I have an extensive background working with children in various settings. I have a MS in Applied Behavioral Analysis and a BA in Liberal Arts with an emphasis in Elementary School Education. I have over 20 years experience teaching in the classroom, small groups, as well as in 1:1 settings with both neuro-typical and special needs children. I have experience working in both the home and school settings. I specialize in working with toddler through elementary age children. I believe in a multi-pronged approach that teaches academic, critical thinking, and social skills. Although structured teaching time is important, I believe learning should be fun and incorporate teaching moments into art, play, and everyday activities. I come equipped with my own bag of fun so that children are excited to see me and what n I would love to talk with you and find out how I can help fill your family with more love!
