional behavior assessments and plans in order to increase their performance at school. I love to work with children of all ages and all intellectual abilities. My degree in Psychology has a strong basis in Behavior Analysis. This is what I will be getting my Master’s degree in starting in the Fall. My teaching style m

Because I am a very patient and detail oriented person, I feel it is best to adapt my teaching style to the student's learning style. I would first make that evaluation to determine how best to approach teaching the student. I enjoy using hands-on examples and Powerpoint presentations in teaching. I feel that one-on-one interaction will always help a child gain knowledge of a subject. I have a BS in Environmental Science with a Chemistry minor. I also have a MS in Environmental/Soil Science. As a NASA scholar and Research Assistant, I taught undergraduate students Soil Science Lab Classes. I have tutored Elementary level reading and writing as a volunteer. I have also tutored Middle School level Math to several students. I am a substitute teacher in Louisiana and I am currently working on my teacher certification.

At Faulkner I currently teach biology and at ITT Technical I teach an integrated science class which involoves physics, chemistry, and biology. I love teaching. My style depends upon whether I am teaching a class or one on one. I like to utilize worksheets and or hands on experiments depending on the subject matter.

I enjoy working with children of all ages. It is the duty of the teacher to meet children where they are and help them develop skills in their unique learning style. Learning should be interesting; an exploration of their world. I am patient, kind and enjoy encouraging children in their potential. Every child can learn, it is my goal to give every student the best education and enrich their lives in the process. I graduated from the University of South Alabama with an Elementary Education degree in December of 2005. During this time, I completed my student teaching at Holloway Elementary School. During the year of student teaching, I learned to work with diverse learning styles, varying stages of development as well as a multitude of learning tools.
