I came to South Carolina to go to Bob Jones University where I graduated as a highly qualified teacher in early childhood education. After I graduated, I went back to Arizona and taught first grade for three years. This is my fifth year teaching first grade, and my second year at an Academy. I love teaching first grade!

I teach students different math activities using a variety of methods. I love to incorporate manipulatives and real world experiences. I also love to incorporate technology with math letting students play math games to solidify and practice what they learn.
Teaching literacy involves so many facets. I love to try and teach my students to love literacy through reading and writing. I teach first grade and that is the grade where students learn to read. I have five years experience teaching first grade and teaching those students how to decode words.
I love to give my students experiences doing the scientific method by doing science experiments.
I teach phonics focusing on sounds and letter combinations. I also feel teaching students sight words are essential to get the student reading. Phonics needs to be taught alongside of reading, so that there is a purpose to phonics.
I'm so excited to help students succeed in school! Please consider having me tutor your child!
