My name is Kailee Trippett and I taught 2nd grade for 7 years. I love teaching strategies and tools to help students become confident and successful readers, writers, and mathematicians. While I offer many 2nd-grade core classes, I also offer some fun supplemental classes. I have taught theatre, music and drama for 2 years, and enjoy those subjects as well. I can't wait to meet your learner and see them grow!
