Hello! My name is Kathleen M, but everyone calls me Miss Kathleen. All of my classes are safe and inclusive places for all learners.

Teaching is my job, but it’s also my favorite thing ever! I have taught everything from dance, to sign language, to English as a second language, and my students range in age from toddlers to adults. My degrees are in early childhood education and performing arts, I have a TESOL certificate, and I am proud to say that I was chosen as Teacher of the Year while working as a pre-kindergarten teacher. Recently, I have enjoyed homeschooling my own kids, and volunteering as a sign language interpreter at our church. 

I believe that teaching is about creating a rapport between student and teacher, and that by forming positive relationships we can pave the way for creative learning and achievement. Learning should always be fun, and any subject is rich with lessons that connect to life in many ways. 

When I am not teaching, I love gardening, playing games, and going to the ocean with my family and our little rescue dog. Hope to see you soon! :)--Miss Kathleen
