About the store

Experience

I have been teaching in a Title I, inner-city school for the past three years, before that I taught at an EI regional program. Most of my experience has been in 2nd grade, but I also have experience teaching special needs in grades K-7th.

Teaching style

I consider myself to be a Professor Lupin type teacher with McGonagall tendencies. :) I want my students to learn by doing, but also believe in firm classroom management.

My own education history

I graduated from Grand Valley State University with a Bachelors degree in Psychology and Special Education with a minor is Elementary. I have an emphasis on Emotional Impairments and Cognitive Impairments.
