Class Experience
Objective: This class will focus on topics specific to your child's learning needs. Please respond with information about what your child is struggling with or would like to explore more of. This information will allow me to build a lesson and classroom environment specific and individualized for your child. This class will deliver direct and explicit instruction tailored to your child's learning needs and learning style. I am certified in grades K-5 Regular Education and K-12 in Special Education. My teaching style in Math is based off of Engaged NY Eureka Math strategies. I will cover math skills from 1st grade - 5th grade. This course can focus on any math topic requested by the learner. I will use a variety of teaching methods when teaching different lessons. I like teaching with visuals, modeling, different types of media (games, google slides, boom cards) and other resources appropriate for my classes. Some important Math skills that are essential to any learner in grades 1-5 are: Number Sense -Place Value/relationship with 10 and Basic Addition/Subtraction Facts, Add and Subtract with and without Regrouping, Basic Multiplication/Division Facts, Multiply/Divide Multi-Digit Numbers, understand Basic Fractions/Benchmark Fractions for Comparing, understanding Decimals (Place Value from millions to thousandths, Adding/Subtracting/Multiplying/Dividing Decimals and Fractions). My teaching style for English Language Arts will be based on Ready Common Core strategies where we will read various texts and practice a specific skill such as: central message, ask and answer questions all while practicing reading fluency, comprehension, and vocabulary.
Learning Goals
The goal of this class is to help your child master a certain skill. I will work with your child to help build confidence in a math content area. This class serves as a "study hall" or "tutoring session" for each learner's individual needs.

I would like to say thank you for taking the time out to read a little bit about me and for considering me as a part of your child’s learning journey! My passion for teaching continues to strengthen as each year passes! I take pride in building relationships with my students. Having a positive and welcoming environment is something that helps facilitate learning which ensures student engagement and success! I strive for my classroom environment to be warm and welcoming. It is important to me that my students are able to make meaningful connections and build confidence. My ultimate goal is to provide the best learning experience for my students that gets them excited and passionate about learning.
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I am currently certified to teach grades Pre-K—5 and Special Education Grades K—12. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I also hold a certification in School Counseling. I have taught (and still teach) in a public school setting going on 13 years. The first 4 years I taught 3rd grade, pre-k and kindergarten. Now, for the past 9 years and counting, I have been teaching Special Education in the Elementary setting. Teaching regular and special education has provided me with countless opportunities to work with a variety of students. I have the ability to differentiate instruction to meet the needs of students. I am also able to individualize lessons and provide direct, explicit instruction by providing modifications and accommodations when necessary.
I was introduced to online teaching when I began my experience of teaching English as a Second Language with VIPkid to students who were learning English. This experience had motivated me to branch out and continue teaching online. It had inspired me to expand my platform providing me with the opportunity of teaching classes online for 5 years. I love meeting new people and being able to help make a difference in a learner’s educational experience.
Thank you for reading, and I hope to work with your child in the future! I am looking forward to meeting many students and exploring new concepts with them.
