A Little Bit About Me...

I believe all students can learn. Every student has different learning styles and I believe if a teacher can make learning fun, students will remember what that teacher has tried to teach.
I have been a Special Education teacher for 24 years. During that time, I was an Assistant Teacher, with several elementary schools in Mississippi. I was chosen as one of Mississippi's most outstanding teachers, in 1995. That same year, I was chosen, out of all teachers in the United States, to study at George Washington's home in Virginia.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of Mississippi State University, I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education. I had the opportunity to intern in the West Point Public School District where I taught fourth grade and kindergarten. I learned valuable information while teaching that will help me throughout my teaching career such as how to plan and lead effective lessons, how to differentiate instruction, and collaboration to create an creative learning environment.
I believe that each child should be treated as a unique individual and should be taught in the same way. The atmosphere of the classroom should be one that supports the emotional, mental, social, and physical being of a child. Children should be educated in their least restrictive environment where proper guidance is given. I will make sure your child is exceeding beyond his or her expectations to become successful.

My capacity for learning and teaching is unlimited and extensive. I focus more on the students’ cognitive and social skills by making them more attentive and making sure they are able to comprehend the materials that is taught to them. My experience as a Case Counselor requires me to engage with the student who has special needs. I teach them how to interact with others. Next, as a Substitute teacher I am able to keep the children engaged in their work as their Permanent teacher is absent. Lastly, as a certified Biologist I will help them investigate the world associating biological and non biological entities surrounding them.
I received my BS degree in Biology in 2007 and I also minored in Chemistry at Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University. The education that was taught to me, I would like to use this very same tool that sharpened my mind to help the young minds of thos ... read more

For the last past six years I have enjoyed my students. They never cease to amaze me with all the many things that they can grasp when you try. I was an assistant in JPS. Tutoring was my job. I have also tutored other grades up to fifth. I really enjoy kids and I always wish the best for them. I have also had to be the actual teacher for the remainder of the school year and did grades and end of the school year things due to the teachers' emergency leave.
My motto is simple: In all of your getting, get an understanding. I truly belive that every child can learn. Even a child with a disadvantage still comes with an advantage because they are always getting some help. It also depends on the child also. We must both be focused on the task at hand and together we must tackle it until it is thoroughly understood.
