I learned to share and instruct using a multi-modal format, for instance
Where I've traveled:
View England 2011 in a larger map
I learned to capture an experience using a multimodal format, like my
Pub Journey
A trip to "the local" begins in an English town. ... See my Tabblo>
I learned to appreciate differences in culture, for example
I learned that I might be a writer.
About Me:
I'm a Civics & Economics, World History, and Teacher Cadet teacher at Knightdale High School. Some of my favorite lessons are when we journal as if the students were actually there at a historical event!
Since Summer of 2009, I have loved teaching American History, Government, and Culture in the FuHsing Program through Meredith College's Global Education Initiative. It is wonderful to share in the study abroad experience of middle and high school students from Taiwan. We learn a lot, and have a lot of fun!
Another passion I have is teaching other teachers. I am particularly excited about teaching KHS's Teacher Cadet class next year. I enjoy serving as a WCPSS Differentiation Champion and Social Studies Curriculum Writer. I thoroughly enjoy learning as much as possible about new innovations in the profession, and sharing them with my colleagues.

I was born and raised in the Raleigh, NC area. I majored in History, with a minor in Political Science, and 7-12 Social Studies licensure at Meredith College. I fell in love with the UK during my Study Abroad experience in Summer of 2006. I lived on Kensington High Street in London, traveled throughout England, to Scotland, and to Paris. I love all things British!
