As a 2013 graduate of Fitchburg State University, I graduated with a dual major of Special Education, Moderate Disabilities, grades PreK-8 and Elementary Education, grades 1-6. I earned my degree on graduation night with Cum Laude Honors. I am also a Certified Teacher through the MA Department of Early Education & Care for Infants and Toddlers, and a Certified Lead Teacher for Preschoolers/Pre-K. I have worked in the toddler, preschool, and Pre-K classrooms. Most recently, in February of 2019, I earned my 4. 0 Masters Degree in Integrated Curriculum, with a Focus Study of Special Education. My teaching and working experiences in a number of different classrooms and multiple ages, have truly taught me the value of patience and encouragement in all classrooms, but especially in the special education classroom. I work closely with each student, providing the individualized support and praise they require to be successful in all activities and academic areas.
