Hello, I am in my 20th year of teaching elementary public school. I have taught 1,2,3 and 4th with a specific style that caters to the student's emotional and mental needs, while successfully encouraging and motivating the success that is within them. I possess a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education and a Master's in Curriculum and Instruction.

I am looking for a new avenue to challenge myself to reach more specific students who had difficulty like myself and meet their individual concerns. I was a student who moved often in my young academic career, and because of this, I am aware of the unsugar-coated challenges that face students today. The mindset and feelings that block students from being capable and motivated is the main focus of my personalized instruction. I incorporate writing from the heart and head to help connect children to their learning and retention. I not only academically inspire students but also help them to realize their full potential beyond the school stuff.

My philosophy of teaching is to build a connection and relate the academics that are needed to the individual person. I remember what the frustration and confusion were like and how it felt when I was on the other side of the desk. My goal as a teacher is to facilitate students who might have similar issues and show them there is a way to grow that isn't boring or difficult. I have a humorous and compassionate delivery, a bit of a stern Mary Poppins without the singing. I love setting goals for the collaboration. I believe in straightforward communication and cooperation while reflecting on accomplishments and improvements.

I currently teach third grade in public school. I manage 26 students in a classroom setting where small group instruction and one on one are my main focus. I look forward to showcasing my skills on a broader platform with more access to students who are looking for the type of instruction I offer. I get to know my students on a level that promotes connections for the best possible ou
