About Mrs. Goodwin

Hello Kindergarten Families! I know you are as excited about your child being in kindergarten as I am working and learning with your child. You will love helping your child learn how to read words and then move into learning how to read many books. It will be a wonderful experience for your child and your family.

I want you to get to know me as I get to know your child and your family. I love to teach children! I have been teaching children for thirty-two years and I love every moment of spending time with children! I have taught sixth grade, fourth grade, third grade, first grade, and kindergarten. I love that I started teaching in the higher grades and moved down to the lower grades because I feel like I know where the kindergarten students need to move forward for their education. I love helping your child learn the popcorn words and how to read many books on their own. I have been teaching kindergarten for four years in Greenville County School District.

I am married to my best friend, Steve Goodwin. He was the baseball coach and a business teacher at Blue Ridge High School until he retired five years ago. He now works at First Team Sports in Taylors and loves to talk baseball everyday! We have two children that are both out of the Greenville County School system. Chas has finished Newberry College and is pursuing a degree in the medical field. He enjoys playing baseball and being an empire at baseball games. Jayma is going to be a junior at Winthrop Universtity and is majoring in psychology. She enjoys horseback riding and talking with people.

I love being a teacher at Tigerville! I hope your child enjoys learning at Tigerville as much as I do. Both of my children were educated at Tigerville and still talk about their special times at Tigerville Elementary! I know it will be a fantastic year in kindergarten!
