I LOVE being a teacher! I have been teaching now for 11 years. Over these last 11 years I have taught Elementary Music to K-6, 3rd grade, and 5th grade. 5th grade is by far my favorite grade. I love the age of the children and the exciting curriculum that I get to teach my students! I am a huge believer of continuing education. I have my Reading Endorsement, ESL Endorsement, a Masters degree in Instructional Design. I believe that every child has the right to receive an education within a safe learning environment. It is my job to ensure that my students receive the best education they can while they are with me. I, also, believe that all students should feel a sense of worth and feel as though they belong. No student should ever feel less than another student. I want to help my students celebrate the differences in each other and gain confidence in knowing that differences are wonderful and that's what makes life better.
