Teacher expertise and credentials
Non-US Teaching Certificate
New Mexico Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Master's Degree in Education from Regis University
I am a licensed K-8 teacher with 17+ years of experience teaching ages 2-16 in a variety of capacities.  My classroom experience has mainly been in Kindergarten and Preschool but I have also taught two-year-old preschool, first grade, second grade, and fourth grade.  My most important role is as a homeschool mom to three wonderfully curious children.  We are a neurodiverse family and I believe in creating opportunities for all children to learn and grow.  My teaching experiences include a variety of settings: Montessori, public schools, private schools, and international schools both in-person and virtual.  I have been teaching English as a Second Language online for the last 5 years.  I have taught in the US states of Colorado, Wisconsin, and New Mexico as well as the countries of Kuwait and Fiji.  I love teaching young children using hands-on and multisensory approaches, including games and songs where I can.  Learning should be fun and I always do my best to help children enjoy their journey.  

I hold a Master of Education degree from Regis University in Colorado.  My Bachelor of Music degree comes from the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh with an emphasis in Flute Performance.  While in Kuwait I studied through the Educational Collaborative for International Schools and Cambridge University to obtain my International Teacher Certificate.  I believe education is a lifelong journey and am always working to further my knowledge and skills through self-study, workshops, and courses.

I am passionate about traveling and learning about different cultures.  I live with my husband and three children in the USA.  Together we enjoy hiking, traveling, swimming, playing games, and learning together.
