I have been in education for 25+ years. I am currently an Instructional Coach on a K-3 elementary campus. My classroom teaching experience is in 3rd grade (10 years) and 4th grade (5 years). Because of my current position, I have gained a lot of experience in teaching K-2 as well.. I have learned that I love the younger elementary kids as much as the older ones.
I spend most of my day working with and for teachers. We collaborate on instructional strategies, the whole child, and targeted instruction. I tell the teachers I work with that my goal is to help make their very difficult job easier.
I am also the RTI, 504, and building test coordinator. Therefore, I also spend a lot of time working on and planning interventions and test prep.
