Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! I have been an elementary school teacher for 20+ years!! I have taught Preschool through Middle School, but teaching elementary school and art has been my passion. I look forward to teaching classes that involve science, reading, writing and art. I started out as a first grade teacher, and have since been a substitute teacher in all grades, as well as art, music, media, and P.E.
I have two boys, Mason and Maddox who are 12 and 15. We had a wonderful summer going to Disney World, and most recently visiting Mount Rushmore and New York City! I am looking forward to teaching kids who are excited to learn and have fun doing it! I am always creating new classes for our Outschool learners. Let me know what kinds of classes your children are interested in!
