I have a Master of Art degree in Teaching and a Bachelor of Science degree in Early Childhood Education. I taught for 15 years focusing on early childhood education with an emphasis on first and second grade. I am passionate about teaching as I believe there is no greater reward than to watch a child grow and flourish through learning. I believe education is a gift that I can provide to children to aid them in their journey through life. I am most passionate about teaching students in reading and math. I will strive to guide your child to be successful. I will treat your child with respect and compassion thereby encouraging self-confidence. My personal hobbies are reading, exercising, spending time with family and chasing my Golden Doodle!
