Author Information

Janice Montgomery is a seasoned teacher who enjoys the educational process from many perspectives. She was a substitute teacher in K-12 for many years before having the privilege of teaching in a self-contained gifted program. Those early years helped prepare her for 15+ years with gifted elementary students that required flexibility and quick thinking. She still relishes the opportunity to meet and communicate with former students from those classroom years. These students have specifically remembered their study guides as a powerful force in their education. Montgomery made a major career change as she moved into the administrative world in 1997 as an assistant principal and professional development coordinator. She currently works for a community education program that is working to improve the learning systems of PreK-college classrooms. She plans to continue writing in her retirement years. At that time she and her husband will thoroughly enjoy her two daughters, their husbands, and their precious grandchildren. Janice hopes to continue working with mentoring programs for new teachers and teaching graduate education courses once she transitions from professional development.
