As long as I can remember I wanted to be a teacher and make a difference in young peoples lives. I am proud to make that my life's work. I have earned an MA in Education, and a Education Specialist Teaching credential, with an emphasis on working with students with moderate to severe special needs. I have been teaching overall for almost 15 years, 5 of those in special education, and currently teach at Santa Ynez High School. I have worked with children and young adults with a wide range of ability levels and health concerns. I am comfortable with both sitting and tutoring or a blend of both. Thank you for your time, and I look forward to working with you.
