My educational philosophy centers on a deep passion for teaching and a commitment to inspiring students to reach their fullest potential. I believe that by fostering strong, meaningful connections with each student, I can create an inclusive and safe environment where everyone feels valued and welcome. This supportive atmosphere not only encourages students to embrace learning but also helps them to grow into lifelong learners. I am dedicated to meeting the diverse needs of my students, tailoring my approach to ensure that each individual has the opportunity to succeed and thrive in their unique educational journey.
In 5th grade, students will experience a transformative year that fosters independence and responsibility in their learning journey. Through engaging in thinking routines and collaborative problem-solving, students will enhance their critical thinking abilities and learn to approach challenges with confidence. As they prepare for the transition to middle school and beyond, they will build a solid foundation for future academic success by cultivating self-motivation and a strong sense of accountability.

I love yoga, outdoors, nature, hiking, and camping.
