Summary
Teaching math and making it fun is the reason I got my degree in education. I love to plan themed learning days, incorporate song and dance into my lessons, and ultimately help my students succeed in all areas of their lives. Building relationships with students is what I miss most about being in the classroom. I also enjoy collaborating with other teachers and analyzing data to drive instruction for improvements. I am always open for constructive criticism that will improve my teaching methods.
