Earning an Elementary Education Degree from Central Washington University has prepared me to be the best teacher I can possibly be. After graduating in the middle of the school year I went straight into substitute teaching. This experience has impacted my teaching in a profound way.I was able to have extensive practice with many different elementary grade levels and different styles of learners in a relatively short amount of time. During the past year the experience I had while student teaching and while substitute teaching has given me a foundation to teach all areas of Elementary Education including reading, writing, math, social studies and science. I can’t imagine doing anything else with my life other than teaching elementary children. I love helping children discover new concepts and seeing them accomplish things they never knew they were capable of. I am extremely patient, kind a

Having and pursuing a Masters degree in Education, I am a strong advocate of education. Teaching international students abroad sparked my interest in teaching English as a Second Language.

Furthermore, I taught English Writing 101, 102 and Research Writing classes to vocational higher education students. More recently I taught ESL community college Academic Writing classes. These varied experiences have given me a variety of teaching methods to help students excel in English. I love teaching and working with students of all ages.

I love teaching and working with children. I love English. I love seeing the expression in the eye of a student who finally understands the concepts. I know what it is like to struggle and get frustrated. In Jr high I was tutored in English and math. Once I understood the concepts there was no stopping me. I would love to help your student the way someone helped me once. I am a patient, kind and loving mother. I believe English is the corner stone of education, and the key to future success. Many times a loving teacher, who takes the time necessary, is all a student needs to succeed. As an English major I have always enjoyed and excelled in the field. I was top of my class in high school. I also aided in the kindergarten class. I changed my major in college because I knew English was my calling. I have a Bachelor's degree from Warner Pacific. I enjoyed my classes and did extremely well.

My area of expertise is Mathematics. I have gained extensive mathematical knowledge by earning a BA in Mathematics from the rigorous program offered at Seattle Pacific University.
