Hello! My name is Mrs. Candice and I love teaching and learning! After many years of classroom teaching, I've helped hundreds of children learn to love reading and gain confidence in early math. I've also fallen in love with online teaching and am excited to help even more children using this powerful medium! I believe in making learning fun and supporting a high level of learner engagement!
I love writing children's books that teach academic and social concepts using stories that kids can relate to. I believe in the power of stories to teach content and in hands-on learning to strengthen understanding.
I look forward to working with you and your child!Reviews
