I have 28 years of working and teaching experience. It is my mission on Earth to help kids to reach their full potential. It is a career for someone who helps, the students and the teachers. I love my job!!

I have this past summer finished my Letrs training.

I learned a lot of information I may have forgotten along the way.  It was beneficial as I could use many of their strategies as I was teaching at the same time.  I was able to come up with not only strategies from Letrs but other things to try to make learning fun for the kids.
