Teaching style
I believe learning should challenge students, spark curiosity, and—most importantly—be fun! But here’s the secret: none of that happens without trust. Building a genuine, respectful relationship with every student is always my first priority. When kids know you’re in their corner—truly believe in them, care for them, and cheer them on—that’s when the real magic happens. And honestly? That’s what makes teaching the best job in the world. 🌟

My own education history
I grew up in the Netherlands, also known as Holland, and low and behold I now live in Holland, Michigan. Even as a child in the Netherlands, I always wanted to be a teacher. I earned my degree in the field of Psychology and Special Education from Grand Valley State University.
Additional biographical information
When I was a little girl, teaching was my thing. I spent hours and hours making lessons and getting my friends to be my students. Fast forward to today, and I still believe that I was born to be a teacher. I absolutely love my job and have over 15 years experience teaching special education. It is such a blessing to be able to work with students, and lucky me, I get be my student’s teacher for two years . This is an amazing opportunity to foster relationships built on trust and respect. And WOW, then some amazing learning can really happen.
I’ve gotten my love for design from my father who was a design engineer in The Netherlands, my birth country. I thoroughly enjoy graphic design, and find it to be an extra blessing that my two passions have found a place to come together in designing remedial materials.
