I have experience as a Reading Recovery Teacher, a K-4 Title I Teacher, and as a classroom teacher of a K-2 multi-grade classroom. In each of these positions, I have had the opportunity to highlight the individual strengths of learners, and to focus on their specific needs. In reading instruction, my personal teaching style is to mesh phonetics, whole language instruction, and the integration of reading and writing as techniques to address individual needs. I believe in the ability of every child to be a successful reader and writer through focused, individualized education

Children learn in different way, and have different levels of enthusiasm for different subjects. I think that the way to encourage a child's success is to identify the ways in which the students learns best, and to understand what subjects/topics interest them.

A Little Bit About Me...

My primary experience in my over twelve years of teaching has been teaching students with special needs, working mostly with younger students with difficulties with reading and writing, or math. When I taught in Virginia my position was split between two K-2 schools, and I became very interested in working with that age group and its particular needs. Because of my background in special education, I am very familiar determining what educational needs students have based on assessments and observations in order to make interventions as effective as possible. Besides the Woodcock Johnson III, I have been trained in using Qualitative Reading Inventories, DRA, and Running Records, and am familiar with Guided Reading, Dibles, and the Spire program. As a Special Education Teacher I have had a lot of experience working with other teachers and specialists to be able to help the students as m ... read more
