About the store
I taught grades 4 through 9 for 17 years in subjects ranging from elementary math to high school algebra and middle school science. Inspiring, motivating, and encouraging students is what I'm most proud of. I am now a full-time math tutor from upper elementary to algebra 1. I love the one-on-one and small group format of my tutoring work. I have also coached girls and boys high school track and cross country for 14 years.
I love to create and write fun, engaging, and purposeful lessons while helping teachers with their day-to-day stresses. TpT is a blessing as it has offered me this unbelievably creative outlet for all of my teaching ideas.
