For sixteen years, I taught special education classes primarily to high school students with learning disabilities and emotional issues. I have taught in all four core areas, but am most comfortable in the English and social studies areas. I tutored for the past four years at an alternative high school designed for students who need a smaller environment to succeed. I enjoy tutoring because it allows me to develop a rapport and trust. Additionally, I get a sense of accomplishment when I see students succeed in areas they were doing poorly in. I feel like I am making a difference in their lives.
Before teaching, I worked in the communications and marketing area where I worked on advertising and marketing projects. I was responsible for writing at a professional level. Upon entering the teaching profession, I regularly shared my background and expertise with my students. In addition, I love to read and discuss books on many topics -- both fiction and non-fiction. Books are important to me.
