My name is Theresa.

I have a Bachelor of Science in Education from Central Washington University; Major-Early Childhood Education / Minor-Elementary Education. Graduating class of 1999.

My experience includes 13 years of teaching in public schools and 5 years of private tutoring. I received the Teacher Leadership Project grant funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation in 2002. This grant involved one year of technology training and $9000 in equipment for my classroom. My post graduate courses included 45 credits, in reading, writing, math, technology, classroom management, diversity, etc.

In addition to teaching, I mentor a child through Big Brothers Big Sisters organization, beginning in 2007.

I have 2 children of my own ages 26 and 21. They are healthy, happy people pursuing their dreams!

I love working one-on-one with kids because it allows me to customize their education. I work hard to find the right method and style based on students' needs.

Elementary (K-6th)

I have 12 years of teaching experience in elementary education. My training includes many hours in literacy courses with the "workshop" method of teaching. I love teaching reading and writing to young students. The workshop style involves helping students identify books that are at their level. I teach strategies of reading that are authentic and that is key to improving reading skills. I also incorporate phonics instruction based on the child's needs.

Phonics

As an elementary school teacher for the last 12 years I have used phonics techniques with children extensively. I've taken special classes including "Making Words" by Patricia Cunningham.
