Hello! My name is Heidi Stauffer, I am the middle school language arts teacher, and this will be my third year teaching at Galileo Middle School. I briefly taught elementary and middle school kids right after I earned my Bachelor's degree from Michigan State University, but when I finished my Master's Degree in Literature from UCF, I taught college students at the University of Central Florida and Valencia Community College. Then I went on to teach English and Humanities at the University of Phoenix. I believe that learning should be a fun, interactive experience, but I also think it takes some hard work. I love teaching, and I love Galileo School. I even have two kids who go to Galileo, which is how I found out about all of the incredible teachers, staff, and students who attend the school. I couldn't help but want to be a part of something so amazing!
