Summary
I am a retired teacher of 31 years. It has been my extreme pleasure and honor to be a teacher. I've always taught the little ones (2nd, 3rd, and 4th grade). I enjoyed creating lessons and projects and seeing enthusiasm and excitement in my students’ faces as they worked. I differentiated instruction to ensure success. I focused on developing individual potential and cultivating learning-focused atmosphere. I really miss it
