Throughout my career, I have had many hats--I started out as a daycare director, then taught Middle School Science and Social Studies in the Southeast Asian country of Cambodia, then taught 4th grade in Chicago, which then lead me to teach at a blended charter school as a U.S. History teache...

Last semester, I was a teaching assistant for one of my professors, and I absolutely loved it. I got to work with each student one on one and help them share their ... Read more

I really enjoy giving students the chance to find those "lightbulb moments" of understanding and I try different... Read more
