Teaching style
I have always used Strategic Teaching strategies in my classroom. I taught using cooperative groups when everyone around me thought I was crazy. I am trained in the Science of Reading and Orton Gillingham. I use whole group and small group differentiated instruction. My classroom management style is based on rewards and consequences. Since becoming an Instructional Coach, I have enjoyed supporting teachers as they learn and use new strategies.
