TEACHING EXPERIENCE

Hello, I'm Rachel, and I'm excited to connect with you! With two decades of hands-on experience in primary and middle school classrooms, coupled with my role as a homeschooling mom, I've had the privilege of witnessing the education landscape from various perspectives. My journey spans the realms of classroom teaching, curriculum development, and test creation, as well as providing invaluable instructional coaching to educators. I'm passionate about supporting teachers like you in crafting lessons and activities that not only captivate young minds but also yield meaningful and lasting results. It's my pleasure to share my wealth of knowledge and experience to help you create an enriching learning environment. Let's embark on this educational journey together!

MY TEACHING STYLE

At the heart of my teaching philosophy is the belief that children learn best through active engagement. I strive to be more of a facilitator than a traditional teacher, creating an environment where students take the lead in their own learning journey. It's progress over protection in my lessons.
