Hello!  My name is Mrs. Theresa  Howard. I am a  state certified elementary teacher with 25 years of experience in the classroom (K-6). My  endorsements include Early Childhood, Reading and ELL (English as a Second Language). My professional background includes classroom teaching grades 1-3, several years as  an elementary principal and helping over 170 Outschool learners from around the world become more confident and  fluent readers.  Please enjoy perusing the  different levels of reading classes that I offer.
      I am most passionate about helping children build a strong phonics foundation. It is my joy to teach children how to read and to share my love of reading.  I implement fun strategies to provide lessons that motivate students to become more fluent readers. My philosophy in teaching is to  meet learners where they are  and to celebrate their successes each step of the way.   In my spare time I enjoy activities with my family and grandchildren,  swimming and reading a good book!  I look forward to extending these opportunities to more children around the globe!
