TEACHING EXPERIENCE

Cory has 6 years of experience teaching 8th grade social studies. Prior to that he spent one year as a special education instructor. Andrea has four years of teaching experience at the 6th grade level teaching social studies and language arts. Andrea is currently staying at home and designing learning experiences for a boy obsessed with anything with wheels.

MY TEACHING STYLE

We love creating materials that make learning hands-on for the students. Something that we know will make it to the dinner table for conversation that night. All of our materials use best teaching practices. Multiple intelligences, differentiation, brain-based learning and student led activities are at the heart of our teaching style.
