My name is Leah Hillenbrand, and I hold a Bachelor's degree in Elementary and Special Education from Indiana University. I just finished my 9th year of teaching. I specialize in elementary subjects, as well as special education. My teaching philosophy centers on building strong relationships with my students, allowing me to tailor my instruction to meet their individual needs and foster a supportive learning environment. I am passionate about helping students of all abilities succeed and thrive academically. I believe in the importance of differentiated instruction and have successfully worked with students ranging from those below grade level to those achieving above it. In my spare time, I enjoy reading and spending time outside.
