Experience
I have been a classroom teacher for the past 6 years in the School District of Philadelphia. For two years I have been a model classroom teacher for the Children's Literacy Initiative which is an amazing literacy program. From them I have learned all about the best teaching practices and how to help each of my individual students make strides to become better readers. In my Masters of Education Reading Specialist program I have learned about diagnosing "in danger" learners and how to help them grow and achieve. The mathematics programs I have taught include Everyday math and Singapore math. I like to teach math in fun, hands on, and interesting ways.

Hobbies
I love spending time with my family and friends in our wonderful city of Philadelphia! Especially when the weather is nice you will find me at The Oval or Spruce Street Harbor Park enjoying some yummy food truck treats. My husband and I live in Fairmount with our two adorable kitties, Otto and Penny. I love to read, especially comic books. I love movies, especially comic book movies. As a teacher I get bored over the summer and I want to be able to help students and spend my summer wisely! I look forward to meeting and working with your child.
