About the store
I began my teaching journey in second grade, where I spent six wonderful years before venturing into the world of first grade. For 22 years, I reveled in the innocence and excitement that comes with shaping young minds at such a pivotal stage of learning. After 32 years in the profession, I took a leap and moved to third grade, where I've spent the last four years finding new joys and challenges.

Experience

I began my teaching journey in second grade, where I spent six wonderful years before venturing into the world of first grade. For 22 years, I reveled in the innocence and excitement that comes with shaping young minds at such a pivotal stage of learning. After 32 years in the profession, I took a leap and moved to third grade, where I've spent the last four years finding new joys and challenges.

Teaching style

"Love those kids" is my teaching style. I definitely have my beliefs in teaching after 30 years, but I am always willing to try the new trends. What has never changed for me is "loving those kids." I truly believe that if your class feels your care, love, and enthusiasm for spending everyday with them, learning will happen no matter what.
