I am a current K through 8th grade teacher. I became interested in teaching young children while in college. During this time I volunteered at a local elementary school. While tutoring I helped teach Kindergarten through 4th grade students how to read and comprehend text. I have most recently taught second, third, and fourth grades and will be teaching 5th grade during the 2016-2017 school year. I enjoy to teach yourng students mathematic because I enjoy using manipulatives either virtual or tangible to help students learn. I have been involved with private tutoring for about six months now. This school year I have tutored students in groups of three. I am currently in the process of adding a mathematics endorsement to my teaching license. I will also be improving my practice by returning to school next winter to pursue an Ed.D program.

Q&A with Carnisha

I believe that all children are individuals, and should be taught in a fashion that addresses their individual learning styles and passions as frequently as there is opportunity. I also believe in allotting extra one on one time for struggling students, and allowing more challenging opportunities for advanced students.
