About Me

About Me @teachermikey

I have been teaching since 2000, starting my teaching career at Morris MacDonald School Division and have spent my last 12 years at Interlake School Division.  I am the Technology Mentor for our small school and a committee member for our divisions Computer Steering Committee. 

I love teaching in a small community in Manitoba, Canada.  It is so nice to see students and families grow, there are some students that I teach that I have known since they were 4 years old, with small communities come a great sense of family.  This year I am also teaching the child of a student I taught my first year!  Wow!

I am blessed to have married an amazing man and double blessed by two happy healthy boys, and an adorable girl dog who the boys named Simon!  Since having my children I do see education differently, a goal for me is to be the teacher that I hope my child gets.  To have my engagement and relationship with my students mirror that of what their teachers have with them. As well I constantly ask myself now, is what I am doing in my class good enough that my own kids would be engaged, interested, motivated and inspired.  I have always felt this way, just more for some reason now.

This blog is about my experiences as an educator and parent.

When I am not at school, our family enjoys time outside.
