Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello parents and potential learners! My name is Ms. Kodi and I taught two school years of art class to 1st through 8th graders and 9th through 12th graders, as well as two years of teaching an art-themed summer camp. I teach elementary academics with the help of my virtual zoo animals as well as some fun and engaging Marine Biology, Marine Mammology, and Zoology classes. I believe that a classroom should be a safe, caring community where children are free to speak their minds and blossom and grow., whether virtual or in-person I'm always patient with my students and if they get an answer wrong I will kindly steer them in the correct direction and help them understand until they get it right. I hope to see you in one of my classes soon!Reviews
