Welcome to my website!  I am an EL and Language Academy teacher for Murray Middle School.  I teach 6th grade Readers' and Writers' Workshop, Language Academy courses, and English Language Development.  I hold licenses in Music, ESL, and Reading, as well as a bilingual certification.  I have taught in Minnesota, Wisconsin and Mexico.  I thoroughly enjoy teaching English language learners as it offers me the opportunity to use my love of music, art, drama, language and literature to teach students who come from all over the world.
