As a certified first-grade classroom teacher at Laurel Elementary School within Prince George's County Public Schools (PGCPS), I bring a strong foundation in early childhood education and a proven track record of academic and social-emotional growth among my students. I have several years of experience teaching in a public school setting, where I design and deliver engaging, standards-aligned instruction in literacy, math, science, and social studies. My teaching practice includes differentiated instruction tailored to the unique needs of young learners, including English Language Learners (ELLs), students with IEPs, and gifted students. I emphasize hands-on learning, critical thinking, and the development of a lifelong love of learning. I have experience working with children ages 5–7 in both whole-group and individualized settings, including small group instruction and one-on-one support. I regularly communicate with parents and collaborate with colleagues to ensure a holistic approach to student success. My commitment to fostering a nurturing and inclusive classroom environment has resulted in measurable improvements in student outcomes and consistently positive feedback from families and staff.
