"I would like to point out that I am a parent of three children, all grown up except my daughter, who is a senior in high school. I am currently enrolled in the University of South Carolina Middle Level education program. I have already conducted several practicums in local schools in Columbia, where I was able to work with students of all ages. I really enjoy working with kids because I see them as our future leaders.

I enjoy learning and passing on my knowledge to the next generations. I have trained soldiers for twenty years and have also been a Bible teacher at summer camp for students in middle school for thirteen years. I enjoy building relationships with students and work to try to motivate them to learn at the best of their abilities. One of my strategies is meeting the student where they are currently at with learning, then taking them to the next level and help them to see success in their work. Teaching is my passion and I have a huge desire to see all children be successful in their education." less...
