Kelly Wheeler

Educator in a Modern Classroom, Instructional Technology Enthusiast and Advocate of Modern Classroom Statement of Purpose:

My goal as an educator is to continue to enrich and develop my career with a variety of different teaching experiences and outlets. I have worked in Secondary Education for eighteen years and that past few have been some of my best pedagogically. I love working with 17 to 19- year-old’s and have always wanted to see them onto that next step. I truly believe knowing the next step for them helps prepare them better in the present. In light of the last year, it has become apparent that education, as we know it, is changing and I am excited and prepared for those changes and want to see what my qualification, experience, and enthusiasm for said changes can offer the present and next generation, Professional Experience
