TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I have spent over ten years in education as a first grade teacher, a K-2 literacy teacher, a substitute at a local K-2 school, and a curriculum developer. I currently teach first grade in Massachusetts! I am LETRS and OG (IMSE) trained.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I believe in making learning tactile! Our young students need to see and feel their learning taking place in front of them. I like to give real world, applicable problems whenever possible so students can see the direct impact their learning has on them. I believe our students should enjoy learning and have fun with it!
