Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from Central Bible College / Evangel University
I have the privilege of teaching a diverse range of classes. In the mornings, I bring the magic of learning to our enthusiastic kindergarteners, guiding them through their first steps in education. I embark on adventures with the inquisitive minds of first graders, helping them build a strong foundation for their academic journey. Additionally, I lead a dynamic and interactive reading group, where we explore the enchanting world of literature together.
I hold a Bachelor's degree in International Studies. Over the past 15 years, I have been dedicated to honing my teaching skills through various roles in both public and private educational settings. This experience has equipped me with a deep understanding of the unique needs and potentials of young learners at every stage.
At the heart of my teaching philosophy lies a belief in the transformative power of a nurturing and inclusive learning environment. I see each child as a unique individual, deserving of respect, encouragement, and the freedom to express themselves authentically. I am committed to fostering a love for learning by infusing creativity, curiosity, and a sense of wonder into every lesson. It is my aspiration that through personalized guidance and a focus on social-emotional development, I not only cultivate academic excellence but also empower students with the skills and confidence to navigate the world around them.
You see, beyond the walls of school, I'm also the proud mom of two incredible boys who keep me on my toes, and I wouldn't have it any other way.
Balancing teaching and motherhood is a whirlwind, but it's a whirlwind I wholeheartedly embrace. I believe that being their teacher and mom gives me a unique perspective and an extra sprinkle of magic in our everyday adventures.
So, dear families, I invite you to join me on this lively expedition. Together, we'll explore the wonders of education, celebrate the joys of childhood, and cherish every moment of this incredible journey.
