"Hello there!

I’m thrilled that you’re exploring ways to support your young learner, and I’d love to share a bit about my journey as an early learning teacher. With over 25 years of experience, I have dedicated my life to understanding the unique needs of children from preschool through grade 4. My passion lies in creating engaging, individualized lesson plans for students who might struggle with traditional learning methods.

I have had the privilege of working with many incredible young minds, and throughout these years, I’ve seen firsthand how tailored approaches can lead to remarkable growth. My Master’s Degree in Elementary Education from The College of William and Mary has equipped me with a solid foundation, but it’s my hands-on experiences and the connections I build with students that truly drive my teaching philosophy.

I understand that each child has their own strengths and interests, and I love to tap into those personal foundations. Whether it's breaking down phonics into bite-sized chunks or introducing math concepts that reveal the "why" behind the numbers, my goal is to make learning fun and accessible. I incorporate games, songs, and imaginative activities that not only engage children but also make each lesson a memorable experience.

Additionally, I have extensive experience working with students with diverse needs, including ADHD, dyslexia, and autism. These unique challenges often require a more creative problem-solving approach, and I thrive on uncovering the individual “puzzle pieces” that help each child shine.

If you’re looking for a dedicated educator who will support your child in a nurturing and effective way, I would love to chat further about how we can work together. Let’s inspire a love of learning that lasts a lifetime!

I look forward to hearing from you!" less...
