Summary

I am an experience teacher who has proven to be effective in teaching students of all ages. My focus over the past twenty-one years teaching at Delview Secondary has been teaching all math courses from grades 8-11, and working with students of diverse needs in the Learning Centre. I love teaching and would like to continue teaching as a TTOC in the Delta School District.
