Hello Outschool Families,
Four years ago, After a couple decades of teaching in some beautiful schools with amazing students, I decided to make a change. I left behind the "brick and mortar" schools for the online school community. I could not be happier. The online school community still has beautiful schools with amazing students.
I am so happy I made the change. I love teaching or tutoring online. I love connecting with students. I love using games, stories and props to teach students English, Math and English as a Second Language.
I love seeing children learn at their pace. I love seeing the confidence boost in children when they succeed. I love hearing how my lessons have helped children all over the world.
I love that Outschool has provided amazing teachers with amazing children so we can all learn and grow together.
I look forward to helping your students boost their reading, spelling, math and English as a Second Language skills.
Please reach out today if you would like any more information. Be sure to check out my classes.
