I teach to inspire students, of all ages, to learn how to think. Students become inspired to learn when they can ask questions, take risks, make mistakes, and reflect. Classes include 1 to 1 tutoring, experiments, investigations, design challenges, and creative art activities.
Ms Simply Sarah holds a Masters Degree in Education with a Bachelor Degree in Communication.
Her current certifications include a Gifted and Talented Endorsement, English as a Second Language Endorsement (ESL), and Elementary Education.
