About
I am not your average English teacher. Although the basics are required, children need to learn how to think critically while also dreaming and believing they can be anything they desire. I am passionate about creative writing and find reading material that match my students. While teaching English, I will also show my students how to have a positive mindset and believe in themselves. I have been an English teacher for 13 years and have my BA in English and a Masters in Reading. Both degrees were earned at Marywood University. I am also a mother of two boys and a veteran of US Army.

Each year I teach a poetry section and submit my students’ poetry into a poetry contest. Every year I have students being published, and each year the numbers increase.
