Bio
Are you looking for an experienced elementary teacher to help support your child academically? I would love to help! After 18 years, I know how to engage students and build their confidence, so the learning can begin. Elementary school is what I know and do best! I incorporate music, movement and manipulatives to help promote concrete learning and participation. I am trained in the Orton Gillingham approach to teaching reading and am a National Board Certified teacher in reading and writing ages 3-12. I use a document camera, so your child can see everything from the comfort of their home. Check out my schedule and book your next session with me.
Teacher Specialization
I've been teaching for 18 years in the public school classroom setting. I have taught in urban and rural schools in Illinois, Indiana, and Kentucky while tutoring off and on during those 18 years from my home and the public library. I have spent my years in kindergarten, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grades as a regular education classroom teacher. My district was fully virtual the entire first year of Covid, so I am very familiar with online teaching techniques and tools.
