Experience

Hi there! I've been a teacher for 12 years and absolutely love it! I've taught 3rd, 4th, and 7th grade. I currently teach STEM for ages k4-5th. I love integrating STEM in my lessons and providing more higher-order thinking in different challenges.

Teaching style

I believe in active learning and fostering an environment that encourages all students to achieve their learning goals. If you walked into my classroom you would see a controlled chaos approach; where students are engaged in projects, centers, and various activities. The majority of my lessons are centered around STEAM- I believe students learn more when they get to construct, make, engineer, and try new approaches!
