About Heather
I feel education is in my DNA—my mother retired as the assistant superintendent of the second largest district in Mississippi, my big sister taught for 25 years (1st grade and then GATES), and my older brother taught junior high math, science, and chemistry. I received my undergrad degree in elementary education from Mississippi College, my Master's degree from Alcorn State University, and received several certifications, including screening and teaching students likely to be diagnosed with dyslexia and dysgraphia. I taught grades Pre-K through 3rd grade in the Mississippi public school system before retiring after 25 years. I received many awards including Teacher of the Year from our local Chamber of Commerce. Upon retiring, I immediately began teaching at a private Christian school my son had been attending for years because he was unable to receive the help he needed in our public schools. I now feel that my time and skills will best serve young struggling readers, and my very supportive administration has allowed me to step out of the regular classroom and focus on helping these students on an individual basis.

I'm a compassionate, loving, Christian educator who believes all children can be successful learners, especially if learning targets are made clear. It becomes even easier when lessons are made fun and interesting—tailored to each child's individual interests. Also, as a parent to a child who was diagnosed dyslexic way too late, I strive to make sure no other child feels the self-doubt my baby endured.

Ms Heather is a huge part of my life since my third grade year. She always took her time with me. She saw a student that really needed her and she did just that I’m 31 and I always think back to her. She truly amazing and loves her students.
Heather was my supervisor for student teaching. She was such a wonderful mentor and friend to me, and I saw firsthand how big of a difference she made in those children’s lives! She truly cares about each and every one of her students and anyone would be so lucky to have her as a teacher!
Mrs. Heather is one of the best around. She is very dedicated to helping kids and even adults learn new things and move forward in life. Mrs. Heather is one of the sweetest people you will meet, with a personality out of this world!!

She has a way of making learning fun and engaging, which helps students stay motivated and interested. She is very patient and willingness to help students who are struggling. She assures that all of her students will be successful because she will not give up on them and will not allow them to give up on themselves. She is very creative. She creates a supportive and inclusive learning environment that allows students to feel comfortable asking questions. She explains lessons throughly and ensures understanding. She is a passionate teacher who is dedicated to her job and assuring that her students are successful. “Heather is an exceptional educator."
Heather is one of the most patient, dependable, and knowledgeable people I know. She is passionate about helping others learn and always takes the time to ensure that concepts are understood clearly. Her kind and approachable nature makes students feel comfortable and supported. I wholeheartedly trust Heather as a teacher and believe she brings out the best in those.
