Educational Information:  I graduated from UCO with a certification to teach special education and then later obtained my certification in mathematics after my transfer to Guthrie High School. 
 
My teaching career started in Guthrie in a variety of positions.  
 
*  Guthrie's Cotteral Elementary (August 2002 - May 2007) - taught 3 years - 1st grade developmentally delayed
     students. 
*  Guthrie High School (August 2007 - 2015) -
       - (August 2007 - May 2008)  Co-taught in Algebra classes, Algebra 1 and Geometry Lab Classes In 2007
       - (August 2008 - May 2011)   Math of Finance and Algebra 1 Remediation
       - (August 2011- May 2015)  Algebra 2
*  Guthrie Upper Elementary (August 2015 - May 2021) 6th grade mathematics
*  Guthrie High School (August 2021 - Current) Advisor and math instructor for Faver Alternative School and
     Bluejay Academy.
 
There wasn't a job I have not enjoy while teaching in Guthrie.  From watching students learn basic life/school skills (walking, speaking, writing, cutting, etc.) to have the ah-ha moments from Algebra 2 students who finally understood a confused or unknown math concept.  My move to 6th grade was based on trying to help students understand the concepts while transferring from concrete math to abstract math.
