Why you can trust me: I spent over 20 years wrangling early learners from K-6th grade and loved it. I also survived teaching middle school for two years and lived to tell it. Give me all the 6 year-olds. Much of my teaching was informed by what I’ve studied about Learning Styles, which has served me well in my own writing and communicating.
I finished the last five years in Special Education and learned a lot, mostly how to look at children with empathy and understanding, especially kiddos with autism. Now that I’m retired from teaching (2016), my days are filled with scribbling down my world through words. I do not miss the rush for the early morning school bell…. but I kinda miss recess. After teaching Elementary School forever, I’m also partial to erasers, which comes in handy when you’re a writer.
