TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I have a Masters in Elementary Education from the University of Nevada, Reno. I have taught 4th, 5th, kindergarten, and 1st grade reading intervention. I'm very creative and love creating educational resources. I do a lot of research and spend a lot of time analyzing curriculum and classroom materials. I love networking with other teachers and sharing ideas.

MY TEACHING STYLE

My teaching style is a mixture of things. I think teachers need to be flexible for their students in order for the classroom to be a successful learning environment. I like to use group discussion and getting students involved in the learning process. I believe that hands-on learning is the best way to learn.
