Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi there, thank you for showing an interest in my classes! My name is Ms. Michelle Miller and I hope to see you in my classroom! I hold a Bachelors Degree in both, Elementary Education and Special Education. I also hold a Masters Degree in Educational Leadership. Previously I was a public school teacher. I had a blast hosting interns while teaching first, second, third, fourth, and fifth grade! I currently teach and supervise in the Early Childhood and Special Education department at Towson University. I enjoy educating future teachers while emphasizing the need for learning to be hands-on and engaging! I have enjoyed teaching a wide-range of students and I firmly believe that each child is unique and learns in a different way. My passion for teaching continues to shine during each of my online lessons! We will be singing while learning story elements, become detectives while searching for the main idea, and we will be going on a safari while looking for text features! Along with reading lessons, writing will be a blast while learning all of the secret tricks to becoming a magical writer! Throughout each lesson, respect and support will always be given to each student. I will promote a safe and EXCITING learning environment for the children in order for everyone to reach their full potential! I will always BELIEVE in my students and I look forward to having you in my classroom community!
