In 7th grade students are becoming more serious about their education and starting to find their passions. Students are starting to see how their decisions affect the world around them and feel the responsibility that Catholics have in our technological age.

I love teaching science because students can apply the concepts they learn when engineering, building and performing experiments in my classes.

I want my students to dream big, become self-directed learners,and push their academic abilities to their limits.  
My goal is to start my students on the right path to the college of their dreams.

Math is something I enjoyed learning as a student & 
I do my best to make sure that comes through in my  teaching.  I am teaching Pre-Algebra, Algebra, & Geometry at SVDP and each class emphasizes the    application of concepts, builds problem-solving                                                                           techniques, and holds students accountable for their                                                                   learning.  I am excited for the year ahead at SVDP!
