TEACHING EXPERIENCE

2009-2010 I worked as a research assistant at Boise State University. 2010-2011 I taught kindergarten at Cynthia Mann Elementary. 2012-2013 I authored and illustrated five children's books and one adult novel. 2013- 2017 I owned my own tutoring service. I work with kids in K-12 in reading, writing, math, and homework support. 2017-2019 I worked with children on the autism spectrum in the public school system. 2019-2020 I worked with teens on the autism spectrum in a private school.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I believe that every student has the potential to learn. Teachers just need to tap into a child's interests and help them achieve their goals.
