"I have been teaching since 1991. I have licenses in both WI and MN. I earned my MEd writing my thesis on assessment. I have experience as a reading recovery teacher and a Kindergarten readiness teacher. I have also taught Pre K, K, 1st, and 5th.

I'm a mom and a grandma. I have a flexible and fun demeanor and easily relate to kids. A personal connection of mutual respect is essential to this process. I like to work with your child's teacher if possible. Let's talk!

Grammar and writing has always been a specialty of mine. I believe writing to read is an excellent practice to improve overall reading skills.

I have taught in elementary since 1991. I am a spelling fanatic and former spelling champ!

I use Spaulding's phonograms to help kids see and hear the chunks that lead to spelling and reading success.

Let's talk!" less...
