During Covid shutdowns and quarantines I discovered that my students and I loved the online platform. I taught in a one to one school. Every student had a laptop as well as a school hotspot if their family asked for one. I chose not to do the minimum "office hours" as my school required. I felt this did not meet my students' needs. I ran an online classroom during regular school hours as well as recorded the class for those students who were unable to connect with us or needed to hear the lesson more than once. My experience as a principal resulted in greatly improved learning for all students. The gifted students improved as well as those with learning disabilities. I believe in high expectations for all. High expectations that are attainable 🍎Mrs. Pope - Hello! My name is Ashley Flynn and I specialize in Typing classes for the Apples2Zippers organization on Outschool.

I hold a bachelor's degree in Spanish Education and am currently working on my master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction. I have teaching experience in elementary, middle, and high school. I currently teach Spanish at the high school level. I enjoy teaching students of all ages and watching them grow and learn. I am very passionate about teaching in general and want to help students learn valuable life skills such as typing to help them succeed in the future.
