Why Should You Take Advantage Of This?

With nearly fifteen years in education, as an elementary teacher, assistant principal, then later adjunct professor, and now speaker and author, not to mention homeschooling mom of two growing boys, I am passionate about teaching elementary-age children and helping provide much-needed resources (and encouragement) to teachers, homeschoolers, and professionals in the field of education.

I desire to teach children in such a way that they find the lessons and activities meaningful and worthwhile. Which to paraphrase Brophy (1987), “the ultimate goal as instructors is that our students grow from our instruction.” I believe that by giving teachers the tools to provide differentiated, individualized instruction to students of all ages, instructors can meet the preferred learning styles of each of our students. By tapping into each student’s learning style and differentiating our instruction and activities, we create classrooms that allow for, encourage, and nurture an atmosphere that helps enable students to hone and develop skills as well as master the content learned.

When educators create interactive, hands-on, intuitive instruction in classrooms, we create and strengthen bridges into developmental learning.

One step further, these bridges lead to larger learning communities, learning communities that serve to engage with and encourage parents, homeschoolers, and anyone in education, especially during the ever-important, informative, elementary years.

And ultimately, I believe, in creating and nurturing student-centered classrooms, that provide opportunities and life-skills to help set students up for success.

Meanwhile, when not teaching, I also enjoy writing and finding moments of laughter in life. My husband and I live in Florida and have two children, a German Shepherd, one hamster, four chickens, and a cat.
