Class Experience

US Grade 4 - 7
Everyone loves a good challenge, puzzle, riddle, or word problem. They can keep your brain sharp and encourage great problem solving skills, all while having so much fun! Brain teasers have been known to improve memory and boost overall brain function, so let's give our brains a healthy challenge. 

What you can expect from this ongoing class is various challenges, puzzles, riddles, and word problems, both in math and language arts. We will look at different puzzles and riddles throughout the class. I will encourage individual problem solving by reading and rereading the riddle, which is an important strategy. We will use different strategies throughout to help us solve the puzzles. Hints will be available as needed. I will ask the students to put the answers into the chat so everyone gets a turn to try and solve the puzzles. This is meant to be fun, so I will remind everyone that if we can't solve it, it's okay! If we can't figure out the answer as a class, I will provide the answer after an appropriate amount of wait time. Each class, I will remind learners to not share the answer with the class and that it is okay to not know the answers. 

This purpose of this class is to encourage learners to think and stretch their brains. The riddles and puzzles will help your learner practice logic, work on memory, and engage in pattern connection observations. They are geared toward upper elementary ages and above. No supplies are needed. The classes are stand alone and do not build on one another.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Idaho Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Master's Degree in Education from SUNY Buffalo State
Bachelor's Degree in Education from University of Idaho
Hi! I’m a certified Elementary Educator with a Master’s in Educational Leadership and over 18 years of classroom experience, both in the U.S. and around the world. My teaching journey has taken me to international schools in New Zealand, Kazakhstan, Thailand, and Bosnia and Herzegovina, where my family and I had the privilege of living for 15 years. These global experiences have shaped my teaching philosophy and deepened my commitment to working with students from diverse cultural backgrounds.

I specialize in small-group and one-on-one instruction, where I can truly connect with learners, foster curiosity, and empower them to take ownership of their learning. I believe that meaningful relationships are the foundation for authentic education—and I strive to make every student feel valued, seen, and supported.

On Outschool, I teach a wide range of classes including various levels of math, problem-solving sessions, world travel and geography lessons, book clubs, nature journaling, tutoring, reading comprehension courses, and novel studies. No matter the topic, I prioritize engagement, quality instruction, and making learning fun and relevant.

Outside the classroom, I’m a passionate long-distance trail runner, an avid reader, and a lifelong traveler. I love being outdoors and believe that adventure, both in life and learning, helps us grow in the most meaningful ways. I’m also a proud mom of two young children and married to a fellow teacher (you might see him on Outschool, too!).

I’m excited to connect with your learner and be part of their educational journey!
