While I love working with students, I want to expand my reach to have a positive impact beyond the classroom. I have a passion for social studies and curriculum development that I want to use to help teachers transform their instruction and the academic success of students. I believe IXL is a leader in providing individualized, engaging curriculum to students. As an educator who remained in the classroom during the COVID pandemic, I understand how important it is for teachers to have tools to meet diverse learning needs. In my own classroom IXL has transformed my students' confidence and increased test scores. Please see my graduate portfolio on the left for examples of my writing skills and educational philosophy.
