TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I have always had a desire to teach. I student taught 1st grade, worked as an RTI Instructional Assistant the following year, and taught 2nd grade the year after that. I have taught Kindergarten for 3 years since. my heart is with the little people. I aim to create all of my worksheets and learning material to be clear, informative, imaginative, and engaging.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I believe hands-on activities leave a lasting impression on most students. My experience suggests that rhymes, songs, and games can really help hard-to-reach children also. I always make sure everything I create is relevant and meaningful; I strive to make my materials fun and interactive as well.
