Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello friends!
My name is Helen Howard. I teach mostly reading and comprehension classes. I also enjoy art projects. My professional background includes 13 years of experience teaching Kindergarten through third grade. I love reading stories! I have a Bachelor of Science and a Master of Education with a Concentration in Reading from the University of NC at Greensboro.
I believe that all children can and will learn. The teacher's role (that's me!) is to act as a guide to facilitate this learning. I believe that all students should be able to have curiosities and questions that direct their individual learning. I assist my students in expressing themselves through free talk and partner discussions in every lesson. I aim to bring an open mind, a positive attitude, and high expectations to my classroom each day. I bring consistency, diligence, and warmth to my classroom in the hope that I can ultimately inspire and encourage such traits in my students as well.
I am originally from NJ. I have a 19 year old cat named Mackenzie. She's been with me since I was in college! My husband and I celebrated our marriage on 7/2/16. We love to travel!! We have been to the Dominican Republic, Costa Rica, Bahamas, Cancun, and Los Cabos. We also visit Las Vegas twice a year! We love to visit Myrtle Beach,SC and Gatlinburg, TN yearly. We have a 3 year old dog named Reese. She's a shepherd mix. We also have a daughter named Alexandra! She was born on 9/19/19. Her birthday is a palindrome! She is our world, and I am so fortunate to be able to stay home with her!! I am also a Realtor in NC.
