My teaching experiences include: teaching children in 3rd, 5th, and 6th grades as well as teaching ESL students. I truly enjoy teaching Our Lady of the Wayside students; our students are very friendly, empathetic, and eager to learn! I love those priceless “teachable moments” when students’ faces just shimmer when they’ve learned a particular concept. It is wonderful to witness a child’s learning experience. I appreciate the opportunity to teach 3rd grade in this fantastic community.
