I started off my career as a 4th grade teacher for 4 years, 5th grade teacher for 5 years, 6th grade teacher for 2 years, and then an elementary math coach for 2 years. As an instructional coach I worked closely with first through fifth grade teaches on developing lessons that would bring math to life for my students. I then moved to the high school for a bit teaching Algebra I and II. I taught 8th grade for three years along with Algebra I and have spent the last two years teaching 7th grade and Algebra I.
