Hello! I'm Teacher Vanessa. I have my Bachelor's degree in Dietetics from the University of Northern Colorado. I have worked with children and taught science, food and nature related classes for 15 years. I have taught online for 3 years and I'm comfortable navigating the online classroom format. 

I currently homeschool my 6-year-old son and teach ESL online. In our homeschool community, I enjoy teaching food science, nature and seasonal lessons.  I'm passionate about teaching kids where our food comes from, what's inside of it, the science behind cooking it and how our body uses it! I love creating lessons specific to the seasons and holidays. I'm also planning to teach classes related to the human body and nature.  I will be primarily teaching children between the ages of 6-12.

I create interactive classes by adding games, videos, interactive slides and hands-on activities. I believe children learn best when they are relaxed and having fun. I want to have an inclusive classroom environment where students feel comfortable and encouraged to engage with each other.  I'm a fun, relaxed and patient teacher and I can't wait to teach your children!
