Biography:
I graduated from Eastern Illinois University with a Degree in Early Childhood Education in 2008. I just received my Masters Degree as a Reading Specialist and I am currently working on my English as a Second Language endorsement. I could not be any happier than where I am today working in District 123. I have learned so much in my first couple years in the district and look forward to working with all of the wonderful children that come through our district each year. I have listed a couple of my favorite quotes about education that I truly believe in and live by each and everyday as I walk into my classroom.
"Every student can learn, just not on the same day, or the same way" -George Evans
"Once children learn how to learn; nothing is going to narrow their mind. The essence of teaching is to make learning contagious, to have one idea spark another."- Marva Collins
"Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn."- Benjamin Franklin
"A hundred years from now, it will not matter what kind of car I drove, what kind of house I lived in, how much money I had in the bank...but the world may be a better place because I made a difference in the life of a child."- Forest Witcraft
