About the store
Supporting struggling readers on their journey to success in reading and writing is my true passion. Since beginning my teaching career in 2010, I have had the privilege of teaching various early grades, which sparked my dedication to helping students develop strong reading foundations. Over the course of my career, I spent nine years teaching 1st grade, one year teaching 2nd grade, and another year teaching 3rd grade. Currently, I serve as a reading interventionist—a role I deeply enjoy and find incredibly fulfilling!

Teaching style
I am passionate about creating meaningful, hands-on learning experiences for students. My educational background reflects this commitment: I earned a Bachelor's degree with a focus on the Montessori teaching method and Early Childhood Education. I further deepened my expertise with a Master’s degree in Elementary Reading, where I specialized in research-based strategies and interventions designed to help students strengthen their reading skills.
