Simons in Second

I have been teaching for 12 years and have taught 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grades in that time. I have experience teaching a range of students with various learning needs and have extensive experience integrating technology in my classroom.

My teaching style is hands-on learning that engages students' senses. I love to get my students moving, collaborating, and creating.

I earned my B.S in Elementary Education with a minor in TESOL from Brigham Young University and my M.Ed in Instructional Technology from Kennesaw State University.

I am a passionate educator who believes that all children can learn and everyone adds value to the classroom. As the mother of a neuro-diverse child, it's important to me to make sure that I advocate for all my students' learning needs and collaborate with families, colleagues, and other stakeholders to ensure the success of every child in my class. I have extensive experience using technology for blended learning in the classroom, which has improved my instruction for all students and learning styles.
