Watch my daily brick building inspiration videos and create something based on this idea, then share and interact with me in the classroom. Build something new every day! I will introduce you to creative new ways to use your building bricks daily. Just a preview: build your favorite foods, ABCs and 123s, characters from your favorite games and more! I provide encouraging personalized feedback to students' comments, questions and projects in the classroom. Let's get started building together today! My style is enthusiastic and fun! I like to share knowledge in a natural way and sneak in learning while kids are playing. I aspire to build students' creativity and flexibility by encouraging them to use their familiar toys in new and unexpected ways.

I have been teaching on Outschool since 2020 and have taught over 6,000 learners.
**I received the Outschool Best in Class Award**
Check out this video where I was featured on an episode of Outschool Live: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsLyvK9cUX4
I have homeschooled my own children who are 9, 11, and 13 years old now since the beginning. And I planned to do that long before they were born!
Between everyone, there's Autism Spectrum, giftedness, ADHD, dyslexia, anxiety, PDA, etc to name a few differences that make my family twice exceptional. I have extensive experience working with different learning styles and have taught students from many different backgrounds.
I use a multi-sensory, engaging, interactive, and playful approach in my classes. I am high energy and make sure each student is met right where they are and that they feel included.
Personally, and at this point in my life, my ADHD is my superpower, but it wasn't always easy for me growing up in traditional school. Let me help you make it easy for your student and yourself!
I earned a BA from Kenyon College, and have started several small businesses, including designing and selling Aloha Feet, The Fidget for Your Feet. I have also won Jigsaw Puzzle competitions.
My most wonderful accomplishment though is hearing from my students that my classes are so much fun and hearing from their adults that their students are finally seen and thriving!
In my free time, I love creating new classes! Plus I enjoy watching Korean dramas and playing BananaGrams.
I am excited to spend time with your Outschooler!
Watch for me and my son in a recent Good Morning America episode featuring our part in an awesome autism awareness transit project!Reviews
