When asked about her teaching philosophy, she responded:

My philosophy of teaching hasn’t changed much over these 30 years. I believe all children can learn and are resilient and loving by nature. They need direction, love, nurturing, respect and consistency from a committed teacher. I tell teachers I have mentored that teaching is a passionate profession. You have to love it. It can’t be just about the paycheck. Teaching comes from the heart. An outstanding teacher masters her craft and loves what she does so much that she is happy to get up and meet the kids each day.
