Hello! My name is Miss T. I’m a certified primary school teacher with a Master of Teaching and a Bachelor of Arts majoring in Second Language Education. I have several years of classroom experience delivering all aspects of the primary (elementary) curriculum, working with children aged 5 to 13. My expertise is within the 6-9-year-old range. I also have experience teaching the Montessori Method, reflected in my calm and caring teaching persona. My specialties are literacy, literature, ESOL, mathematics, visual arts, social-emotional skills, and wellbeing. I absolutely love teaching writing - there is so much room for creativity and personal voice! I find great joy in extending gifted learners just as much as accelerating those who may need a boost and have experience in delivering targeted curriculum to both.
Homework Offered
There are 5-6 follow-up activities provided per lesson. I highly recommend students complete these activities in sequential order as they are cumulative and scaffold student success when beginning the following lesson. From Lesson 2, one of the activities will be a review of the previous lesson to solidify memory retention. Students are welcome to share their work with me, and I will give feedback based on the work submitted each week.1 - 2 hours per week outside of class
