My Story
When I came to North Greenville Junior College as a student I knew then that God wanted me to teach. After graduating from college and getting my first job as a full-time special education teacher, I never looked back. I love to learn and quickly got my master’s in elementary education and on to get my specialist degree in special education. God moved me into a fourth-grade position and then back to North Greenville University to teach others how to teach and continue to show God’s love in the classroom.
Favorite Course to Teach: Math Methods and Science Methods. I enjoy these classes because I can connect them to real-life experiences and to the Christian worldview. Both classes are best taught with hands-on learning and I believe we learn by doing best.
