Passionate/Energetic Elementary Teacher with more than 20 years of experience spanning across grades K-8. Dedicated to developing and implementing diverse curriculum covering a wide range of subjects. Highly skilled at motivating students through positive encouragement and reinforcement of concepts via interactive classroom instruction and observation. Successful in helping students develop strong literacy, numeracy, social and learning skills. Every child has the ability to reach their full potential when they are in a safe environment that encourages and fosters risk taking through a growth mindset. My philosophy guides me to reach every child academically by first reaching them and connecting with them emotionally. Relationships guide my teaching.
