Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi there!
In the classroom, I taught first through fourth grades. My final year, I team taught and focused primarily on English Language Arts and Social Studies while my partner took on Math and Science. I enjoyed this set-up because I was able to dig deeper into my passion for reading and writing. My Masters Thesis was on Reading Engagement and I always try to instill a love for reading in my classroom. I also got to reach more children that year since we were sharing our classes.I ended up leaving the classroom to work in a non-profit, where I still got to work with kids of all ages (pre-school through high school), but also their parents, teachers, and community members.
A few years ago, my husband, son, and I moved to my husband's native country, Canada. Now that our son is in high school, I feel it is a good time to return to my teaching roots. I love the idea of teaching online rather than in the classroom because I can meet and work with kids from all over!
Moving to Quebec from California was a bit of a shock. I had to learn how to shovel snow and walk down an icy driveway. We share our home with a 12 year old husky mix, a one year old lab mix, and a box turtle of an undetermined age (but she's at least 32 years old, since that's how long I have had her). I love to travel and explore new places. When I can't travel, I try to play tourist at home and enjoy visiting new to me places in our area. In the Fall and early Summer, I enjoy hiking with the dogs and the occasional bike ride. In the Winter, I try to ski at least once and will take the dogs snow-shoeing.
If you see a class that interests you but that doesn't fit with your schedule, please don't hesitate to reach out! I can have some flexibility with scheduling when made aware of timing preferences.Reviews
