I am a 15-year veteran teacher who enjoys teaching early childhood. I taught in Santa Maria to primarily English Language Learners and at a Title I school. I have taught grades preschool through fourth and enjoy teaching second grade the best in a primarily classroom setting, but I did work in small groups daily as well. The reason I loved second grade is that is when students are putting the knowledge they have learned to use and begin to really know how to read. It was so fulfilling to watch students grow and made me feel like I was making a real difference in their lives. Prior to my teaching career, I also tutored students individually, and I am looking forward to getting back into tutoring again.
I hold a Multiple Subject Credential in California with Bilingual and CLAD authorization, which has equipped me with the skills needed to support diverse learners effectively. I am well-versed in Common Core standards and am proficient in various educational techniques. Additionally, I am tech-savvy and comfortable with online platforms like Zoom or Google Meets, which I plan to utilize for tutoring sessions to provide flexible and accessible learning opportunities for my students.
