Academic Background: BA: English/Speech, MA: Reading/Secondary Education, Arizona State University. Further studies: East Texas State University Commerce.

Teaching approach: Every student is unique and special… I try to identify each student’s skills and gifts as well as what their needs are by utilizing a diagnostic prescriptive approach to learning. In order to help, with student success and promote necessary skills, I provide materials, activities and learning experiences for each student, to encourage academic achievements.

Philosophy of education: Learning is the passport to all dreams… and dreams are the essence of life!
