Teaching style
I LOVE teaching and am a big believer that happy kids = kids who are learning at their greatest potential. I love to incorporate classroom meetings into my week and believe that a positive environment in a classroom is so important. I love to incorporate as many learning styles as possible when teaching, and have a huge focus on students becoming leaders throughout each day. Students need to be empowered!
