Teacher expertise and credentials
My name is Victoria. I am a certified teacher! I have been in education for 8 years. 6 years in the classroom and the last 2 years also online. I love teaching, and have experience working with students from first grade through the high school level. I am currently teaching in high school with students learning English as a new language.
I have a bachelors degree in Elementary Education, and a masters degree in Curriculum and instruction from UNLV. I love working and creating curriculum for my students that best meets their needs.
I live in New York, near Niagara Falls, but I am from Las Vegas. I have experience owning a small business. I am also involved in sports and have taught dance classes. I love baking, planning parties and my favorite color is pink, blush pink though, not bright pink!
I have a 2-year-old boy, Noah and a husband in law enforcement. And I cant forget to mention my 2 pups, Lola and Phoenix.
I have a lot of experience working with students in a small group setting. A lot of my time and experience teaching has been focused on creating curriculum that meets student’s individual needs. I love creating new ways to make curriculum accessible to students.
I think learning should be fun, engaging and a little messy! Students should be provided with as many opportunities as possible to engage and learn. I think the best way to learn is to teach. That is why, in my classroom, you will see ample time for students to share their own thoughts, ideas and projects. I follow an “I Do.. You Watch, You Try... I Help, You Do.. I Watch” teaching model. That means, first, I show you and model. Then, we do it together. After students have the opportunity to try themselves… It looks a little something like this…..
My classroom will provide a safe space for students to feel comfortable to share what they have learned, teach other students something they know and have fun. My goal is for students to feel comfortable in the classroom, which in turns, teaches them to try their best.
You will see lessons aligned with the Common Core curriculum. I have worked with Common Core throughout my entire teaching experience, so if there is a specific standard you would like us to focus on, I can absolutely provide that for your student.
I love incorporating technology in the classroom. You might see classes using the app, Nearpod. This is a fun, interactive app that allows students to play games, and have hands-on experiences with their lessons!
My hope is to create a loving, engaging and exciting community for you and your learner. I hope to see you and your learner in the classroom.
