TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I am working with highly gifted second and third graders. My previous experience was in a multi age Montessori gifted classroom.

MY TEACHING STYLE

My main focus in the classroom is helping the children find balance in their learning. I will stress this balance daily as they choose their own work. My goal for each child is that they reach their fullest potential while exploring every area of the curriculum. I feel that a balanced classroom should be a safe, fun, exciting and caring environment for the children. Working together I believe we can achieve this balance and provide an exceptional learning environment for the children.
