I have taught the last 6 years in 1st grade. I am an enthusiastic and dedicated teacher and a great communicator and have used these qualities for the last 14 years when teaching in the primary elementary education in the classroom. Teaching is a passion, knowledge of a subject/s, and a love for children. I am always finding the best practices to help motivate their learning and continually strive for their growth in all academic areas. I have an optimistic and positive outlook for each student. I am always looking to better the child in their areas of interest and seek to guide them to have a love for life long learning.
