Bio
Hello! I’m Ms. Michelle Orecchio-Valenca, an educator with over 24 years of experience teaching Math, Science, ELA, and Social Studies to students in grades 1–12 across Florida, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts. I hold a B.S. in Marine Biology, a M.A. in Education, and a Florida Middle/High School Science Certification. I’ve been honored as Teacher of the Year and mentor fellow teachers to reach their full potential. I believe learning should be exciting and meaningful—just like a day at Disney! I bring creativity, curiosity, and real-world connections into every session so students feel confident and inspired. Whether mastering math, exploring science, or improving reading skills, I make learning personalized, joyful, and full of discovery.
