Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! My name is Brandi Pirkle and live in Cleveland, TN USA. I am a first grade, brick and mortar, teacher of 14 years (and counting)! I have a degree in Elementary Education (grades K-8) and a Master's degree in administration and supervision. I love spending my days with children. I love to share my passions in the classroom by using interactive and engaging lessons. My hope is for all students to feel loved, valued, and comfortable. I give lots of encouragement and praise throughout class. My love for teaching has opened many doors for me including online teaching. I love teaching children from all over the world. I wear many hats throughout the day but my expertise lies in teaching children how to read. I love giving students the tools to be successful when learning. When I am not teaching, I enjoy reading, shopping, budgeting, and spending time with my family.
I hope you will join a class in the near future! Reviews
