Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi! I'm Mrs. Daisy. I am looking forward to getting to know you and your child. 
I have a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education. I am a current third grade teacher in a public school. This is now year eleven! As a classroom teacher, I have worked with a wide range of students, including English Language Learners. My favorite subject to teach is math,  but I enjoy reading books revolving around the holidays. I have taught phonics intervention groups to kindergarten - fifth grade students. I look forward to working with your child and getting to know them!
