Teaching Strategies
I love being a teacher! I have a Master's in Special Education with an emphasis in Early Childhood Education (ECE) from Arizona State University. (Go Devils!)
My passion is to support educators through sharing resources and providing coaching services to empower them to design and lead brilliant learning experiences.
My story...
I love teaching! It is my calling. But my journey didn't start as a little girl playing school with her dolls. No. I was not a fan of school. It was boring, and I never connected with my teachers. Some I disliked so much that I would choose to be a challenge in class by talking and distracting others. I was a disengaged learner; I went through the motions of school because that was what I had to do. Until I went to college. I took an educational psychology class and fell in love with it! I was hooked! I realized school didn't have to be disengaging, tedious, and confusing. NO! It could be interesting, creative, and FUN!
Over my 20 years in teaching, I have studied deeply about the art and science of teaching and learning. My mission has always been to be the best teacher I could be for the most challenging learners in my class. I've learned that it takes more than subject matter expertise or a toolbox of effective teaching strategies. Yes! Those are essential, but it takes more! Brilliant teaching is about connecting, engaging, and inspiring learners by embracing the three secrets – resilient mindsets, collaborative & compassionate relationships, and clear structure and organization.
My goal is to support You in elevating your teaching to pure BRILLIANCE!
