I've taught in both public and private schools, including nine years teaching kindergarten. My current adventure is teaching 3rd grade..
My teaching philosophy is that students learn best by DOING and with that in mind I strive to create hands-on, stimulating lessons that meet the diverse needs of learners and enables them to become independent thinkers.
