I have 11 years of classroom experience teaching students of all elementary school ages. I have taught departmentalized classes of music, English, writing, computers, and art. I have taught remedial reading, writing, math, spelling, social studies, science, English. I have taught Language Arts to Gifted & Talented students ages 5-10. I currently work as a reading and math Title 1 teacher in nonpublic schools. My goal is to find what works for each individual child, providing each child with the best education possible.
