TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I'm currently a 5th-grade teacher, doctoral student, and presenter. I am formerly an instructional coach, elementary reading teacher, high school religion teacher, Montessori teacher's assistant, etc.

MY TEACHING STYLE

My pedagogy always seeks to utilize the constructivist method. I want students to employ a growth-mindset, and be aware of their thinking as it happens (i.e. metacognition).
