一對一私人寫作/自然拼讀課程

Hi...I’m Kristin!  I have been in education for the past 25 years, ranging from early childhood through upper elementary school!  My Bachelor’s Degree is in Child Development, with a minor in Music; and I hold a Master’s Degree/Teaching Credential in Cross-Cultural Teaching.  At this point in my career, I have worked as a lead elementary school teacher in both fourth and first grades, training and leading a team of teachers in creating engaging, developmentally-appropriate curriculum utilizing active learning strategies and differentiated instruction to meet the needs of our diverse learning community.  I also function as a mentor to new teachers, and often present on innovative teaching strategies, including promoting student engagement within the classroom through incorporating the Multiple Intelligences, helping to create a growth mindset, and establishing positive and trusting classroom management strategies.  

English/Language Arts is my absolute favorite subject to teach, and I love incorporating phonics and writing strategies!  Within early elementary school, there is such a range in students’ feelings/abilities, and small groups offer the perfect opportunity to develop the reluctant learner, and also to challenge the learner who is looking for deeper enrichment opportunities!  I look forward to helping your learner grow and succeed in their writing abilities!
