"What makes a child gifted and talented may not always be good grades in school, but a different way of looking at the world and learning." -C. Grassley
I love teaching Middle School Social Studies! I lived in upstate NY, Rochester area, for 34 years. We have been in SC for 10 years and I love the weather in the south. I have taught 6th grade and high school social studies which focuses on World History Civilizations. I have also taught United States history for a decade in NY. I earned my Bachelors degree at Nazareth College and my Masters at SUNY Brockport. I have traveled and studied in Germany and Poland. My passion is Holocaust Studies and I have published a survivor memoir, Lost Childhood. I have taught grades 6-10 and this is my 22nd year teaching. WooHoo! I also have earned National Board Certification in Early Adolescent Social Studies. I look forward to meeting you and enjoying our adventure!
