"My name is Natalie. I am a veteran teacher with 31 years experience in both elementary and high school level teaching. I earned both my BA and my Master's of Education degrees from Mercer University, followed by my Education Specialist degree from Georgia Southwestern State University.

As an experienced teacher, I have developed the ability to work with a wide variety of personalities and needs. Patience, flexibility, and compassion are my personal strengths, as a major goal of mine is to create a strong relationship with my students and their families.

Throughout my career in education, I have taught all subjects in first through fifth grades, including math, science, social studies, and science. I taught a student body that included regular education, SPED, and EIP students, working closely with them to help them improve and show growth. As a high school teacher, I have taught Mythology, Writer's Workshop, Reading, 9th - 12th English, AP Literature, and World History. For all subjects I taught at the high school level, I have taught in inclusive classrooms, helping regular education students and SPED students learn and grow.

Thank you for taking the time to get to know me. I'd love the opportunity to work with you. I believe my experience and strengths will enable me to be a valuable resource for your remediation and enrichment needs." less...
