My name is Jamie Nelsen, I am currently a second-grade teacher with experience teaching multiple grade levels from early years to fourth-grade. I just completed my 8th year of full time teaching, and I have also worked as a substitute teacher in Orlando Florida for 2 years.  The past 8 years I have been working in international schools around the world, I have experience with both the Common Core and the British National Curriculum.  I love traveling the world and spending time with my family especially my new niece in Chicago.  I work with students to develop their independence and ability to learn skills by thinking through problems instead of asking for help.  I believe that every child needs to be given the skills that they need to be successful, which include learning how to learn so that they can discover their own interests and learn more about it in a powerful, meaningful way, that will encourage lifelong learning!
