I believe children thrive on opportunity and choice. It is my goal to create safe, sensory environments for them to explore their creativity and curiosity about the natural, artistic, and social world around them. I also believe that in order to thrive, children must rely on a structured set of consistently reinforced behavior expectations and etiquette. My caregiving philosophy is to create a nurturing and stimulating environment for children to learn and grow and explore, while also instilling social skills that will allow them to be contributing member of their communities.

I believe that movement, kinesthetic learning and the arts are an integral part of education. I think it is important for children to read fictional and non-fictional literature to enhance their language related skills. I think that respect is very important in the student/teacher relationship. My goal is to make learning fun and interesting so that it is meaningful and able to be retained!
I teach a variety of subjects (reading, writing, science, history, math) whereby I encourage students to explore, investigate, and develop a passion for learning. Students are given a balanced education and a well-rounded preparation for continued education and life experiences.
I encourage students to be responsible by keeping them accountable for their choices. They clearly understand that both positive and negative choices and consequences go hand in hand. Under my instruction, students learn how to be responsible with/for their time, materials, assignments, words, and actions.
I invite students to be a part of a learning community that emphasizes respect and teamwork. Under my care, students learn how to work and play together, encourage and respect each other, communicate positively, and resolve conflicts.
I encourage my students to work toward their full potential by setting high expectations. I provide a structured learning environment whereby students know what is expected of them and how best to achieve their goals. I believe that all students can be successful!
