Why I do what I do:

I have been an educator for the past decade.  My career began with substitute teaching while I was in college. I graduated with a degree in Early Childhood Education with and add-on in Elementary Education. A few years later, I graduated with my Master’s in Education Administration.

I am in year seven as an official classroom teacher.  Like many of you, I went home to teach virtually in March 2020.  I have not returned to a physical classroom since.

I can still remember prior to that when administration and districts had this huge push to use more technology and to go more paperless.  I remember being given only 1,000 copies per semester.  In a class of 25, that’s less than one sheet per child per day!

The thought of going paperless seemed impossible, until I had no choice.  The end of the 2020 school year was survival mode.  I shared my screen and we read articles, and I called on students to answer questions.  This was about the extend of my digital instruction.  Then, the 2020-2021 school year came, and I knew I had to learn better methods.  I took just about every training I could find to instruct with technology more. It was a year of learning and growing as an educator.

Fast-forward to this school year and paperless is my normal!  I feel like competent virtual educator now.

So how do my experiences drive what I do?

I want to help my fellow educators.  It doesn’t matter if you are still in a brick and mortar building or if you’re a virtual teacher like me.  It doesn’t matter if you are fresh out of college or a seasoned, veteran education or anywhere in between.  The fact is paperless and technology is the norm now.  It is the expectation.

I wanted create a space for teachers to learn and evolve their special skills.  I wanted a space where teachers can go digital without having to give up their rigor. (I remember search TeachersPayTeachers and finding beautiful, digital resources, but when I opened them, the rigor was not there!) I know you can have both. And, I am going to make sure you have both.

This is my why.  This is why I have this page.  This is why I spend countless extra hours (on top of being a teacher) working on this website, creating courses, and creating quality digital resources.  I believe every teacher deserves to have the tools in their toolbox to meet the needs of their 21st century learners.
