Professional development

My Project

Five years ago, I became highly motivated and ambitious after reading a National Board Certification blog post from an educator I highly respected. At that time, I had yet to meet the minimum years of teaching experience to begin the National Board journey; but, I've ingrained it in my mind as a top-priority goal that I hope to achieve one day.

The National Board certification process will command analysis of student strengths and strategic creation of lesson contents that prioritize Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles and comprehensible input to ensure that ALL learners can become successful and effective consumers of knowledge.
