Hello! I am Teacher Nikki!
I am a mother of four wonderful children, now aged 28, 26, 24, and 16. I hold a B.S. in Early Childhood Education and Special Education, a master’s degree in Reading Instruction, and a specialist degree in Instructional Leadership. With 24 years of professional teaching experience, I have had the privilege of working with students from Pre-K through 8th grade. Additionally, I volunteer at my family church, assisting students up to 12th grade, and I also serve as an ESL tutor for students learning English. I love working with students and helping them discover the joy of learning.
Outside of teaching, I am an avid reader and love to cook delicious meals and treats for my family and friends. Some of my favorite book series include Harry Potter, The Hunger Games, and The Lord of the Rings Trilogy. Teaching is not just my profession; it’s my passion, and I find it incredibly rewarding and enjoyable.
I look forward to the opportunity to work with your child and help them succeed!Reviews
