My philosophy is all children can learn and motivate themselves. As a mother of two, with over fifteen (15) years teaching experience, my goals for my children and students are for them to become self-motivators, independent thinkers, and crafty innovators who welcome mistakes with open arms and learn from them. I believe my job is to guide them accordingly.
I have a passion for reading, a love for craft and a craving for learning new things and solving mysteries.
