About Me

Klamath Falls, Oregon, United States
I am 24 years old, I am a wife and a mother of a two year old daughter named Tatum. I have my Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education and I am currently working on my Master's Degree in Teacher Leadership. I am substitute teaching full time in both districts in my area as well at a charter school and a private Christian school. I love making a difference. I am hoping to have a classroom of my very own in the near future! I love to read, watch movies, camp, snowmobile, and ATV.

Hoping to grow and develop my leadership skills!

     As I start my first class of my Master's program in Teacher Leadership, the class is EDL/500-Personal Leadership. In this course I really hope to learn more about my personal qualities as a teacher and a teacher leader. I feel that I know what qualities a ideal teacher leader possesses, but I feel that it is important for me to determine which of those qualities I already have and which I need to work on or develop. I hope to learn from others in my course as well as my instructor. Everyone views various situations differently and I think that it is important for people to understand how they are being precieved through anothers eyes. I hope to be preceived as a future Leader of Teachers.

    This is a nice site - bright and colorful with a nice picture of your family!
    It is true that one person's challenge is another person's triumph ... it's all a matter of perspective. Being aware of this and being able to best understand this is a great asset to a leader. Glad to be a part of the same team!

    Hi Erin!

    I like all the books you have on your shelf. :)

    What grade do you teach?

    What are some of the qualities you see a teacher leader possessing, and which do you personally possess?

    I hope we can all share our perspectives and perceptions throughout our course, and especially in our team!

    Great to be working with you!

    Thank you! I am currently substituting at all grade levels, mainly elementary, until I can find a full-time position, hopefully this next school year!
