About the store
I am an Early Childhood Special Education Teacher. Previously I was teaching English while living in Colombia. Over the years I have taught many age groups. Before I went to Colombia to teach English, I taught preschool at a home-based preschool in the US. I taught preschool for two years and developed the literacy-based curriculum, which they are currently using at the preschool. Before teaching preschool, I worked in a middle school math classroom, along side a mentor teacher. I was at this school, in Boston, for two years assisting in various ways. I graduated college with my bachelors in Early Childhood Education and Human Development. Teaching has always been a passion of mine and I would love to be able to share my knowledge.
