Summary

After a teaching career spanning 40 years, I retired in June, 2024. I would like to continue to contribute to the public education system by being a substitute teacher.

I am a reliable, knowledgeable, and passionate educator with extensive experience. I am a fair, firm, and friendly teacher with excellent classroom management skills.

I look forward to continuing working with children as a substitute teacher!
