Welcome to 7th Grade World Geography!  

This is my 13th year teaching 7th grade at Stover Middle School.  I absolutely love working here and look forward to teaching all of my new students this year!

I was formerly a military kid who had the opportunity to move around the world growing up.  I was very fortunate to have lived across the United States, Asia, and Europe.  I earned my Bachelor's degree in Middle Level Social Studies from Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, Texas and my Master's degree in Instructional Accommodations from Francis Marion University.  I moved to South Carolina in 2008, and now call this home since this is the longest I have lived anywhere. 

I recently got married in August, hence the name change from Mathews to Hoiland.  I live with my husband Nate, and our two pups, Ranger and Jax.  In my spare time, I help run our CrossFit gym, workout, travel, attempt to cook, and play with our sweet dogs.
