Introduction

My name is Ms. Michelle McCormick and I currently teach middle school social studies in Stockton, CA. I have five large breed dogs and, as a result, my sweaters always have some amount of dog hair on them. When I first got into education as an English/Language Arts tutor six years ago, it seemed like a good way to utilize my degree and get paid better than minimum wage. After a very short period of time, it became clear to me that I was supposed to be in the classroom. My personality type is teacher-esque and helping people that genuinely need my assistance is terribly fulfilling. The coolest thing about working in this profession is that everything you do at work matters.
