"Hi! My name is Joelle, and I'm here on WyzAnt to find kids who are wanting to reach their full potential with my help and support. I am one month away from receiving my teaching certificate after my first year of full-time teaching. I came to the teaching profession later than most, but truly believe that this is my calling and where I can best use my talents and abilities. I'm passionate about helping every student I work with, whether in my classroom or as a tutor, surprise themselves with what they're capable of.

As an educator, I realize that we all learn in different ways and I'm committed to doing whatever it takes to find what works for my students. I believe in keeping up-to-date on the most current teaching methods and research and implementing what I learn in my lessons/classroom. You will not get the same-old-same-old with me - we will find what inspires and excites your learner!

I have a degree in a science field - anthropology. I have taken a variety of science courses during my years as a student, including biology, chemistry, geography, and physics.

I have a love and a passion for the written word. I have studied English literature extensively and have taken a wide variety of writing courses, both of which I excelled at. I currently teach 5th grade writing professionally, and love the challenge of turning somewhat apathetic students into skilled, interested writers.

Contact me to ask any questions you may have or to schedule lesson! I look forward to hearing from you!" less...
