Hello My Name Is...
Christy Wood
This is my 20th year of teaching and my 6th year at Bess T. Shepherd Elementary teaching ESOL. I love working with children and learning about the different cultures at our school. ESOL stands for English Speakers of Other Languages. In my classroom I work with students in K-2 who are learning to read, write, listen, and speak in English. We do this in a variety of hands on methods and movement so that the children will learn quickly and remember what they are learning.
I graduated from the University of North Texas in 1999 with a degree in Elementary Education and a minor in Special Education. I taught in Lewisville ISD in the Dallas, Texas area for 14 years before my family moved to Tennessee in 2012. I have 2 boys who love sports, Legos, and Xbox. My husband is Caesar Wood and he works at UTC.
In my free time I like reading books, working on genealogy, camping, and spending time with my family.
Please feel free to contact me at either [email protected] or 423-855-2611 with any concerns/comments that you have. I look forward to working with your child.
