I hold a Bachelor's in Media & Communication and a Master's in Elementary Education, with over two years of experience teaching 4th grade and more than three years as a substitute teacher across elementary, middle, and high school levels. I specialize in teaching math, reading, writing, spelling, Virginia Studies history, and science, with experience using the HMH reading curriculum and The Science of Reading approach. I believe learning should be engaging and supportive - where students feel confident exploring new ideas and unafraid to make mistakes.
