Centre County, Pennsylvania, United States

I am thrilled to be able to support the homeschool community through offering evaluation services. I evaluate grades 7-12 under the PA Certification provision of the PA Homeschool Law, and I evaluate K-6 under the "Other Qualifications" provision. I also offer small group learning experiences for homeschool families in the Humanities, specifically English, Social Studies, and Art. Through my experiences being homeschooled and teaching in private and public settings, I have a deep respect for homeschooling and am overjoyed to serve homeschooling families. homeschoolwithhope.com

I strive to create a positive learning environment and well-managed classroom in which students can grow and thrive. I develop and teach relevant and engaging lessons that are aligned with standards and draw students into learning, and I assess student learning in order to inform stakeholders and drive learning and instruction. In addition, I utilize digital tools to present learning experiences in an organized and visually appealing way across a variety of formats.Philosophy of Teaching:I believe that students have amazing capacities to learn, have great value, are unique as individuals, can choose to value learning, can invest themselves in meaningful enterprises, and can reach great goals. As a partial steward of such exciting potential, it is my goal to teach them and equip them with knowledge and understanding useful to the opportunities they encounter.

As a substitute teacher, I manage the classroom and maintain a positive learning environment in the absence of the regular teacher. I also engage students in the learning activities their classroom teacher has planned for them. I value getting to meet the staff and faculty of the many schools I substitute in. I also enjoy learning from the variety of ways that teachers set up and run their classrooms. Substitute teaching is a great learning experience on many different levels.

Both the summer of 2014 and the summer of 2015, I have inspected septic systems to see that they met state requirements, set up filing systems, filed papers, and completed other clerical tasks. I also learned to use a SMART Board and then co-taught small group sessions to building code officials on how to use it in meetings and lectures. I continued to work in the office into the colder months of the year helping to set up filing systems and completing other clerical tasks.
