My 22+ years in the educational arena--and ongoing professional development--have taught me to help students to shift from lower- to higher-order thinking, which is really only coaching them to go from knowing the "what" of things to putting all those "whats" together to understand the "hows" and "whys".

I am a former K-8 teacher who is highly skilled in the teaching of all elementary-school subject matter.
