About Me

Experience Summary

I have taught PreK, Kindergarten, elementary and middle school for over thirty nine years. I have taught in different school districts in Texas both public and private. I have enjoyed this experience tremendously because I truly believe in the impact it can have on a child. The opportunity to work with a child is a responsibility worthwhile.

Teaching Style

I believe in flexibility. I am a true believer of the old adage: "If a child doesn't learn the way we teach, then we have to teach the way he/she learns. I firmly believe that when given the opportunity any child can and will learn.

My Hobbies

My hobbies are reading, watching old western films, camping, going to the beach, going to Farmer's Markets, attending crafts and arts shows/exhibitions, visiting interest parks, museums, other attractions. I also enjoy gardening and making seasonal floral arrangements.
