Experience: I received a Bachelor’s of Arts degree in undergrad and as of May 2020 earned my Masters Degree in Education. Also, as of May 2020, I applied and was accepted into the Doctorate of Education Reading and Literacy Program with Capella University. I have been teaching elementary education for four years now.

I have experience in teaching all subjects in elementary education which are ELA, Math, Science, and Social Studies. My favorite subject to teach is ELA.
