Bio
I am a retired elementary school teacher. I have 3 children and 8 grandchildren that I love spending time with. I also play the piano. I enjoy teaching students how to read. Reading is so important in our lives, I want everyone to enjoy reading and comprehending what they read. My favorite part of teaching is watching a child's face light up when they begin to read independently! I like to use multisensory activities as I teach because it encourages students to participate and helps with memory.
