My Students

My students are amazing, unique, and talented learners!

They are optimistic, persistent, hungry for knowledge, and most of all, always show up NO MATTER WHAT.

Trauma, poverty, homelessness, death, violence, disabilities do not stop my students from learning in innovative and creative ways. They continue to increase their reading levels, are writing 5 paragraph essays, learn to code and incorporate technology in their learning through Google Apps for Education, and are learning functional curriculum in addition to skill-based academics. They are eager to go out into the world to become productive assets in our society in spite of their challenges and disabilities.

Partner with me and let us continue to teach them in ways that are meaningful and relevant to them, in ways that are unique because my students are Unique Learners.

My students show up each time. Are we going to show up for them?

My Project

Watching these life skills videos will allow them to learn critical life skills that my students need in order to be successful and productive assets in our society.

"It’s been said that if a picture a picture is worth a thousand words, then a video is worth a million.

Never has

that been more true than in the area of life skills, where video modeling is THE most effective method for

teaching these critical life, literacy, health, math, safety, social, transportation, and work skills.

With Conover Resources, you have access to our comprehensive video library to teach and re-enforce these

critical skills. Conover Resources is the perfect tool for either individual or group instruction."
