Hi, I am Mrs. Resto!

I graduated from Monmouth University in 2013 with a Bachelors of Science in Mathematics and Education, and an ESL Endorsement. I have taught math from 5th grade through Pre-Calculus.

This is my sixth year teaching at Deal School and I could not be more thrilled! I am so excited for this year with you and your child. I teach 6th grade, 7th grade and 8th grade Algebra.

My main goal as a math teacher is make math meaningful, and enjoyable! I teach to have a conceptual understanding, not just procedural. I do this through the use of hands-on activities and manipulatives. I also implement a flipped classroom in grade 6 and 7 to allow for more in-class application versus at home practice.

Here are some fun facts about me; I have a dog named Millie, a cat named Doodle (yes she is orange). My favorite color is blue, but I love watercolors (in case you couldn't tell), and my favorite foods are french fries (especially with salt and vinegar) and buffalo wings (the flats of course)! Love to go to NJ Devils hockey games and am a big Taylor Swift fan. I do not drink coffee (shocking, I know!) and just like every other teacher I know, I love shopping at Target.
