TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I started out teaching English in Moscow, Russia in 2012-2013. After that I've had experience working internationally at a private school in Germany where I taught several grade levels. In the US I have experience teaching kindergarten and first grade in both North Carolina and Virginia!

MY TEACHING STYLE

In my first grade classroom I use centers and teach in small groups for math and reading. I like to make learning fun! I keep the mood positive and encourage my students to be their best selves.
