My experiences include:

My teaching values and styles:
💟 Fun and laughter are the secrets to retention
💟 A stair-step approach makes any topic easy to grasp
💟 Teacher energy is important for engagement
💟 Positive reinforcement through kindness and understanding
💟 Making sure every student is seen and heard
💟 A classroom should be a flexible space for all types of personalities
💟 Even "boring" subjects or topics can be taught in a fun way

My favorite things include reading, book hunting, laughing, writing, watching movies, and playing games! I have a cranky grey Tabby cat named Potter, a codependent Rat Terrier named Pippen, a distinguished orange Tabby cat named Salinger, a sweet Cockatiel named Poppy (who loves to give kisses and say "baby bird" & "peek-a-boo!"), and two precocious children (ages 14 and 17). 

See you in the classroom soon!

Love,
Teacher Bethanie
