About Me

My name is Leslie Hudson, but everyone calls me Jimmy. I am a seasoned soccer player (forward), morel hunter, bowhunter (compound), ice fisherman, and disc jockey. I also enjoy biking and cultivating gardens in the spring and summer times. I am Jamaican by birth and have spent most of my life in Jamaica. I am a graduate of the University of Montana in Missoula, Montana with a Bachelors degree in elementary education and a graduate of the Moneague Multidisciplinary College in Saint Ann, Jamaica with a 4 year teaching diploma. I have over seven years experience working with 5th grade students and I am having an amazing time teaching in Bonner School.

I am passionate about teaching and emphasize a hands-on approach to learning; whenever possible. I challenge my students and engage them in critical thinking using a variety of activities. I believe that every child has the ability to learn and I take great satisfaction and pride in helping each student find his or her way.

My ultimate aim as a teacher is to make each student feel accomplished and confident in their abilities. For them to own their learning experience and take pride in their efforts and always do their best.
