I am a college graduate from Northern Illinois University. I have been working with kids for over 12 years. I have worked with kids from pre-K to 8th grade. Throughout my experience, I learned that I really enjoyed work with older kids. I liked the fact that I wasn't just teaching them how to do things. I was also mentoring them.

I am very passionate about working with kids because they really are the future. I like being able to have an impact on their growth and development. It gives me joy to see a student accomplish something that they thought was impossible. In reality, nothing is impossible, every kid can learn.
