Hi! I'm Jacey and over the last 7 years I've taught and volunteered with students in more settings than I can count. I pride myself on my flexibility and ability to remain professional no matter what's thrown at me- everyone deserves to learn and that extends far beyond the traditional classroom setting.

Hi! I'm Jacey and over the last 7 years I've taught and volunteered with students in more settings than I can count. I pride myself on my flexibility and ability to remain professional no matter what's thrown at me- everyone deserves to learn and that extends far beyond the traditional classroom setting.
My work in Community Mental Health facilities, various special needs programs, refugee centers, and even aboard a mobile teaching program showed me just how many barriers students of all ages and backgrounds face and made me even more dedicated to break them down.
I have a BA from Michigan State University in Psychology and Fine Arts with a minor in Art History. Believe it or not, these things are deeply intertwined and are understood so much more thoroughly when interwoven with each other. This is a key principle of my teaching practice: it's a lot less boring and overwhelming to weave new pieces into your existing world than to hand you mismatched pieces of a new one off to the side.
When I'm not teaching I spend my time drawing, playing video games, and watching 45 minute YouTube videos about things I didn't even know I was curious about.
I'm excited to get to know you and what you love- I know we can connect it to your U.S. History class somehow. I promise!
