Bio

I want all of my students to have a love of learning. This can be achieved when students are given the opportunity have fun when they learn. I like to use movement and manipulatives when teaching. I would like the students to feel confident in their ability to learn and to take that confidence with them into their school setting. I believe students can achieve their goals. I like to start lessons with positive affirmations so that start with an open mindset to learning. Some of my hobbies are reading, exercising and travelling. I like to travel inside and outside of the US. Some of the countries I have visited are the United Kingdom, China, Spain and South Africa. I have also lived in many cities throughout the US, like Tulsa, NYC, New Orleans and Miami.
