Introduction

Hello everyone! My name is Amy and I am in my 8th year of teaching. I am a Business Education teacher at Mundelein High School. I have taught many business courses, including, Introduction to Business, Computer Applications, Business Incubator, Accounting 1, Honors Accounting 2 and Technology Support Internship.

I utilize technology as mush as possible in the courses I teach as I find it increases the effectiveness of my instruction and student engagement. I also have a Canvas courses for my classes, so I was happy to see that Dominican University uses Canvas.

Prior to becoming a teacher, I received my undergraduate from Miami University in Business. I worked in marketing for five years before deciding to obtain my master's degree in Secondary Education. I am able to relate many of my real-world business experiences to the classes I currently teach.

While taking EDU 776, I am also finishing up my Teacher Leadership master's from Concordia University.

In my free time, I love spending time with my husband and two year old son. We enjoy going for bike rides, going to the library and park, and just exploring the world. Life with a two year old is an exciting and exhausting adventure! But I wouldn't trade it for the world!

I look forward to learning and working with each of you.
