I am a passionate and dedicated educator with a diverse skill set that makes learning both engaging and effective. As a certified reading teacher, I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to help students develop strong literacy skills.
In addition to my expertise in reading, I am also a certified kids’ yoga instructor. I integrate mindfulness and movement into the classroom, creating a calm and focused learning environment. Through yoga, students learn valuable skills such as self-regulation, concentration, and stress management, which enhance their overall well-being and academic performance.
I also excel as a UIL Ready Writing coach, guiding students to express their thoughts clearly and creatively. With a keen eye for detail and a deep understanding of writing techniques, I help students craft compelling essays and develop a love for writing. My coaching has led many students to achieve success in UIL competitions, fostering a sense of accomplishment and confidence.
With a holistic approach to education, I create a welcoming and fun classroom atmosphere where students feel supported and inspired to reach their full potential. I am committed to nurturing both the academic and emotional growth of each student, making learning a truly enriching experience.
