     Philosophy of Education

      I believe that all students are capable of learning. I know that students learn in different types of environments and it is important to use different types of learning strategies to try to reach all students. I believe that learning is important to a person’s life and it relates to how a person will live out that life.

 

Introduction:

       I have been a math teacher for 21 years. This will be my 10th year at Anderson-Shiro Jr High. This is the best district that I have had the pleasure to teach in. I wish I was teaching here when my kids were in school. I am a mother of three girls and a grandmother of 5 grandkids, and one on the way, which are the light of my life. I enjoy gardening, quilting, action movies, working on cars and spending time with family.
