Class Experience

US Grade Kindergarten
This ongoing, two times a week, 30 minute private class is for students who have mastered saying the letters of the alphabet, can identify at least 12 letters, can write these letters independently, A, B, E, F, H, I, L, O, T, U, V and X, and understand the concept of Days of the Week, and Months of the Year. Each day, a new letter of the alphabet will be the focus of the lesson.
In this class, we will be focusing on letter sounds, combining letters to make words, and combining words to create sentences.
Approximately five minutes, at the beginning of the class, will be devoted to warm up exercises that include, talking about the weather, identifying the Day of the Week, the month, the letter and number to be covered, and other topics that interest the student. 
Approximately 20 minutes will be devoted to writing, reading simple words and sentences, and counting and simple math problems. Approximately five minutes at the end of class will be devoted to wrap up activities. 
I will use flash cards, OutSchool Share Screen, Google Slides, and at times, OutSchool Whiteboard.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Texas Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Master's Degree in Education from East Texas State University
Hello moms, dads, grandparents, aunts, uncles, caretakers, and learners! I'm Dru Driver, M.Ed. 
I love teaching!
Pre-k and kindergarten are where it all begins, and that's where I started. I taught kindergarten and pre-k for fifteen years before going into counseling. I have had extensive training in identifying dyslexia.  I offer classes where young children learn letters and sounds through a motor-tactile experience. I hold certifications in ESL (English as a Second Language) and TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Language). I have been teaching online ESL/TESOL classes since 2019.
I began counseling pre-k through 12 grades in 1996. I have taught PK-12th various activities and skills that range from leadership to exploring career programs of study. My counseling experiences have also included occasions where we dealt with grief. 
I love animals of all kinds, and I am also a professional dog groomer. 
Interacting with nature and taking pictures of wildlife is a passion I have had since I was a small child. I have had many experiences caring for and raising wildlife. I have successfully raised baby birds, squirrels, rabbits, opossums, and beavers. 
I am certified to teach art in Texas, and I offer classes such as basic drawing and painting for beginning learners and art appreciation for all levels. Art is an area where children can explore their creative sides and deepest emotions. Often, art is a way for children to express themselves when they know no other way. 
I have four children who are now grown, and they are all successful in their chosen professions. 
I have found that being caring, artistic, and creative has enhanced my abilities to help others. I love teaching, and in my world, there is nothing more magical or miraculous than seeing children learning new skills. Learning is a lifelong endeavor for me, and I try to instill a love of learning in all my students. When you find what children love, you can teach them anything!
I love teaching! I look forward to your child joining the fun!

Bachelor of Science
Associates of Arts
Art (EC-12)
ESL (EC-12)
Counseling (PK-12)
