"Hi, I would LOVE the opportunity to work with your child! I am passionate about education and the importance of children developing a life long love of learning and the ability to learn independently. I recently retired from a 30 year teaching career in the Pike's Peak Region. I taught mostly primary students, but have experience through 6th grade. Most of those years were spent in the classroom where I was responsible for teaching all the core curriculum. I have also spent many hours on the other side of the desk as a student refining my craft across the curriculum and learning strategies to improve the learning of individual students.

You will find me extremely reliable and dedicated. I will work hard to get to know your child as an individual and as a learner and am more than willing to modify my strategies to better meet their needs. I will use methods that make learning fun and engaging while having high expectations. I will share my own learning experiences and interests with your child. I look forward to sharing my passion with your child and learning from them." less...
