About the store

Experience

I am a National Board Certified first grade teacher with 19 years in the classroom. My goal is to make learning as fun and engaging as possible, and instill a lifelong love for learning in my students.

Teaching style

I am a facilitator in the classroom as I guide my first graders towards independence, self-sufficiency, and interaction with one another. The classroom is designed to be a community that is supportive, kind, and encouraging. My end goal is to motivate, excite, and instill in each child a love for learning and an appreciation for the effort they apply each day.
