Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Education from The Ohio State University
Hi there, I am Leah! I am passionate about nature and science. I have a BA in middle childhood education with concentrations in science and math. Since college I have worked with children from preschool to high school. I am currently a work from home mom, and I've been an online educator since 2017. I believe young learners thrive when they are learning what they want to learn. Think about a time when it was easy for you to learn something? What made it easy? I know it's easy for me to learn when I follow my interests and go where my curiosity leads me. Personally, I love running, hiking, cycling, skiing, and being outside as much as possible. I think my passion for adventure shows up in all my classes. Please let me know if you have any questions or class suggestions.
