My name is Kelli Lord and I love to teach.  I have a wide range of classes that include reading books, circle time, alphabet and number crafts, and book clubs.  I have my associates degree in Early Childhood Education.  I have taught at a Child Development Center for the past 8 years with 18 months - 5 years.  I currently teach a class with 2 year old children during the week.  I also work with the children's department at my church on Sunday's doing music and drama.  In the past I have worked with school age students at an afterschool program.  Every year one of my favorite things to is to travel to Mexico with a team from my church doing Kid's Clubs and working with children in one of the local orphanages.  I love spending time with my family.  I love learning and being able to teach students.  I believe children should have fun while learning.  Each child is important and needs to be taught in a way that will help them succeed.
