She praises the professors at 秀色短视频-Webb for giving her the foundation she needed to succeed. 鈥淚 feel like my education adequately prepared me for what I would encounter as a teacher,鈥� she affirmed. 鈥淢y professors were always available and answered any questions that I had. My education professors at GWU did a great job of exposing me to the various aspects of teaching that can happen outside of general classroom instruction. I had a very diverse group of students my first of year teaching, and I know I would not have been able to be as successful without the wisdom that I gained from the education program at GWU.鈥�

She received her master’s degree from Charleston Southern in school administration and supervision. She worked nine years in public school (Cleveland County Schools and Charleston County School District) and five years in virtual charter with the North Carolina Virtual Academy, which included serves as assistant principal.

They go above and beyond to meet the needs of their students.鈥�
