My name is Jill and I love to teach. I am currently the owner and operator of Barn Owl Education a private practice for dyslexia therapy. I have taught for over 15 years, and I could not imagine doing anything else.
I graduated with a BA in English with an emphasis in creative writing from Texas Tech University. I graduated with my MA in History from Southeastern Louisiana University in 2014 and my MA in Curriculum and Instruction from the University of Kansas in 2016. in 2024, I recieved my Specialist degree in Dyslexia Therapy from William Carey Univeristy.
I take creative writing classes to keep myself always writing, because that is my one other passion besides teaching. I am certified to teach 1st-5th, but I have also taught college history classes and tutored college English. I strive to always stay current in teaching strategies and the requirements placed on all students.
I am a Certified Academic Language Therapist (CALT), who speciailizes in working with children with dyslexia.
As a teacher, I have taught all kinds of learners and am very adaptable in creating ways to engage students. I must work just as hard as them to make sure I am doing my job as teacher. I am a hands on teacher and enjoy creating fun activities for my students to learn. If I can't sit through a two-hour boring meeting without getting distracted, I can't expect a child to. I will work until I find a way to help my students learn. After all, I became a teacher to help students.
