More About Me

As a professional Educational Consultant, I believe in maintaining a positive mindset, creating partnerships with parents, and always striving for successful child outcomes. 

I was certified as a special education teacher in Illinois in 1996 and currently hold a Professional Educators License #4704452 for K-12 as a Learning Behavioral Specialist with endorsements in emotional disabilities and learning disabilities. 

Over the past 25 years, I have gained experience teaching grades 5-12 in the areas of English, Math, Social Studies, and Science.  In accordance with No Child Left Behind (NCLB, 2005) I am highly qualified to teach English, Math, Social Studies, and Science.   

I am accepting students to Educational Freedom between the ages of 10-13 to build a solid foundation for academic success and emotional well being.
