About The Teacher

    I've always known I wanted to become a TEACHER.  As the oldest of three 
girls, I played school with my younger sisters.  I loved reading to them and 
"teaching" them to read too.  I attended college knowing "exactly what I 
wanted to be."  
    I've had the most awesome experience being able to teach in 
many different states and different cultures because of my husband's 
military duties.  I've seen and have been a part of many different learning 
styles and I try to use these experiences in my teaching here at UTPS. I 
love sharing my personal experiences with the children to help show 
them the vast world around them.
    I've been teaching in Upper Township for 12 years as a first grade teacher.
It is very rewarding to work with this age group as they learn to read and 
write and learn the beginnings of math.  Every day is a wonderful day as I 
see the children's smiling faces.
