About Me

After twenty years teaching in a variety of public and private elementary schools in the USA, I know the standards/expectations for each of the elementary grades like the back of my hand. I can easily weave them into almost any lesson or discussion that might arise while following the interests of my individual students. This is really my superpower!

I am currently certified to teach by both the state of Idaho and the American Montessori Society. I'm also a TEFL certified native English speaker.

I pride myself in my patience, kindness, and commitment to my students. I love working with kids, and while I do miss teaching in the classroom, I absolutely love being able to give my online students the focused attention and one-on-one care that these virtual classes are designed to provide.

I am ever grateful for the technology that has made it possible for me to work with a growing number of amazing kiddos around the world, and for the students, parents, and fellow-teachers who have provided their support by spreading the word about my classes!
