"I have been an elementary teacher for nine years, with five years of experience teaching 4th grade and four years in 3rd grade. I graduated from Purdue Fort Wayne and have always been passionate about helping young learners build a strong foundation in all subjects. Teaching has been more than just a job for me—it's a calling. I strive to create an engaging and supportive environment where students feel confident in their abilities and excited to learn.

One of my greatest joys in teaching is helping students develop strong writing skills. I love guiding them through the process of understanding text structure, which allows them to organize their thoughts clearly and effectively. Writing is a powerful tool for expression and communication, and I take pride in helping students refine their skills. Similarly, I am passionate about teaching reading comprehension, ensuring that students not only read fluently but also deeply understand and connect with the material.

I believe that every student has the potential to succeed with the right support and encouragement. My approach is to make learning interactive, engaging, and tailored to each student's needs. Whether it's helping a student grasp a difficult concept, develop a love for writing, or improve their reading comprehension, I am committed to making a positive impact on their academic journey." less...
