As a dedicated educator with over 30 years of experience, I hold a Master's Degree in Elementary Education and a Specialist Degree in Reading from Nova Southeastern University. In addition, I have a Specialist Degree in ESL from North Central University. My passion lies in fostering a love for Reading-Language Arts, Children's Literature, and Social Studies among my students. I have taught diverse age groups, from preschool to middle school, and have developed a keen ability to engage students through hands-on learning experiences. My teaching philosophy centers on understanding each student's unique learning style, allowing me to tailor my lesson plans to meet their needs effectively. I believe that all students can learn when provided with the right support and encouragement. Witnessing their growth and understanding brings me immense joy, and I continually seek innovative ways to inspire and motivate them in their academic journey.
