I have been teaching Kindergarten for five years in Massachusetts. I work with all Kindergarten teachers in my school and we love to collaborate and share ideas!
My style is hands on, collaborative, and active engagement. I want my students to gain confidence and self-esteem through guided instruction and problem solving. I want my students to become wholesome in character, to become compassionate and to see life as a responsibility, to give something to the world, to develop a sophisticated intellect, to become avid readers and independent thinkers, and to lead reflective and meaningful lives.
