I was a K-12 teacher in public school for six years before transitioning to higher education. My teaching background includes self-contained classes in 3rd and 4th grades, English in high school, and Technology classes for undergraduate students at a college of Education. My current job primarily involves working with higher-ed faculty on best practices for course design, with emphasis on the online classroom environment.

I started my TeachersPayTeachers.com store when I took a break from full-time teaching in order to focus on my graduate program. When I wasn't writing a paper, working at my part-time job, or spoiling my dog, I was working on my TPT store. I am proud to keep it going since then.

The Classroom Website Template

I developed this website template based on my past experiences using websites in teaching. Ever since I was a student-teacher, I noticed most teachers wanted to have their own class website but struggled to find the time to get one started. This template includes many elements that I used to communicate to parents in my past classrooms.

The Teacher Portfolio

I developed this website template based on my past experiences teaching students from a college of Education on how to make ePortfolios for prospective employers. I myself acquired my current job by using an ePortfolio to show off my past experiences! This template is modeled mostly after my own teaching portfolio.

Whichever template that you have, I hope that it will serve you well during the school year. Thank you again!
