Teacher expertise and credentials
Texas Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
I am a former elementary school classroom teacher and now a current stay at home mom to a 4 year old son. I have a Bachelor's degree in Communications from the University of Texas at Austin and I also hold state licensure to teach grades PreK-6. I have taught 3rd and 4th grade and then spent the last 8 years of teaching in the 1st grade classroom! I also currently teach English online to students in China. Teaching is one of my favorite things! Outside of my virtual classroom, I enjoy spending time with my family, watercoloring, and working on digital art. I look forward to seeing you in the classroom!
