Teacher expertise and credentials
Welcome! Before I was a virtual teacher, I was an elementary and middle school learning specialist. I have experience teaching math, language arts, and executive functioning K-8, and writing K-12. I received my Bachelor's degree in Human Development and Family Studies from Colorado State University, and my Master's degree in Special Education from the University of Northern Colorado.
My classes are based on needs I saw in the public school system. Phonics, fractions, and essay writing were just some of the many areas I was brought in to work with students in. I now strive to help fill those gaps for students in affordable small classes!
I believe that no two students learn in the same way. Adapting the way information is presented to students puts everyone on an even playing field. I also believe that learning should involve more than academic standards. In school, students learn how to socialize, regulate their emotions, deal with frustration, and are exposed to the real world problem solving. Curriculum should reflect these important skills.
*If your student has an IEP or 504 plan, please let me know before class if you wish for any accommodations to be put in place and I would be happy to do so!*
Teachers are people too! When I'm not teaching I am raising my children, gardening, playing with our two dogs and four goats or continuing my own education.
