About Shannon
Experience: 20 yrs
I taught high school Science and Health for over 17 years. While teaching I centered my classroom around inquiry and hands-on learning with an emphasis on getting outside and making learning relatable to my students. I created a working urban farm with chickens, goats, hydroponics, an orchard, and a garden. I am on to my next professional chapter in life after resigning from my full-time teaching career in 2020. Tutoring, kid-sitting, and dog sitting makes up the bulk of my days and I love it. I am highly educated with a Master of Arts in Teaching Biology and enjoy working with children of all ages.

Shannon was amazing with our kids! We were so thankful for her help on short notice. She was punctual, followed instructions well and picked up both kids from school. She engaged and interacted with them. They really enjoyed her and raved about her. We will definitely be using Shannon again.
