I AM A GRADUATE OF SOUTH PANOLA HIGH AND DELTA STATE UNIVERSITY. I ATTENDED
NWCC, AS WELL AS DSU, WHERE I RECEIVED A DEGREE IN EDUCATION; CERTIFICATION
IN ELEMENTARY ED., ENGLISH (7-12), AND HISTORY (7-12). MY PLANS ARE
TO TEACH HERE IN MY HOMETOWN AND BEGIN WORK IN THE HIGHER EDUCATION PROGRAM
AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI. I AM CURRENTLY WORKING ON A
MASTER'S IN EDUCATION.
I RESIDE NEAR ENID LAKE WITH MY HUSBAND, LARRY, DAUGHTER, BELLA, AND OUR DOG,
DOBERMAN PINSCHER--BINGA.
I HOPE TO MAKE LANGUAGE ARTS FUN AND MEANINGFUL FOR ALL OF MY STUDENTS. I
BELIEVE THAT ALL STUDENTS CAN LEARN TO READ AND WRITE FLUENTLY, AND IT IS MY
PRIORITY AND GOAL TO TRY TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN. I REALIZE THE DIFFERENCES IN
STUDENTS' LEARNING STYLES AND INTERESTS, AND MY CLASSROOM IS INTENDED ON
BEING A COMFORTABLE, SAFE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT. I HOPE TO DEVELOP TRUSTING
RELATIONSHIPS WITH ALL OF MY STUDENTS AND HAVE A POSITIVE IMPACT ON THEIR
FUTURES.
