My name is Emily Collins, I am 22 years old and from McAlester, Oklahoma, and I believe deeply in the power of reading and the doors it opens for every child. As a special education teacher, I have had the joy of working with students of all abilities, learning styles, and backgrounds, and I truly love helping each child discover their strengths. I am passionate about creating a safe, supportive space where all students feel confident, capable, and excited to learn. Reading is one of my greatest loves, and I enjoy helping students build literacy skills that will empower them for life. Whether your child needs extra support, enrichment, or simply someone who believes in them, I am here to help them succeed!

In my spare time, I love doing volunteer work through organizations like Girl Scouts, sewing, watching scary movies, hanging out with my cats, and reading!
