My name is Jessica Whipple.  I have a B.A. in Biology from Southern Virginia University (2010) and a Masters of Library and Information Science from the University of Southern Mississippi (2015).  I have an assortment of teaching experience ranging from teaching private piano lessons (12 years), early childhood education in the Montessori setting, teaching English abroad in China and instructing at the college level both collaboratively online as well as in person.  I have a deep love for learning as well as for teaching and facilitating an environment where students are able to develop the skills necessary to become life long learners and scholars.
