I had the privilege of attending the award ceremony, this past Thursday evening, where Ms. Stiller was presented the Excellence in Teaching Award by the MCTM Past President, Bill Barnes and current President, Susan Vohrer.
Karen is so deserving of this honor.
Her classroom is always full of excitement and motivation. She uses
math manipulatives, technology, videos and other tools to capture the interest
of her students. Her interactive approach to both the teaching and learning
process are extremely effective with middle school learners. She prides herself
on teaching all children. She especially gets a lot of satisfaction from
helping those students who have difficulties with learning. She has a keen understanding of the importance of identifying
individual student needs, encouraging talent development and fostering
self-esteem within her classroom.
I also want to congratulate Ms. Holly Cheung who also was an award recipient at this same banquet. She is also an amazing math teacher and friend. I had the good fortune of working with Ms. Cheung at Elkridge Landing Middle.
Way to go Karen and Holly!
