Teacher expertise and credentials
I am a passionate educator with a Masters in Educational Leadership!!!
I believe teaching should be super -duper fun! My philosophy is that WE all are lifelong leaners. I enjoy learning new things and often take courses to enhance my knowledge. It is my belief that each child has a unique learning ability which should be nurtured. It is a teacher's job to facilitate or guide learning as student's make discoveries and learning gains. Students should have a choice in their learning and also guide conversations around their progress and goals. Most importantly, I believe in teaching the whole child from social to academics.
I love to teach reading, math, technology, problem based learning and also crafting/cooking! I have been an educator for 18 years teaching and leading in both public and non-profit sectors. I have taught in all demographics including gifted students as well as managed a gifted program for three years. My most recent experience is Assistant Principal of an Elementary School. My strengths are designing & differentiating curriculum for all types of learners and personalized learning. A fun fact about me is I am launching a clothing line for boys designed by me!Reviews
