I am very passionate about teaching and the children that I work with. I love getting the "ah-ha" moment when they finally understand the concept that is being taught. That moment is most rewarding. I teach through exploration, discovery, and interest of the child. I believe as a teacher that I am also a learner and always will be. Therefore if my student does not understand a particular topic and the way I am delivering it I will regroup and try something else. I have my Master's degree in Literacy education and my Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education. I currently hold three certifications, an Early childhood B-2, a Childhood education 1-6, and a Literacy education B-6. I have had many opportunities to work with children in a variety of settings.

I am very patient and laid back and really want to provide the best care possible to all children that I teach. I believe that students learn best when they are completely involved in the lesson.
